About the original
The Supreme/LACOSTE Pique Pant is a fleece-lined sweatpant cut from LACOSTE's cotton petit-pique fabric, the same textured knit René Lacoste introduced on his 1933 tennis polo. It has elastic cuffs and waistband with an interior drawcord, on-seam hand pockets and a back zip pocket, plus bottom leg gussets with zip closures and jacquard LACOSTE-Supreme logo tape running through the gusset and back pocket zips. LACOSTE was founded in Troyes, France in 1933 by seven-time Grand Slam champion René Lacoste and knitwear manufacturer André Gillier, and petit pique remains the brand's signature fabric a century later. The FW19 collaboration released September 26, 2019 at $148 in red, black, yellow, pink, light blue, and navy.
About LACOSTE
Lacoste S.A. is a French apparel company founded in 1933 by tennis champion Rene Lacoste and textile manufacturer Andre Gillier in Troyes. Lacoste designed the L.12.12 polo shirt in 1933 using petit pique cotton to replace the long-sleeved woven shirts worn on court, and the crocodile embroidered on its chest is considered the first visible logo on a consumer garment. The company expanded into footwear, fragrance, and leather goods, and its core tennis-adjacent sportswear remains in continuous production. Supreme and Lacoste have released multiple co-branded seasonal collections since 2017 spanning polos, track sets, and bags.
