Fred Perry Reissues Original Twin Tipped Polo Ecru Dark Caramel Dark Caramel

The original Fred Perry twin tipped polo shirt. Expertly made in Leicester, England, and featuring Fred Perry's iconic streamlined fit. A staple of British subcultural attire for 60 years. Made in Leicester, England / Cotton piqué / Slightly boxier fit than the original M3600 with a flat, sophisticated hem / Twin tipped collar and cuffs / New fixed inset two-button placket The M12 polo, a true classic crafted in Leicester, England, has remained unchanged since Fred Perry first designed it in the 1950s. Legend has it that a Lillywhites customer asked for a Fred Perry polo to be customized with their football team's colors. Fred then decided to subtly add the team's colors to the collar and cuffs. And so the M12 was born. This new model, the first to feature our distinctive 5-4-4 twin tipping, propelled the brand from sportswear to streetwear. Featuring Fred's iconic streamlined fit, with lines slightly boxier than the M3600, this model is the result of meticulous craftsmanship where each polo is woven, dyed, cut, embroidered, and hand-finished in Leicester, England. This version offers a striking reinterpretation of the original model using a white, ice, and maroon color palette, inspired by the colors of the 70s West Ham United football club. A version inspired by the bold attire of 70s subcultures. We are exploring new ways to reduce our impact on the planet.
