Supreme vs. Original
Supreme version
About the original
The Lacoste LCST Waist Bag is a belt bag made from coated canvas with a zippered main compartment, a front slip pocket, an adjustable clip-on waist strap, and the signature green crocodile logo embroidered on the front panel. Lacoste, founded in 1933 in Paris by tennis player René Lacoste and knitwear manufacturer André Gillier, introduced the sport polo shirt with an embroidered logo — a first in menswear — and later expanded into footwear and accessories under the sportswear-forward LCST sub-label. The SS2018 Supreme collab reissued the LCST waist bag in five saturated colorways with co-branded graphics replacing the standard Lacoste lettering, retailing at $98 and selling out the week of release.
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.
