FAQs
How should I choose the right size?
This shirt is designed with a classic, relaxed fit. If you are typically between two sizes, Lacoste recommends choosing the smaller size.
What material is the polo made of?
The L.12.12 is made from 100% premium cotton Petit Piqué, which is the signature Lacoste knit.
Can I put this shirt in the dryer?
We recommend air drying or using a very low-heat tumble dry setting to prevent shrinkage and maintain the shirt's shape.
What is unique about the buttons?
This model features genuine mother-of-pearl buttons, providing a more elegant and durable finish compared to standard plastic buttons.
Is the crocodile logo ironed on?
No, the iconic crocodile is an embroidered patch consisting of 2,367 stitches, sewn directly onto the chest for authentic heritage appeal.
Is this a slim-fit shirt?
No, this is a classic fit, which provides a more relaxed and comfortable cut compared to slim-fit alternatives.
Troubleshooting
Shirt appears too large after trying on
The L.12.12 features a classic, relaxed cut. If you find the fit too loose, consider exchanging for one size smaller for a more structured look.
Collar losing its crispness
Ensure you are using a low-heat tumble dry or air drying the garment, and avoid high-heat ironing directly on the ribbed collar.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As a garment, the primary "setup" involves ensuring you have selected the correct size based on the classic fit recommendation; if you are between sizes, always opt for the smaller size. To maintain the integrity of the cotton piqué and the shape of the ribbed collar, wash the polo in cool water with like colors. Avoid harsh bleaching agents that could affect the color or fabric fibers. It is recommended to air dry the shirt or use a low-heat setting in the dryer to prevent unnecessary shrinkage and protect the mother-of-pearl buttons. Iron on a low setting if necessary, avoiding direct contact with the embroidered logo.
