Golf apparel brand BEAMS has once again teamed up with iconic American heritage label Polo Ralph Lauren to launch an all-new capsule that draws inspiration from The Polo Big Collection, which was accompanied by one of the brand's most iconic marketing campaigns in the '90s.
BEAMS and Polo's past collaborations have focused on reworking classic Polo pieces such as polo shirts, oxfords, hoodies, and chinos. However, the latest capsule from these two brands turns its attention specifically to summerwear, reviving vintage chino shorts and a range of short-sleeve tees. In addition, the capsule includes a variety of summer-ready accessories such as navy and white polo socks and reversible bucket hats, which arrive in two colorways: white/navy and green/khaki.
