Men's Brown Ralph Lauren Prl X Tópa Standing Sage Fringe Jacket

Presenting Polo Ralph Lauren Lauren x TÓPA, a continuing collaboration of the Ralph Lauren Lauren Artist in Residence programme, reflecting our evolved design approach with the artisans and communities that inspire us. This collection features the artistry of wife and husband duo Jocy and Trae Little Sky – founders of the clothing brand TÓPA and proud members of the Oceti Sakowin (People of Seven Council Fires); Jocy is of Dakota and Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nations (MHA/Dakota) and Trae is Oglala Lakota and Stoney Nakoda. Their creations combine modern silhouettes with distinctive Indigenous cultural elements to honour and preserve ancestral traditions while reflecting the beauty and vibrancy of their Northern Plains heritage. The name TÓPA, meaning "four" in the languages of the Oceti Sakowin, symbolises the four directions, four seasons, four stages of life and four meaningful colours. Made with roughout sheepskin suede patinaed for a worn-in look, this unisex jacket features intricate hand-beadwork that depicts the Sage Blossom, a flower that is revered by members of the Oceti Sakowin for its ability to cleanse, soothe and call upon ancestors. Its cascading fringe trim is a traditional detail that is both decorative and functional, allowing rainwater to shed quickly to help keep the wearer dry.
