C. P. Company is a European menswear brand. The iconic model of the brand is a jacket with goggles on the hood. Items with elements of military and work uniforms brought CP Company worldwide success and reflected the innovative approach of Italians to design clothes for real men.
Brand History
The Italian brand was founded in 1974. At the time of its creation, it bore the name of the cartoon character - Chester Perry.
The company offered practical men's clothing that stood the test of hard work and adverse weather conditions. Chester Perry was not interested in seasonal trends and stood aloof from the luxury industry.
Designer Massimo Osti has taken the brand to the next level. He was impressed by the corporate philosophy of functional clothing for strong men. When developing models, Osti was inspired by studying the life of army pilots, fishermen, and travelers. The master turned elements of military and work uniforms into actual design details. Thanks to Massimo, Chester Perry has achieved the status of a premium clothing manufacturer.
In 1979, the brand name changed. Chester Perry has abbreviated to its current name, C. P. Company.
Later the brand became part of a group of companies producing goods for an active lifestyle, but the collections are still produced under the original name.
Along with the release of functional clothing, the brand is experimenting with the production of innovative fabrics. Technological materials have increased resistance to extreme temperatures and pollution.
Mille Miglia: the iconic lens model
In the 1980s, the Stone Island collection appeared in the range of the brand. The line's outerwear has become a cult favorite for football fans.
The collection's bestseller is the Mille Miglia jacket, named after the Italian rally in the early 20th century.
In the design of the item, elements of a racing sports uniform were used - goggles on the hood and a lens window for watches on the sleeve. Initially, they were intended to protect the eyes and dial from dirt. The CP Company made lenses an iconic design element that is now replicated on trousers, hats and sweatshirts.
Things with a recognizable detail have become a sign of a status wardrobe and are especially loved by rap artists.
Modern assortment
Today, CP Company produces all the elements of a basic men's wardrobe. The range of clothes includes models in a relaxed casual style:
- Outerwear - bomber jackets and canonical jackets withlenses.

Clothes of "CP Company" are maximally functional. The pockets of jackets and trousers hold everything the traveler needs and keep their hands free. Hoods and high collars keep out the wind. Technical fabrics with soft backs resist the weather and keep you warm and comfortable.
C. P. Company has been using the unique Garment Dying technology since the 1980s: each item is finished-dyed. Thus, the craftsmen achieve an aged effect of clothing that has passed through fire and water without loss of quality.
How to tell the real from the fake
C&P Company items are a popular object of replication. Canonical models with lenses are especially popular with scammers. There are several subtleties that allow you to establish the fact of the authenticity of clothes:
- Lens. In the original items, the hole for the insert is finished with a neat seam and equipped with an elastic band.
- Lightning. The brand uses Japanese movements with YKK markings on the lock. The iron tongue is equipped with a woven ribbon with the name of the manufacturer's brand. The zipper itself works silently and smoothly.
- The brand name patch on the wrong side is fastened withusing a zigzag stitch instead of a straight stitch.
- The shade of the size tag is close to the main color of the product. This detail confirms the proprietary dyeing technology in finished form. A white tag on a thing in a saturated color gives a fake in the product.
- QR code. The presence of an icon for reading by a gadget is obligatory for new models of CP Company. The code takes you to the official website of the brand and proves the authenticity of the product.
- Article. It is indicated on the internal product label and must match the name of the same model on the manufacturer's website.
