Original Penguin and Pete the Penguin have left their mark on a true league of legends. For 70 years, clothing adorned with this iconic bird has been adored by masters of leisure and sports, establishing itself as an American classic.
Today, the penguin icon remains a symbol for those who know how to be authentic, and the new Fall/Winter 2025 collections for men and women highlight why the brand continues to grow in popularity.
Drawing inspiration from contemporary trends and utilizing premium performance fabrics, the brand fuses bold styling with unique designs, aimed at golfers looking to update their wardrobe.
Patterned polo shirts have become a signature of the Original Penguin line, and the Pete’s Stamp Roadmap Polo and All Over Botanical Jacquard Polo are future classics. Featuring moisture-wicking properties and eye-catching patterns, these polo shirts stand out in the menswear collection.
A refined addition to the casual wardrobe is the Pete’s Original Knit Track Jacket, designed with a double-knit fabric for optimal comfort and versatility, both on and off the course.
For cooler days on the green, the lightweight ¼-zip Mixed Media Pullover and long-sleeve Colour Block Jacket, both featuring Aquapel® technology, offer water-repellent protection and performance-ready comfort.
The women’s fashion collection features bold and elegant pieces, such as the Knit Embossed Floral Colorblock Jacket and the Laser Cut Floral Top, for a sophisticated style.
The Women’s Polar Pete collection brings together cold-weather essentials, with the water-repellent Quilted Puffer Jacket, the Midnight Fleece Vest and the plain Solid Sweater with elongated cuffs, for a look that’s both practical and stylish.
Helen Willsmer, Brand Director of Original Penguin Golf, says:
« The brand’s strong identity, style and functionality are embraced by consumers, who recognize the quality of the fabrics and contemporary design we use in our collections.
In the AW25 range, we have found the perfect balance between boldness and functionality, bringing together traditional styles with a modern, refined aesthetic to create a comfortable and confident wardrobe suitable for many settings.”
How it all began…
In 1955, a sportswear icon was born in a most unexpected place. Under the influence of whiskey, Abbot Pederson bought an unlikely drinking companion for his flight home: a stuffed penguin he named Pete. A remark from the flight attendant on board prompted Pederson to embroider the character on his new shirts. Even today, the penguin icon remains a beacon for those who know how to “Be an Original.”
