Polo was Ralph Lauren's first line of menswear when it debuted in 1967. If you are considering purchasing a Polo Ralph Lauren men's suit, there are a few things you should know about this line of businesswear.
What is Polo Ralph Lauren Purple Label?Polo Ralph Lauren Purple is Ralph Lauren's brand of tuxedos and evening apparel. The line consists of fabrics crafted with Italian tailoring. Ralph Lauren also makes suits under other labels, such as:
- Polo Ralph Lauren Black: An extension of the Purple line that includes casual and semi-formal suits.
- Polo Ralph Lauren Blue: A line of sportswear and tailored clothing, including suits.
- Polo Ralph Lauren Green: A more economic version of the Blue line.
Polo Ralph Lauren suits are made all over the world. It's not uncommon for different Polo Ralph Lauren designs from the same line to be made in Hong Kong, China, Bolivia, and most commonly in Sri Lanka or the Phillippines.
How do you find the right size Polo suit?Like all suits, Polo Ralph Lauren conforms to certain standard size breakdowns. There are three numbers to consider. The first number refers to your chest size, the second to your waist, and the third to your inseam. A letter "S," "R," or "L" may accompany the chest size, indicating short, regular, or long. To find your size, measure your chest, waist, and inseam, and select the product that corresponds to these measurements. Additionally, bear the following in mind:
- Short: Sized for men who are between 5 feet 4 inches and 5 feet 6 inches tall
- Regular: Sized for men who are between 5 feet 7 inches and 5 feet 11 inches tall
- Long: Sized for men who are between 6 feet and 6 feet 3 inches tall
- Slim-Fit: Conforms to the above but tends to be form-fitting and tapered in the shoulders, arms, torso, thighs, seat, and lower leg.
- Look for short, regular, or long when purchasing Ralph Lauren sport jackets as well, in order to obtain the correct fit.
Polo Ralph Lauren slim-fit fashions change seasonally, but each year brings new slim-fit concepts, available under each of the associated Polo Ralph Lauren brands. There are also slim-fit jackets to consider. Ralph Lauren brands that often feature fitted men's designs include:
- Lauren by Ralph Lauren
- Polo Ralph Lauren
- Ralph by Ralph Lauren
Suits made of wool by Polo Ralph Lauren should always be dry cleaned.
