Founded in 1993, RRL by Ralph Lauren can be called the legacy brand of the retail giant. Handpicked by Ralph Lauren himself, retailers that sell the brand are selling the Ralph Lauren legacy, which draws inspiration from old American western movies. Lauren, who was "fascinated by 'real clothes'," always gravitated towards garment that held function over fashion, purpose over form. RRL aims to make clothes that will eventually become rugged and well-worn, long-standing vintage pieces that people would wear with pride despite their age. RRL only utilizes the finest denim and leather from all over the world in crafting these legacy pieces, and in slow production—after all, beauty takes time.
