The Fred Perry M12 Twin Tipped Polo Shirt is more than just a polo; it’s one of the defining garments of British subcultural style. First introduced in the 1950s, the M12 was the original Fred Perry shirt to feature the now-iconic twin tipping in the signature 5-4-4 ratio, becoming a staple of Mod, skinhead and alternative fashion movements for generations. Still proudly made in Leicester, England, the M12 remains true to Fred Perry’s original design philosophy, combining sharp styling, premium craftsmanship and authentic sporting heritage.
This Tartan Green edition delivers a rich dark pine green base, elevated by Ice and Red twin tipping at the collar and cuffs alongside a striking red Laurel Wreath embroidery at the chest. Constructed from premium cotton piqué and cut in the original slightly boxier M12 silhouette, it retains the clean, streamlined profile that made the style famous both on and off the tennis court. Finished with responsible design updates including recycled threads and recycled buttons, this timeless Made in England classic continues to evolve while staying unmistakably Fred Perry.
