Pringle of Scotland is one of the world’s oldest continually operating fashion companies, founded in 1815 by Robert Pringle in Hawick Scotland and one of the first manufacturers to produce cashmere knitwear since 1870. Famous for the iconic argyle pattern developed in the 1920s and worn by the Duke of Windsor, Pringle offers cashmere merino and lambswool jumpers cardigans accessories and golf edit collections. Previously held the Royal Warrant as manufacturers of knitted garments, Pringle products are consistent eBay UK and Amazon UK sellers with strong demand from luxury knitwear buyers seeking genuine Scottish heritage craftsmanship.
