Lacoste was founded in 1933 by tennis champion René Lacoste in France. The Champs-Élysées Paris flagship is the brand's spiritual home, and French boutiques stock the broadest L.12.12 polo color range and heritage collaborations. France's 20% VAT yields roughly a 12% refund on purchases over €100.01, easily met by buying two or three polos in a single transaction.

No. VAT refunds are only available for in-store purchases made in Europe. Online orders shipped internationally are already VAT-exempt.
High-value items (typically over €1,000) may require physical inspection at customs. Keep your purchase in carry-on luggage, not checked bags.
You must validate your VAT refund at your last EU point of departure, not your final destination.
With TravelMoney, refunds are processed instantly once validated at customs. Standard tax-free services can take 4-12 weeks.
