In an unexpected collaboration, French menswear label Lacoste, which specializes in traditionally "preppy" attire, has teamed up with iconic skate brand Thrasher. Here, the two brands have joined forces to deliver a concise capsule that consists of various co-branded pieces, including polo shirts, hoodies, tracksuits, t-shirts, and a pair of socks.
The unique co-branded logo merges Lacoste's signature crocodile with Thrasher's flaming 'THRASHER' text and is featured on most of the collection's pieces. The brands describe the collaboration "merging of two distinctive classics," which, traditionally, have quite different fans.
For those interested, the Lacoste x Thrasher apparel capsule is available to purchase online on both brand's websites as well as at select retailers throughout the United States.
