if the buttons look the same. authentic lacoste polos have mother of pearl buttons, which means no button will look exactly alike
the crocodile should be halfway between the first button and the bottom of the slit..if its even with the bottom of the slit, its a fake
the material is much heavier and overall higher quality...itll be easy to tell from the material.
also, lacoste only makes sizes up to a 9. to my knowledge, any size higher than a 9 is prolly a fake. ive seen em on ebay all they way up to a size 11 and 12 LOL
Just checked out all 5 of the shirts I had, and the passed all the things you said, mine is a size 7. And that was just a typo, the tags did say $72 on them.

As a sidenote, I wore one to costco one day to compare with, because they had lacoste polos for sale at $40/shirt. And I could not find one visual difference, or material difference between their shirts and mine.
