Pringle of Scotland (more generally known simply as Pringle) is an internationally known manufacturer and importer of premium knitwear and related clothing.
A generally upmarket brand with a boutique aesthetic, Pringle has a reputation for the quality of its products as well as the material from which they are made.
Pringle is also one of the world’s oldest clothing brands still in operation, with 190 years of experience in the fashion market. It is this long and proud history that sets Pringle apart from many of its competitors. Pringle of Scotland has been an iconic figure in the clothing industry since 1815, when it was founded by Robert Pringle in the Scottish Borders. At the time, the region was at the center of the flourishing Scottish knitting industry.
The company was a leader in the innovations of the time that led to knitwear becoming popular as an outer garment, and quickly rose to prominence as one of the leading manufacturers of luxury knitwear worldwide as a result of its expansion throughout Europe, Asia, and the USA.
