Franklin & Marshall Apparel Line

Have you spotted a Franklin and Marshall sweatshirt in London lately?  Chances are it belongs to the clothing company, Franklin & Marshall.  The company licenses the name from the Pennsylvania liberal arts college.

MSNBC -"While on a trip to London in 2000, Giuseppe Albarelli and Andrea Pensiero found a sweatshirt with the Franklin & Marshall logo while rifling through vintage goodies at a local market. Pensiero, a designer, was already the owner of several shops in Italy, and Albarelli was selling bags made out of ship sails. Together, they decided to found a brand of clothing based on that one sweatshirt they came across in London."
