I Wanna Be Nacho Figueras!!!

No. 1
What kind of man do you think Reynolds Still would be? Would he be the guy who is a party hard rock star who happens to have a secret desire to become an interior architect and furniture builder? Is he that guy who creates extraordinary rhinestone covered suits for the world’s most popular singers OR is he an amazing athlete, one of the top polo players in the world? …All a shameless plug for previous posts on the Reynolds Still BLOG. I digress; maybe Reynolds Still is all those men and more! I’m always intrigued by those gentlemen who lead a life of sophistication, class and taste…..that’s why I WANNA BE NACHO FIGUERAS!

Talk about a WAY cool guy, this polo playing sensation, Ralph Lauren POLO spokesman and all around trendsetter, Nacho seems to have it all. Ignacio "Nacho" (I want a cool name in quotes) Figueras, born March 4, 1977 is an Argentine polo player ranked as one of the top 100 polo players in the world. This gentleman developed a love for horses and the game of polo around the age of nine and by the time he was 17 began his professional polo career. Nacho's name has become so synonymous with the sport of polo that the American Museum of Natural History looked to Figueras to donate his polo equipment for their display.

Off the field, Nacho's natural charisma made him the face of Ralph Lauren clothing and Polo fragrance in 2005. How ironic wouldn’t you say to play the sport of polo AND be the spokesman for Ralph Lauren POLO as well?! When Nacho is not working hard to bring attention and glamour to the world of polo play and being the profile of one of the world’s most recognizable men’s fashion labels, Nacho divides his time between the United States and Argentina with his extended family. Sounds like a fascinating life to me!

  3. OK, you're not gonna believe this — especially after our little Steve McQuenn episode. Seriously though, I had several of these photos ready for a Figueras posting. I loved that Elle Decor spread. Great job! Thanks for the post.

  4. I do believe it James! I've had to delete a couple of posts because you've beat me to the punch. I was going to share with readers about the wine barrel wood floors and then was surprise to read your wonderful post. I guess it's true what they say...great minds think alike bud.

    Best regards,
    Reynolds
