Lyle & Scott Clothing
Lyle & Scott was founded in 1874 and since has grown to become one of Europe's biggest fashion labels. They offer on-trend, quality clothing at brilliantly affordable prices. William Lyle and Walter Scott saw a demand for high quality knitted underwear in Victorian Britain and decided to do something about it. The company was formed in a small factory in Hawick, a town nestled in the Scottish Borders that remains Lyle & Scott’s home to this day. Making it one of Europe’s most recognisable heritage brands.
The brand of choice for the fashion-conscious youth of today with an eye for style, Lyle & Scott live and breathe the current fashion trends and offer the complete collection of quality trainers, jackets, shirts, tops and knitwear; the perfect mix of statement must-have pieces and basic wardrobe essentials. They have even collaborated with world famous high-end fashion houses on luxury womenswear collections. The most popular being in 1954 a cashmere collection was created with Christian Dior.
Lyle & Scott launched its first range of golf wear in the 1960s and soon became known as ‘The Original Golf Brand’. This launch inspired the creation of the iconic ‘Golden Eagle’ logo, as it was based on the eagle of Gleneagles’ world famous golf courses.
Since its inception several celebrities have proudly sported the brand including; actors Emma Watson, Idris Elba and Tom Hardy, musicians such and Harry Styles and Liam Payne, and television presenter Holly Willoughby. Their involvement has been key in building the profile of the fashion brand.
One of the main clothing categories in which Lyle & Scott excel is in the area of coats and jackets. UKK stock a wide range of Jackets in a variety of colours and cuts. Styles of note include the Technical Parka Jacket, the Overhead Anorak Jacket and the classic Wadded Hooded Bomber Jacket with faux fur collar for added warmth.

The Eagle bucket hats and baseball caps, as well as the Thompson pool sliders are must-haves to add to your collection. They come in a wide range of colours from pastels to classic colours ensuring there’s something in the collection for everyone.
One of the other standout categories from Lyle & Scott clothing is their knitwear. In 1975 they received the Royal Warrant by appointment to HRH Duke of Edinburgh as ‘Supplier of Knitwear’. Quite simply, in terms of quality, fit and price Lyle & Scott just cannot be beaten when it comes to jumpers, sweaters, knits and cardigans. Covering all bases from varying weights of knit, from plain to patterned and in varying colours and styles. A perfect example is the Merino Jumper as it comes in a wide variety of colours.
