The Ralph Lauren Polo Lace-Up Wool Intarsia Sweater = "Suicide. It's A Suicide!"

CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS:  Yes, what was once old has become new again as a few choice Ralph Lauren Polo classic motifs have gradually worked their way into his most recent ready-to-wear collections.  The latest such design to enjoy a bit of renewed and reimagined life is the Alpine downhill skier employed on this Ralph Lauren Polo Lace-Up Wool Intarsia Sweater.

O.G.'s have seen this before and will immediately recognize this design as being very similar to the precursor to the "suicide" ski man design which we have seen in various incarnations over the years culminating with the release of the iconic Polo Ski 92 range featuring a turtleneck (me no like ... lol), a button down and the crown jewel of the collection - the goose down coat.  Ralph Lauren's constant attention to W.hite A.nglo S.axon P.rotestant style ideals remain very true to the original - only updating this 100% Shetland wool beaut with a leather lace up tall mockneck collar.

Now, would I drop $495.00 on this knit?  Ehhhhhhhh, probably not ... lol. Don't mind me though ... I just have an extremely hard time rationalizing paying full retail for Ralph ... lol.  That's Brooklyn for ya! Good shit.
