Mr. Tommy Hilfiger himself contacted us via email to kindly inform us that his brand
NOT Polo Ralph Lauren started the retro capsule wave: “Thanks for the coverage but I was first to reissue the 90’s styles.
️ Tommy.” Please put some RESPECK on that man’s name.

Tommy Hilfiger is taking a page out of
Polo Ralph Lauren’s playbook. The brand is reissuing some of his most popular pieces from their golden era.
Hypebeast is reporting that the designer is bringing back some of his most iconic wears in a limited-edition capsule. Originally launched as a preppy menswear company in 1985, the line was made famous in the 1990’s by Hip-Hop artists such as Snoop Dogg, Grand Puba, Aaliyah and TLC who sported the gear during high profile moments in their career. The items in question are once again available.
Included in the collection is the iconic TOMMY spell out striped rugby Snoop wore to his first ever performance on
Saturday Night Live. Also available are the color blocked windbreaker jackets and flag farmer’s jeans. All the wears feature branding stating they are “hand-selected and reissued for today.”
The Tommy Jeans capsule collection is available at select Tommy Hilfiger locations. You can view the rest of the series below.
