Each piece of Lyle & Scott’s line features the brand’s iconic Golden Eagle, which was launched alongside the company’s first-ever collection of golfwear in the 1960s. The emblem was inspired by the eagles that inhabit Gleneagles golf course near St Andrews.
“I know all about the iconic Lyle and Scott brand from my time growing up in England,” said Tilley. “It represents the culture of golf in England and worldwide and I’m extremely proud to be an ambassador for this fantastic brand.”
