From the noise of the city to the wilderness of the Great Outdoors,
Penfield clothing and accessories have always been built for life in the
open. Penfield was founded in 1975 in Hudson, Massachusetts by
Harvey Gross, a pioneering figure in the American outerwear industry who
had championed the strength of down insulated outerwear for decades.
Seeing the potential of the warm and protective garment technology,
Gross acquired an old textile mill in Hudson and turned it into one of
the few factories in the world adept at the special manufacturing
processes required to produce down insulated apparel. From the very first collection (four key outerwear styles, all made
from innovative rip-stop Nylon fabric and insulated with down), Penfield
was at the forefront of the New England aesthetic: an authentic blend
of technical fabrics and Ivy League menswear staples. It was this style
that helped to introduce the American outerwear look to an international
market and in 1979 Penfield began exporting worldwide. Since
then, high-profile collaborations, innovative fabric developments and a
dedication to quality, practicality, durability, function and style have
all caught the attention of wandering spirits across the globe. From the street to the trail, wherever wind blows and rain falls, Penfield is an icon of life in the open.
