As the title implies, which would you prefer between these two.

OT: The latter being more pricey (here in Singapore) kaya mejo nakaka panghinayang bumili. Do we have this in Manila?

Dami ring fake dyan na Fred Perry sa Singapore. Lalo na yung "July Singapore Sale" sa Robinson's? Sabi nila orig. Pero may orig bang nasa S$20 lang presyo?

Yung La Coste outlet sa NAIA 1, may sale items. Up to 30% discount. Pero very limited yung mg items nila. Unlike yung nasa Robinson's Galleria, ang daming pamimilian.

Pero kahit ganun, napabili pa rin ako. Laki bawas eh......

Yun yung dating orig. Sa France gawa. Tinanong ko nga yung sales clerk sa NAIA, kung saan gawa yung LaCoste nila? Sabi sa kin...."Sa Asia po...."

Saan sa Asia? It's either Vietnam or Thailand daw. Kasi wala nakasulat sa label nya kung saan gawa. Unlike yung mga nakita ko...nakasulat minsan, made in Peru. Sabi ko nga eh, baka naman class A lang ito like yung nasa Greenhills. Orig naman daw sabi ng SC.

Tol siguro kung France gawa mas mahal ang labor roon . Kagaya rin ng mga Rubber shoes noon na Adidas kagaya ng pro model o superstar model France gawa . Ngayon puro China na para mas mura labor kahit sa U.S. galing pero specification ng U.S . masusunod.

I have 6 Fred Perry polo shirts already and 6 Lacoste polo shirts, but I like F Perry better for the ff reasons: Fred Perry is very rare no fakes yet unlike Lacoste you see a lot wearing them; Fred Perry is more expensive therefore only a few have it; both have the same quality but Fred Perry is a better tennis player than Rene Lacoste which make it more classy and elegant. Both players became rank No 1 in their time but Fred Perry has 14 grand slam titles against Rene Lacoste's 10 and considered by many as one of the greatest tennis players of all time. Fred Perry was the first tennis player to win all 4 tennis grand slam tournament: Australian Open, French Open, The Wimbledon and US Open. Only seven players did this, the other 6 were: Don Budge, Rod Laver, Roy Emerson, Andre Agassi, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. Rene Lacoste does not have an Australian Open title.
