The Original Penguin clothing brand is the epitome of all American classic style; with its origins dating back to the mid 20th century and its somewhat modest beginnings in Minnesota in a factory that produced underwear. This may seem like an unusual founding for what has now become a hugely significant fashion brand; since its establishment in the year 1955 it has gone on in leaps and bounds.

Today Original Penguin clothing has been and still is, worn by some of the most stylish and famous people in the world. Celebrities such as Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra and even Clint Eastwood have draped themselves in this brand's garments. The brand's funny logo of Pete the Penguin is now known all across the globe as a symbol of a classic, timeless leisure wear label.

This timeless appeal of the clothing brand's garments became evident when the brand's original classic shirt designs became wildly popular yet again in the year 2000. Anyone and everyone in the fashion industry wanted a classic vintage shirt by this label. This renewed popularity continued until in 2003 due to such a huge demand, one of the original shirts made by Munsingwear was reborn and an affiliation with a major fashion house was formed. The original classic pieces which were loved in the 1950's and 1960's were reworked to mirror the modern lifestyle of today's trendsetters; this was done brilliantly, without any compromise in terms of the brand's philosophy and high quality creations. Today the brand can be found all across the globe.
