Fred Perry has always been different.
Triple Wimbledon champion Fred Perry was born to a cotton spinner. He played and fought his way through always with style, despite the establishment.
In 1952, he founded the Fred Perry brand, designing his first pique shirt the same year. That shirt, the shirt, would transcend sportswear to streetwear on the backs of generation after generation of British youth subcultures. The shirt is the start and end of everything we do, because it’s more than a shirt – it’s a rite of passage, it’s the uniform of the non-uniform. A true icon.
Today, Fred Perry is a global community of 370 employees, all inspired by the Laurel Wreath and what it represents.
Fred Perry has never adjusted its course for anyone. Never been a slave to fashion. Never tied itself to the latest subculture. This philosophy has led to long term collaborations with like-minded partners, from Comme des Garçons to Amy Winehouse and from Raf Simons to Thames.
Our way was given to us by Fred: Always with integrity. Always with personality.
