In a surprising turn of events, the star symbol of Ralph Lauren's fashion empire has been portrayed as an art thief in a new cinematic production.
Ralph Lauren's iconic mascot, the Polo Bear, is making a big leap onto the silver screen with the release of the animated film, The Polo Bear Chronicles: Operation Black Tie. Scheduled to debut on August 14, 2025, at 9 AM ET on YouTube[1][2][3][4][5], this stylish spy-themed short film promises to be an exciting venture for both fans of the Polo Bear and animation enthusiasts alike.
The storyline unfolds as the Polo Bear, known for his calm and refined demeanour, leaves his jazz-filled Manhattan life behind to embark on a sophisticated art recovery mission. Accompanied by a streetwise pigeon sidekick[10], the Polo Bear navigates through various locations such as brownstones, beaches, polo games, and glittering galas, all while outwitting socialites and security[12]. The mission is to recover priceless artwork, a feat that is described as the most refined art recovery of the century[11].
The film, which marks Ralph Lauren's first foray into animation[2], follows the Polo Bear as he solves a mysterious theft[3]. In the teaser released on Monday[6], the Polo Bear is depicted living in a Manhattan townhouse with a taste for the finer things[9]. A teaser trailer for the film was also dropped today[5], offering a glimpse into the film's stylish and comedic tone, which beautifully encapsulates Ralph Lauren’s timeless fashion aesthetic[1][3].
For those eager to catch a sneak peek, stills from the project are available to view[15].
