Ralph Lauren has always believed in timelessness. From his first tie collection, designed in 1967, to the beloved vintage pieces he wears and references, his vision for quality craftsmanship and enduring style has never wavered.
Timelessness is about creating pieces to be worn year after year, from generation to generation. Crafting classic styles with the highest quality of materials allows products to only get better with age. The more they are worn, the more they tell a story, creating life far beyond a single season for decades to come.
Whether it’s the iconic Polo shirt in thick-gauge cotton or the cable-knit sweater in Italian cashmere, Ralph Lauren aims to produce with thoughtfulness, beauty, and care, so the products created can live on and live again.
“We have always stood for values and things that last. Things that are timeless and enduring. Things to cherish as they age and that never go out of style.”

Love It Longer
To ensure your Ralph Lauren product maintains quality for generations to come, always follow the care tips provided on each tag. For six of our most iconic products, we’ve sourced extra care tips from our design team
Oxford Shirt
Prevent the collar from wrinkling at the seams by reducing agitation. Don’t overload the washing machine, smooth wrinkles before hang drying, iron the collar outside to center with steam, and use a good hanger and collar stays
Polo Shirt
To maintain its shape, fasten all buttons before using a gentle wash cycle. Reshape and smooth wrinkles after washing and lay the shirt flat to dry. Fold the shirt for storage instead of hanging
Cable-Knit Cashmere
Spot clean with a cloth, cool water, and mild detergent; rinse and air dry. To prevent pilling, store folded and wear with smooth fabrics to reduce friction. Use a cashmere comb, sweater stone, or fabric shaver to remove pills
RL67 Jacket
To freshen without dry cleaning, use a clothes brush after each wear and a mild detergent made for wool to spot clean. Store with cedar blocks or scent sachets on a padded hanger or one with a wide, rounded shape
Polo ID Bag
Do not overload or carry heavy objects to maintain the shape. Use a soft towel for daily cleaning. If it encounters water, wipe excess and hang it to dry. Store in a cool, dry place in the original packaging gently stuffed with tissue
Denim Trucker Jacket
Denim doesn’t need frequent washing. Spot clean with a fabric refresher spray between wears. If washing, use a gentle cycle and lay flat or hang to dry. Store away from direct sunlight to avoid fading
