Fred Perry Reissues Original Twin Tipped Polo Navy / Oxblood

The original Fred Perry twin tipped polo shirt. Expertly made in Leicester, England, and featuring Fred's signature streamlined fit. A staple of British subcultural attire for 60 years. The M12 polo shirt, an authentic classic made in Leicester, England, has not changed at all since Fred Perry first designed it in the 1950s. Legend has it that a customer at Lillywhites asked to customize a Fred Perry polo shirt with their football team's colours. Fred then decided to subtly add the team colours to the collar and cuffs. And that's how the M12 was born. This new model, the first to feature our distinctive 5-4-4 twin tipping, transformed the brand from sportswear to streetwear. Featuring Fred's iconic streamlined fit, which is slightly squarer than the M3600, this model is the result of truly meticulous craftsmanship in which each polo shirt is woven, dyed, cut, embroidered, and hand-finished in Leicester, England. -Made in Leicester, England -Cotton piqué -Squarer fit than the original M3600 model with a sophisticated flat hem -Twin tipped collar and cuffs -New fixed inserted placket with two-button closure -Recycled threads and tipping. -Buttons made from recycled materials. -Embroidered laurel wreath referencing the use of sustainably sourced materials. -100% Cotton -Machine Wash -Style M12 68A
