Over the decades the house built a complete American world out of Ivy League tailoring, western ranch wear and military surplus, and in 1993 added RRL, a workwear line with a more archival bent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJapan is a natural home for that vocabulary. The Ivy look reached Tokyo in the postwar years through VAN Jacket and the 1965 photo book Take Ivy, and the trad and amekaji traditions that grew from it have kept Ralph Lauren close to Japanese wardrobes ever since. Well-cared-for knitwear, oxford shirts, chinos and outerwear from earlier decades are easy to find here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLook at fabric hand, label generation and wear at collars and cuffs, and use the size notes on each piece rather than the label alone, since cuts have changed across the decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background:#f6f1e7;border-left:6px solid #d7b56d;padding:18px;border-radius:10px;margin:22px 0\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 6px;font-weight:bold\"\u003eThe Hunting Salon™\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0\"\u003eIf you are looking for a particular Ralph Lauren, Polo or RRL piece, the \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/hunting-salon%E2%84%A2\"\u003eHunting Salon™\u003c\/a\u003e can assist discreetly with search, verification and shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCurator’s note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Read \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/ametora-the-intriguing-blend-of-american-trad-style-and-japanese-precision\"\u003eAmetora\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/what-is-amekaji-japanese-casual-discipline\"\u003eWhat Is Amekaji?\u003c\/a\u003e for the Japanese side of the story.
