MIAMI, Florida— Original Penguin by Munsingwear, a division of Perry Ellis International, proudly unveils its Spring 2025 Golf Collection, celebrating the brand’s storied legacy that began in 1955 when Munsingwear introduced America to its first iconic golf shirt.
For over 60 years, the Original Penguin icon has adorned legends of leisure and sport, establishing itself as an American classic that continues to influence the fairways today.
Born on the links and perfected through decades of innovation, Original Penguin’s golf heritage runs deep. The brand that once outfitted golf’s greatest players now continues this tradition with PGA TOUR winners Jake Knapp, Nico Echavarria, and Brian Campbell, alongside PGA TOUR players Max McGreevy and Mason Andersen, and Korn Ferry Tour member Johnny Keefer—all showcasing Original Penguin’s timeless style at golf’s highest levels.
“Original Penguin has always stood at the intersection of sport and style,” said Oscar Feldenkreis, CEO of Perry Ellis International. “With this collection, we’re honoring our golf heritage while delivering pieces that speak to today’s golfer—someone who values both performance and personality.”
The Spring 2025 collection draws inspiration from the brand’s mid-century roots when golf and sophisticated leisure were synonymous. Channeling the elegance of 1960s and 70s luxury travel—an era when golf fashion set the standard for refined sportswear—Original Penguin brings this aesthetic forward with performance fabrics and modern tailoring.
The men’s line pays homage to classic style with archival-inspired prints and modern interpretations of the iconic Pete the Penguin logo across performance-ready pieces. Meanwhile, the women’s collection features fresh takes on classic silhouettes with rich textures and fluid shapes that honor the brand’s heritage while embracing contemporary needs.
“Original Penguin has always stood for confident style with a sense of humor, and this collection is no exception,” added Feldenkreis. “We’ve taken inspiration from our archives and updated them with the comfort and functionality today’s golfers expect—on the course or at the club.”
From its humble beginnings as an underwear and military supply company, Munsingwear ironically became the touchstone of suburban sport with the introduction of the first iconic golf shirt to America. Today, Original Penguin’s presence spans the globe with over 1,250 points of sale and more than 99 Original Penguin stores worldwide.
The Spring 2025 Golf Collection continues this legacy of distinction, offering golfers the perfect blend of heritage-inspired design and modern performance. Each piece carries with it the spirit of those who defined the game’s golden era while meeting the demands of today’s players who recognize that true style is timeless.
The Original Penguin Spring 2025 Golf Collection is available at select retailers, OriginalPenguin.com, and pro shops nationwide.
