The Polo Bear was a collectible Steiff teddy bear decked out in a Ralph Lauren rig, given to the designer as a birthday present during the company’s early years.Lauren thought the bear was so cool that he made them available to customers. Eventually, he got the idea to put it on sweaters, and in 1991 the Polo Bear sweater debuted in the line. Since then, they’ve become one of the company’s most popular (albeit unofficial) mascots.The "Bring It Back" edition of the Polo Bear sweater drops tomorrow. There will be one version for men and another for women.Men’s Polo Bear Sweater, $295, available on September 27 at RLVintage.com.***FREE FAST SHIPPING! Shipped with USPS Priority Mail***
