It's a rather high-end Italian sportswear company with an emphasis on yachting type clothing.

Oddly, it has a large presence in China.

Paul&Shark is one of my favourite casual clothing companies. It is expensive, but at least the quality is good, so you're not paying for the label. Or only for the label.

I own some Paul&Shark sweaters, and some of them are 20 years old. Their quality is incridible. Try never to purchase them on e-bay (99% fake).
I bought a few trousers on this SF (Edmorel and Chorse 123) made by Incotex for Paul&Shark. Authentic and VERY reasonable prices. a must in any men's closet ...

I have a twenty years old henley-type sweater in thin off-white merino-wool. It's still got the original shape, and is only now getting noticeably worn. I took the labels off straight away when I bought it, and I've worn it extensively. I'm impressed with it.

Its great stuff but i pricey. They make for the Italian Navy and have a good focus on technical yachting gear.

The brand also has a Paul & Shark Club, where you receive a club card you swipe whenever making a purchase at their stores.

Some of my favorite things; shirts, sweater, sailing/wet weather coats, shorts, tennis shoes etc. They have impeccable style and finish; the details are superb.

It is better to look good than to sail good.

I just noticed Paul&Shark had some suits in their spring/summer 2006 catalog. My guess would be "decent but way overpriced", does anyone have any real knowledge?

Do you know if what they sell in China is the same as their European/American productions?
