Lacoste stated:“For the endangered species of this world, the crocodile abandons its ancestral place,”.They have never changed their green croc since its debut 85 years ago.
The globally recognized logo was designed as an homage to the brand’s founder René Lacoste, who was dubbed “The Crocodile” because of how he dealt with his opponents on the tennis court.
The new limited edition logos were produced using the same green coloring and embroidery style as the crocodile. Each of the designs were produced in limited numbers, corresponding to the remaining population size of each species in the world.
For example only 350 polos were produced featuring the Sumatran Tiger, whose main threats are poaching and deforestation. The smallest batch at just 30 pieces features the California porpoise who due to overfishing is one of the most threatened mammal spe
Each Save Our Species polo was retailed at $185, and the total collection of 1,775 are already sold out, with the profits of each sale donated to the IUCN conservation.
