Paying homage to its 1950s-inspired sportswear, the Vintage Gym London Editorial follows four amateur athletes into their domain, whether on the court, in the park or in the studio, capturing them as they train.

Shot by acclaimed photographer Jonathan Daniel Price, the images deliver a slice of the determination, perseverance and skill that epitomise its four young models as they work out sporting a range of Penguin’s classic bombers, varsity knitwear and casual cotton sweatshirts.
