It is undisputed that Rene had the nickname “the crocodile”. However the origins of this name are more of a mystery. Some argue the nickname derived from his tenacious play on the courts, others that it was a reference to the size of his nose, however Lacoste himself claims it came from a sporting wager involving a crocodile suitcase. Whatever the truth behind this, the Lacoste logo came to become an internationally recognised lifestyle brand and is argued by many fashion historians to mark the first occasion that a brand’s logo appeared on the outside of a garment.
