About Original Penguin
What's in the wardrobe
Polo shirts remain the signature piece, joined by button-down shirts, graphic and plain T-shirts, chinos, jumpers and outerwear for colder months. Accessories cover caps, hats and bags. The range is mainly menswear, with a few unisex accessories. The brand began in golf, and that sporty-smart feel still runs through the polos and knitwear.
