Izod is an American apparel brand with roots in London, where tailor Arthur James “Jack” Izod opened his first shop in 1922. The name was acquired and brought to the United States in 1937 by David Crystal, Inc., establishing a new line of American sportswear. The brand's identity was cemented through a pivotal partnership with Lacoste, lasting from 1952 to 1993, during which the Izod Lacoste polo shirt, with its famous crocodile logo, became a definitive piece of the 1980s American “preppy” uniform.
