Chaps, launched in 1978 as a more casual offshoot of Ralph Lauren, became known for its accessible take on classic American prep. The rugby shirt emerged from the sport of rugby football, where players needed a durable, heavyweight cotton top with a reinforced collar and placket. By the 1980s and 1990s, bold striped rugby shirts like this one shifted from the pitch to street and campus style, embraced by preppy, skate, and hip-hop scenes alike. Today, these wide-stripe designs read both sporty and nostalgic, pairing easily with denim or chinos for a laid-back yet intentional look. Vintage Chaps pieces in particular offer that Ralph Lauren-adjacent aesthetic at a friendlier price point while still feeling authentically retro.
