I lost weight and dropped from a Large to a Medium. I have a huge collection of Ralph Lauren items in Large that I will be posting over time, as well as a large number of Medium items that were meant as replacement items but didn't work out for whatever reason. This shirt was purchased as part of a bundle on Poshmark. I’ve taken the items I wanted and am selling this remaining item. Since I wasn’t the original owner I can’t really say what this shirt looked like brand new. The red is softer. It is not bright. Pony is navy. It seems in pretty good shape to me and looks like one of those RL items that's meant to look like a favorite shirt you've had in your closet for a while. I have a busy law practice so please forgive any delays in responding or shipping.
