About the brand
Fyfe makes headcovers and golf accessories in a workshop in Fife, from Scottish cloth: Harris Tweed woven in the Outer Hebrides, waxed canvas from Halley Stevensons in Dundee, and tartan. Every piece is cut, stitched and finished by hand. The brand launched in November 2021.
Co-founder Neil Rennie came to it from fashion, and the textile thread in his family runs further back. His grandparents worked at Grandholm Mill in Aberdeen, making Crombie coat cloth, and another grandfather was a blacksmith in the Aberdeen shipyards.
The idea for Fyfe was a culmination of a passion for golf, Scottish manufacturing and the concern around climate change.Neil Rennie, to The Wandering Golfers
The making stays in Scotland beyond the workshop too: hats in Ayrshire, socks in Hawick, knitwear yarn from a mill at Loch Leven. They make to demand rather than over-producing, they're members of 1% for the Planet, and their golf bags are a collaboration with MacKenzie.
