The brand's logo is a laurel wreath, which usually appears on the left breast of Fred Perry garments, stitched into the fabric. Fred Perry products are sold, and worn, around the world. The Fred Perry brand is still iconic, and remains popular, and fashionable. The brand has become a global symbol of alternative culture.
