Just a quick question - does anyone know anything about Izod / Lacoste gators? I thought I read somewhere which was more desirable, but I can't recall. I think white are supposed to be most rare, but I can't remember what was said about green vs blue gators. I checked the label resource, but it didn't address this question - and I'm asking about a particular cardigan I have which has had the label removed. Thanks! -Melanie
That question was debated to NO end when the VC&A board a eBay was new, and as far as I know, nothing was EVER determined. You might try contacting tomigun, who contributed lots of the Lacoste labels, and who still sells lots of it, I believe. Lizzie
LOL, how funny, Lizzie! You'd think there would be either a definitive answer - or just that they're equally desirable (or undesirable, as the case may currently be). I guess I'll just throw it on up for auction and see how it does. I've often wondered while shopping which was better - now I know there's no answer! Thanks, Lizzie :D -Melanie
I just dug up this link through google http://www.blairmag.com/blair2/lacoste/lacoste.html "Green alligator kicks blue alligator's ass, cause blue is often a sign of dreaded 50/50 lacoste, and it is an unnatural creature. got it?" I was wondering myself as I found a blue gator vintage izod months ago and have not listed it
