Fred Perry men's: Twin Tipped polos, t-shirts and pea coats
The Fred Perry men page brings together the legacy of a legendary player: Twin Tipped polo shirts with striped borders, M3600, Plain and double-buttoned, Ringer t-shirts and double band, cotton jackets and sweatshirts, all featuring the laurel crown. A classic of English style.
Fred Perry, from the court to English style
Three titles at Wimbledon in the thirties, then a brand bearing his name in 1952: the journey of Fred Perry goes from the court to fashion. His embroidered laurels have appealed to mods, skinheads, britpop, well beyond tennis.
The polo shirts
Twin Tipped
Two fine stripes outline the collar and the ribbed cuffs of the Twin Tipped, made from cotton piqué: this is the piece immediately associated with the brand. Its Modern version updates the cut.
M3600 and Plain
Simple, the M3600 and the Plain focus on sobriety: only the laurel adorns the chest.
The double-button polo
More original, the double-button polo refreshes the classic shape.
The t-shirts
The Ringer t-shirt, with its contrasting neckline and sleeves, brings back a classic from past years. The t-shirts with double piping or double stripes extend the spirit of the polos.
The pea coat and sweatshirts
The cotton pea coat, inspired by sailors, offers a stylish mid-season piece. The sweatshirts, featuring an embroidered crown, can be worn over a polo or t-shirt.
Which polo to choose?
- Twin Tipped: the iconic double-piped version.
- M3600 or Plain: the plain polo, versatile.
- Twin Tipped Modern: a more contemporary cut.
- Double-button: for a unique touch.
How to wear a Fred Perry polo?
With a raw denim and derbies for a mod style, with chinos and loafers for a casual office look, under a pea coat or a Harrington jacket in mid-season. Buttoned up, it takes on a more assertive look.
Choosing your size
The fit is quite snug: if you prefer a looser fit, go up a size. The Twin Tipped Modern has a slightly different cut: check the size guide.
Care instructions
Machine wash at 30 degrees, polo turned inside out, to protect embroidery and borders; hang to dry, collar properly reshaped.
