New York City native Ralph Lauren began his career designing and selling ties, laying the foundation to start his own company in 1967. Now a fashion empire made up of a family of brands, Ralph Lauren represents a distinctive American perspective rooted in an aspirational lifestyle. Polo Ralph Lauren was launched in 1968, offering designs that are clean, timeless and ultrawearable.
This sweater knocks it out of the park! It is not too big or too small, just right. It hits right at the waist, the arms are comfortable, and the yarn is cozy. Perfect for San Diego winters/cold summer nights.

Sizing isn’t consistent with other RL Sweaters.
I was highly disappointed when this sweater arrived. Not with the quality but with the sizing. This sweater would be perfect if the sizing was consistent with all of Ralph Lauren’s other sweaters. You absolutely have to go off of their product sizing charts and NOT what your actual size is even if it’s your size for all of their other products.

Size Up Two Sizes
This is a follow up review to a one star review I gave this sweater a week ago! My previous review was a thumbs down for both size and quality. Well jt turns out it’s best to reference the size chart of the sweater rather than the size chart for the body. If you follow that chart, it’s true to size. Once I reviewed the sweater size chart and compared it to the Polo Bear Size chart and ordered accordingly, the size small sweater I. The American Flag style fits exactly the same as the XXS in the Polo Bear Style sweaters. Oddly, when a sweater fits right, the quality seems to improve — I know that’s not actually the case but it sure did feel like lesser quality of a sweater when the first size I purchased (the XXS) fit like it was painted on. I still feel the Polo Bear Sweaters are a tad better quality BUT I do absolutely love the flag sweater now that I have the correct size. It’s soft and might weight, perfect for a cooler Memorial Day and Independence Day evening on the water. This truly is a must have item for every wardrobe. I purchased the grey and plan to order the ivory as well.

great sweater but not all American
Beautiful sweater, I did not give it 5 stars as the entire sweater as well as the materials are not all American made. I expected an all American made product at this price point and most importantly portraying the American Flag
