Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Preppy Teddy Bear Hooded Sweatshirt: Choose this if you want a relaxed-fit orange pullover hoodie with a playful statement graphic: a detailed printed teddy bear in layered clothing, finished with 'POLO BEAR by RALPH LAUREN' text below. It pairs a cotton-rich body (81% cotton, 19% recycled polyester) with a soft fleece underside, adjustable drawstring hood, ribbed cuffs and hem, and side-seam hidden pockets, in sizes Small through X-Large. Note the bold, kitsch-inspired bear look divides opinion—one wearer found its 'tacky' charm part of its appeal—so it suits those comfortable with a standout print.[1,2,3,4] | Yacht Club Teddy Bear Sweatshirt: Choose this if you want a Polo Ralph Lauren crewneck sweatshirt with the brand's teddy bear printed on the chest, complete with a nautical scene, caption, and signature underneath. Its soft fleece underside and cotton-rich poly-cotton body (81% cotton, 19% polyester) suit everyday wear, while finely ribbed cuffs and hem, an over-seamed V crew neck, and a woven Polo Ralph Lauren collar label deliver the classic finish. This light pastel blue, long-sleeve style is a statement piece, so it works best if a large front graphic fits your wardrobe.[5,6] | Embroidered Logo Colour-Block Hoodie: Choose this if you want a colour-block pullover hoodie with a 90s flair, pairing a dark charcoal knit body with contrasting navy and blue sleeves, a light heather hood, and a light gray kangaroo pocket. It suits those who like subtle branding, with a white embroidered polo player and cursive Ralph Lauren script on the chest and a POLO RALPH LAUREN neck label, plus drawcords through metal eyelets and ribbed hem and cuffs. The main fabric is 98 percent cotton and 2 percent spandex (the hood lining includes 34 percent recycled polyester), and it comes in sizes small through extra large.[7,8,9,10,11] |

Polo bear aesthetic compared to Jeff Koons art as uniquely cool
The Polo bear reminds me of Jeff Koons’ art in all the best ways; its so kitsch and ‘tacky’ that it makes it unique and cool. Tell the graphic-print t-shirt wearing haters to get off their high horses!

Fit advice from multiple owners: TTS, medium vs large preference
I have bears in crew and hooded in both medium and large (20+). I usually buy a medium in sweatshirts. I prefer a medium if I’m trying to look “presentable” and large if I’m just hanging out. Hope this helps.
