Ralph Lauren Debuts ’90s-Inspired “Downhill Skier” Collection
Brand: Polo Ralph Lauren
Season: FW18
Key Pieces: The knitted sweaters with a Polo logo crest, along with that limited edition Downhill Skier long-sleeve polo shirt are great. Colorblock outerwear puffer pieces, as well as the all-over patterned edition are strong too.
Editor’s Notes: Following the relaunch of its iconic “Polo Hi Tech” collection, Ralph Lauren now unveils its “Downhill Skier” capsule, a lineup of apparel that infuses the brand’s ski-inspired ’80s and ’90s collections through the usage of color-blocking, crests, and downhill skier motifs.
Encompassing heavy knit sweaters, technical jackets, accessories, and a limited edition polo shirt, the capsule takes cues from some the most collected styles in the brand’s 50-year history, mixing vintage ski graphics with other archival designs from the era, but reinvented with updated fabrics.
If you like what you see, head over to Ralph Lauren’s website for more information, but the limited edition Downhill Skier polo shirt featured below, is slated to launch exclusively on the POLO app beginning October 11.
