Fred Perry is a British brand that produces sportswear, shoes and bags. The company was founded in 1952 by tennis player Fred Perry and named after him. Currently, there are dozens of official stores around the world, including 2 Fred Perry stores in Moscow.
History
Fred Perry's history began when an Austrian footballer named Tibby Wegner pitched his idea to Fred Perry to create a sweat-proof and injury-preventing wrist band bearing the tennis player's name. Soon after the development and release of the Fred Perry armband, famous athletes began to wear it, which provided good publicity for the new brand. The brand was named Fred Perry Sportswear.
The next development was sports shirts, after which the brand logo - a laurel wreath, became recognizable not only among athletes. Then the company also began to produce table tennis shoes, motorcycle jackets, and various polo models. Since 2000, the company has been cooperating with leading designers and fashion designers. The brand frequently collaborates with musicians such as Paul Weller, Terry Hall and No Doubt.
The first Fred Perry store in Moscow was opened on November 6, 2008. As with any new branch, this store has been custom designed. As a result, the room consists of contrasts: the main hall, where the red carpet lies, and a small salon, decorated in vintage style.
