Bomber Jacket | T-Shirt | Chinos

Growing up, I played every sport you could think of. Whether I was out on the soccer field, teeing up the golf ball, playing baseball or in the swimming pool. I kept active throughout my younger years and loved doing so. The one sport that always spoke to me though was tennis. It’s a game of “love” that asks you to “match” its high energy back and forth with clothes that allow you to do so.

A storied brand, Lacoste, has always blended the art of staying stylish during high intensity activity with its line of super chic menswear for after and before play. As we go into a season that asks us to balance the departure of warm weather with an occasional cool breeze (if you’re lucky in the south). So I went back to my roots, back to the court, to show you some of my favorite ways to show off the Lacoste look.

I was immediately attracted to a super comfy bomber jacket that hugs in all the right places and made of a soft material. Like your favorite cardigan but cooler, this classic bomber style is a hybrid design with color block details and a modern slim fit. Another must is a transitional v-neck shirt that allows you to stay cool when the game heats up. It’s an essential t-shirt in soft pima cottton, finished with the Lacoste signaure croc logo. I paired this look with a pair of slim fit chinos but you could certainly rock it with jeans or slacks as well.

With a brand that has perfected its preppy and sporty look since 1930, I felt right at home slipping on the alligator branded pieces and getting ready for a fall to remember.
