Glenmuir has been making golf knitwear in Lanark, Scotland since 1891, and the European Ryder Cup Team have worn it since 1987. The brand started out producing hosiery on a single knitting frame and grew into one of golf's most recognised names, still made from lambswool and merino sourced in Scotland and Italy. At Baks Menswear in Bournemouth, we stock Glenmuir's polo shirts and jumpers for on the course or off it.
We stock Glenmuir because it's the real thing rather than a golf-branded add-on. A hundred and thirty years of knitwear experience sits behind every jumper, and it shows in the finish.
The range covers polo shirts in the brand's signature colourways alongside lambswool and merino jumpers, cut for layering over a shirt or wearing on their own. Recycled performance fabrics and PFC-free water repellency run through the newer pieces without the fit or feel changing.
Andrew MacDougall founded the company in 1891 in Kirkfieldbank, near Lanark, and the factory moved to its current home on Delves Road before the turn of the century. Glenmuir has supplied the European Ryder Cup Team since their first win on American soil in 1987, and still does.
For a jumper that's built for a Scottish course in October, this is where to start.
