Description:
This is an original 1990s deadstock Chaps Ralph Lauren sport coat, preserved in its original retail state with all tags attached. Unlike modern versions of the brand, this piece dates to the era when the label was still a direct sub-brand of Ralph Lauren, prioritizing traditional Canadian tailoring and high-grade materials.
The fabric is a heavyweight, 100% Pure New Wool in a classic brown Glen Plaid. The weave is dense and structured, providing a clean drape that resists wrinkling—a hallmark of Woolmark-certified virgin wool.
Technically, the jacket features a period-correct three-button front, notched lapels, and a single back vent. It is finished with polished horn-style buttons and a full satin lining. As a Union Made garment from Canada, the internal construction is more robust than modern mass-market alternatives, designed for longevity rather than fast-fashion turnover.
A rare find for collectors of vintage American heritage wear or those seeking a high-quality, professional staple in pristine condition.
Brand: Chaps Ralph Lauren
Label: In the early 2000s, the brand was largely licensed out and the "Ralph Lauren" name was removed from the label entirely. Collectors and vintage enthusiasts specifically look for the "Ralph Lauren" text on these tags as it indicates higher quality materials and construction compared to modern Chaps items.
Material: 100% Wool
Condition: NWT Deadstock condition, MINT with all outside pockets still sewn shut.
Era: 1990s
