William Lockie Scottish Men's Sweaters
On the banks of the River Teviot in Hawick, in the heart of the Scottish textile industry, sweaters that stand up to any comparison have been crafted since 1874. William Lockie —affectionately known as “Lockies”—is world-famous for one thing: the softest, finest, and most durable knitwear in the world. The wool is knitted on special machines with high yarn tension, featuring fully shaped saddle shoulders and precisely crafted cuffs—the result of more than 150 years of perfection.
The centerpiece of the men’s collection is the “ Leven ” sweater: a 2-ply knit crew neck made from the finest “ Geelong ” lambswool—the type of wool that comes from the very first shearing of specially bred Australian lambs. Lightweight, soft, and warm, it exudes a timeless elegance that’s perfect for any occasion. The collection is rounded out by a turtleneck sweater with a quarter-length zipper in anthracite, a classic V-neck slipover, and two exclusive Fair Isle sweaters—in beige and Driftwood brown—which are available worldwide exclusively at The Scottish Shop .
The Scottish Shop is your leading William Lockie retailer in Germany—with the largest selection of men's styles and exclusive models, shipped directly from Scotland.
