spring cleaning and bleeding Lacoste shirts, anyone?

It's spring time and always a good time to do some cleaning! Thankfully, you can tick off your Lacoste classic shirt from your major to-dos.

Do Lacoste shirts come in S, M, L sizes?

Time and again, a lot of folks come to us asking about Lacoste polo sizing. Do the apparel come in S, M, L or XL?
