| General info : | | Arrow is a brandname of shirts initially used by Cluett, Peabody & Company, Inc., and most recently by Phillips-Van Heusen Corp. (now PVH Corp.).
Once headquartered in Troy, New York, it was a longtime manufacturer of shirts, detachable shirt cuffs and collars, and related apparel best known for its Arrow brand collars and shirts and the related Arrow Collar Man advertisements (1907–1931).
It dates, with a different name, from the mid-19th century and was absorbed by Westpoint Pepperell in the 1980s.
The Arrow name is still licensed to brand men's shirts and ties.
The company manufactured shirts and collars in a historic building at 123 First Street in Leominster, Massachusetts. The building was constructed in 1902 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.
Cluett, Peabody & Co. was acquired by WestPoint Pepperell, Inc in 1985. Bidermann Industries purchased Cluett, Peabody & Co. from WestPoint Pepperell in 1990. Cluett American Group (Vestar Capital Partners) bought the company in 1998.
In 2004, Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation (parent company of longtime archrival Van Heusen) acquired the Arrow brand and the related licensing business from Cluett American Group for approximately $70 million.
In June 2021, it was announced that Authentic Brands Group LLC would acquire the Arrow brand from Authentic Brands Group LLC.
Today, the Arrow trademark is owned by Authentic Brands Group LLC and is manufactured and marketed alongside Van Heusen by United Legwear & Apparel Company under a long-term licensing agreement. Currently in the United States, the primary retailer for the brand is online retailer Amazon.com. | |
