Rugby by Ralph Lauren Sweaters Make Us Say 'Arghhh'

Since when did Ralph Lauren get cool? Seriously, for the longest time only douches who wanted you to know they had money wore that shiz. Now it seems that they have gotten the hint, and released a series of Rugby by Ralph Lauren sweaters.

So far we have only been able to get our sticky little hands (from subsisting only on a diet of salt water taffy) on a couple of images. But the ones we have, show a super cool skull and cross bones motif any trendy type, who hates brands would be happy to wear. Check out the Rugby by Ralph Lauren sweaters.
