U.S. Polo Assn. has opened its Global Flagship store at Bayside Marketplace, expanding its retail presence in the United States.
The new 3,000 sq ft store replaces the brand’s earlier Bayside location and has been designed as an immersive retail destination featuring men’s, women’s, and kids’ collections alongside the brand’s sport-inspired identity.
The launch event was attended by athletes, influencers, and industry guests. Professional polo player Lucas Escobar was present, along with Olympic athletes Nicole Frank Rodriguez, Oumy Diop, and Chiara Pellacani.
J. Michael Prince said, “Situated in Bayside Marketplace, one of the busiest and most important international retail destinations in Miami, our U.S. Polo Assn. Bayside Miami Global Flagship truly reflects the scale, energy, and heritage of our multi-billion-dollar sports brand. U.S. Polo Assn. is proud to welcome global consumers to a location that represents the brand's youthful and inspirational style, shares the story of our authentic connection to the sport of polo, and supports the brand's continued global growth in one of the world's most dynamic markets.”
The store includes large LED displays, expanded inventory, and a layout aimed at improving customer flow while combining retail with brand storytelling.
Cliff Lelonek added, “As one of the brand's most visible U.S. retail locations, the Bayside Flagship represents a strategic milestone in our continued expansion and commitment to delivering a modern, sport-inspired retail experience in internationally connected cities.”
The opening also aligns with the brand’s global Spring 2026 campaign, “The Polo Shirt: An Icon Born from the Game.”
