Classic staples reimagined with a trendy twist. This summer’s must-have polo shirts from Captain Sunshine, Lacoste, and Beauty & Youth are now available.

The rainy season has officially begun in Tokyo, and the gloomy weather shows no signs of letting up. But once we get through this dreary spell, summer will finally be here! With that in mind, we’d like to introduce a special piece you’ll want to slip on this early summer. The crocodile logo on the left chest—Fuinam readers, you’ve surely seen it before, haven’t you?

That’s right—this is a luxurious piece created through a special collaboration between KAPTAIN SUNSHINE and BEAUTY&YOUTH, based on the “L1212” polo shirt, a classic that LACOSTE has been releasing continuously. While retaining the authentic design, it’s particularly distinctive for incorporating the skipper design, which is a current trend.

The unique texture created by the special finishing process, combined with the iconic crocodile logo that has been intentionally yellowed, gives the piece a vintage feel, as if it had stood the test of time for decades.

Another highlight is the array of special details unique to this collection, such as the “K.S.” initials embroidered on the inside of the collar to symbolize the collaboration. Why not choose your favorite from the lineup of five colors—white, dark brown, red, navy, and purple—and add it to your wardrobe?

The release date is Friday, June 12. After being unveiled at "Beauty & Youth" and Captain Sunshine stores, the items will go on sale at both brands' online stores starting at 12:00 p.m.

This polo shirt adds just the right touch of flair to a classic staple, making it the perfect companion for the coming season. If you're interested, check out the details below.
