Green Lamb
Green Lamb, one of Europe’s top golfing brands for women, has turned its ever fashion conscious eye towards bringing a bit of sporting glamour off the ski slopes and on to the fairway. Featuring classic golf designs, such as argyle, cable, intarsia and baby cabling knit, and woven with deluxe yarns – including soft touch cashmere and finest grade Peruvian cotton – their Autumn and Winter Collection not only looks good, but feels great.
Inspired by alpine fashion, Green Lamb has created an athletic, contemporary image for active golfers with clean sporty lines and feminine contours. Highlights of the collection include the Stretch Panelled Gilet and Thermo Trousers, which epitomise Green Lamb’s blend of performance and elegance. The mesh lined gilet features stretchable fabrics set against strong colour blocking with a highly visible contrast zip. The thermo trousers are water resistant and lightly padded, with a colour side piping detail, ideal for staying warm, dry and moving freely in winter conditions.
