150 Years of Heritage, Innovation, and Iconic Style

LYLE & SCOTT: 150 YEARS OF HERITAGE, INNOVATION, AND ICONIC STYLE

Scottish Borders, 2024 — Celebrating a remarkable journey spanning over a century and a half, Lyle & Scott stands tall as a symbol of British fashion heritage and timeless style. From its modest origins in the Scottish Borders to its status as a global lifestyle brand, Lyle & Scott has consistently blended tradition with improvement, building on the slogan painted on the factory wall: ‘Good Work Means More Work’.

Established in 1874, it has a legacy of evolution and influence. From being at the forefront of high fashion in the 1950s to revolutionising the aesthetics of golf and football in the 1970s and 80s, the brand has continuously redefined contemporary style. Notably, its impact on the music scene of the early 2000s cemented its status as a cultural icon.

At such a landmark moment in time, the brand began the celebrations by revisiting and re-interpreting the best of its archive with London creative team (and leading cultural storytellers) Wavey Garms, who shined a light on the greatest moments of Lyle & Scott.

Additionally, through providing free football kits to teams all over the world (through its Kits for Clubs program), Lyle & Scott commits and invests in the future of local communities, supporting grassroots sports, and developing a global culture of teamwork and excellence.

Before the end of the year, Lyle & Scott will introduce an anniversary knitwear collection, a tribute to its legacy of craftsmanship and innovation. Exclusive collaborations will come in the months that follow as the brand maintains its position as a beacon of quality and sophistication, with a renewed commitment to premium materials and meticulous craftsmanship.

"While we look to the future with fresh eyes and new ideas, our rich history remains our greatest inspiration. Lyle & Scott is more than a brand; it is a symbol of enduring British craftsmanship and style."

With a global presence and a dedicated following across generations, Lyle & Scott continues to inspire and innovate, setting standards for contemporary fashion while honouring its deep-rooted heritage.
