Polo Ralph Lauren unveils its “Heritage Icons” collection, taking to the streets of New York. The brand’s refined aesthetic meets varsity style with a wardrobe cut from tweed, cashmere, and corduroy.

The collection takes its cue from a weekend spent south of 14th, where timeless classics meet modern attitude.

At its core, “Heritage Icons” recontextualizes Polo’s signature pieces, elevating staples like the Oxford shirt, cable-knit sweater, and chinos. These sartorial essentials form the collection’s foundation.

Key pieces include a plaid Oxford shirt, distressed chinos with extra-wide belt loops and nautical flair, and a unisex cable-knit sweater crafted from Italian cashmere.

Tweed and herringbone take center stage in Polo Ralph Lauren’s tailoring. The RL67 herringbone jacket, crafted in Italy with handwoven wool from Ireland’s Magee 1866, is a standout piece celebrating its 50th anniversary.
