Lyle & Scott at Rackhams

With 150 years of British design and heritage, Lyle & Scott began modestly in 1874, when William Lyle and Walter Scott founded the company in Hawick, Scotland, specializing in finely crafted knitted underwear. Their guiding principle was simple: ‘Good work brings more work.’ By delivering quality, they earned customers’ trust and loyalty. This approach paved the way for the brand’s growth, leading to the production of premium men’s and women’s knitwear in the 1920s, and later, collaborations with renowned names like Michael Kors, Yves Saint Laurent, and Christian Dior.

Today’s Lyle & Scott seamlessly combines its rich heritage with a forward-looking passion for innovation. At its core, the brand remains committed to quality, craftsmanship, and creativity, drawing inspiration from the timeless elements of tailoring, military style, and sportswear—the cornerstones of great British design.
