I used to love Lacoste shirts and products since I was a kid. I have polos that I bought 12 years ago and still look good. Also a very nice pullover, 10 years old and still looks new. Unfortunately the quality of the products appears to have dropped massively in the last few years, without any corresponding drop in price. The polos seem to have become thinner and to shrink and lose their colour with use. A pullover I received as a present last Christmas and which I must have worn no more than 10 times just broke while I was pulling it down - thumb went straight through! Not worth the money anymore, which is sad.
