About
Description
Original Penguin is a brand that has a fascinating origin story. In 1955, while on a sales trip for the Munsingwear brand, an ambitious salesman named Abbot Pederson found himself in New York City with some time to spare. He decided to stop by a local bar for a few drinks and ended up taking a wrong turn down a Manhattan street, where he stumbled upon a taxidermistโs shop.
Feeling lonely, he purchased a penguin and named him Pete to keep him company on his flight home. Unfortunately, during the journey, Pederson accidentally broke Pete's head off. A stewardess then jokingly wrapped Pederson's necktie around the penguin's neck.
Inspired by this incident, Pederson decided to immortalize Pete on a shirt, and an iconic symbol was thus born. Today, Original Penguin is known for merging iconic American Sportswear with a contemporary style, offering a diverse range of products that cater to a full lifestyle. From clothing to accessories, their collection is designed for originals, by originals.
With a heritage that counts legendary figures like Frank Sinatra and Clint Eastwood as fans, Original Penguin continues to provide high-quality and stylish options for individuals who appreciate timeless fashion. Don't miss out on this unique brand and its captivating story
