FIELD DAY HAS ARRIVED

A new kind of golf brand, built for purists. Now on TRENDYGOLF.

Rooted in heritage, designed with intention, and made for the modern gentleman golfer, Field Day Sporting Co. is the latest brand to join TRENDYGOLF’s curated lineup.

Founded by Patrick Keegan, Field Day is more than a brand, it’s a philosophy. Inspired by a bygone era of simplicity, elegance, and analog charm, Field Day reimagines classic menswear silhouettes with modern fabrications and refined functionality. Their ethos is simple: bring timeless style back to the course without compromising comfort, construction, or character.

What began as a general store in Keegan’s hometown of Morris, Illinois - complete with a bar, barbershop, and curated menswear -has evolved into a golf brand that taps into the feeling of simpler times. Think Blackwatch plaid, herringbone textures, and garments your grandfather would have proudly worn, updated with performance fabrics and a tailored edge. As Keegan puts it, “We don’t want you to look as comfortable as you actually are.”

Field Day’s Spring 2025 collection offers a sharp, era-less sensibility grounded in heritage patterns and softened by spring tones - pale yellow, blush pink, and sky blue - that nod subtly to the season’s most iconic tournament in Georgia. The brand's craftsmanship is backed by ethical production in certified B-Corp factories, and its story is powered by passion, independence, and an unwavering belief in slow, meaningful growth.

For those who still believe in looking sharp on and off the course, and want to feel something while they do it.

Field Day Sporting Co. is a return to form.

Q+A WITH FOUNDER Patrick Keegan

What inspired the creation of Field Day Sporting Co.?

PK: Field Day in the dictionary would read, “a day devoted”, or “a day at play”—we’re tapping into this era of simpler times. The tech-free days when menswear was more prevalent in our game. When you didn’t wear specific gear for the activity, but you still looked sharp doing it.

Could you share the story behind the brand's beginnings?

PK: Field Day was launched in November 2021 as a men’s general store in my hometown of Morris, Illinois. We curated lifestyle goods, elevated accessories, grills, e-bikes—you name it. It’s also a gathering space with a bar and barbershop. My mom calls it my Christmas list in every size.

My dad was a PGA pro in this little town for 30 years, and my mom a kindergarten teacher. Kristen and I launched the Field Day brand in 2024 because something was missing. The golf market had leaned too far into prints and polyester. I wanted tailored menswear with performance—something I could wear on course and off.

Who is Field Day for?

PK: Guys of all ages. It’s not too fast for my dad and grandpa, but has just enough edge for a 32-year-old fashion designer to get a fit off.

What sets Field Day apart in the golf apparel space?

PK: Heritage menswear patterns, structure, and sophistication. Spring 2025 is built around Blackwatch plaid, herringbone, and houndstooth. Menswear patterns are undefeated.

What’s the core design philosophy?

PK: We’re creating “provisions for purists.” It’s about honoring tradition while tapping into modern tech. A lot of golf shops carry a sea of sameness—Field Day cuts through that.

What’s the creative process like behind a collection?

PK: It’s chaotic but fulfilling. We’re a team of 5. I’m pouring drinks at our in-store bar, measuring tuxedos during wedding season, and building the brand behind the scenes. It’s a lifelong dream—so I’ve got a decade of ideas chambered.

How do you stay innovative while still rooted in tradition?

PK: We’re reinterpreting the greatest hits. You might not look like you’re wearing performance gear, but you’ll feel it. That’s the surprise.

What values drive the brand?

PK: We have no investors, no shareholders—just controlled growth and people we love. My sister recently joined as Director of Sales. This is personal.

Tell us about your materials and production.

PK: We work with certified B Corp factories with ethical, sustainable practices. Our factory in Peru runs on solar, recycles water, and even offers yoga to workers. That matters.

What experience do you want people to have with Field Day?

PK: It’s a feeling—like the golden age, the wonder years. My old boss John Ashworth used to say he sold a philosophy, not a product. I want to do the same.

What’s next?

PK: We’re proud of our partnership with the Western Golf Association and the Evans Scholars Foundation. Our next initiative launches in July, and it’s close to the heart. We believe in doing good where we can actually see it make a difference.

Cashmere. Argyle. The Twinset. Cardigans for British (and Hollywood) royalty. All made famous, made relevant and in some instances made for the first time, by this knitwear company, whose origins lie in the unassuming town of Hawick, Scotland, United Kingdom.

It may have over a 200-year history, indeed it can be considered one of the oldest luxury fashion brands in the world, but Pringle of Scotland has always been a thoroughly modern, pioneering company. Founded in 1815 by Robert Pringle as manufacturers of knitted hosiery, it was Pringle, decades after its inception, that embraced and encouraged the technical innovations that led to the creation of knitted outerwear, and indeed coined the term ‘knitwear’ to describe its ever-growing collections.
Known and loved around the world for the use of cashmere, Pringle also introduced the intarsia design that soon became a signature argyle pattern. Adopted by the Duke of Windsor in the 1920s, argyle became instantly popular with the fashionable set of the time, and is still an often-referenced and globally recognized icon today.
The Pringle twinset, another brand invention inspired by the sporty knitwear pairings on the golf course, was taken up by many famous faces of the 1930s and 1940s. From the House of Windsor to the West Coast of America, Pringle cashmere was a must-have, and a twinset graced the shoulders of Jean Crawford, Margot Fonteyn, Grace Kelly, Margaret Lockwood, Moirer Shearer and Jean Simmons among a host of others. A Pringle cashmere twinset made the cover of Vogue in 1955.


“It was Pringle who introduced Sweaters that were the softest, supplest, finest things that could be made from cashmere. It was Pringle who brought to Sweaters these rare and beautiful colorings.”
– Edith Wharton.
Pringle received its Royal Warrant in 1956 awarded by Her Majesty the Queen. One of the most treasured notes in the brand archives is a note from Clarence House from the Dresser to Her Majesty the Queen Mother simply requesting ‘New Cardigan Please.’

Today, Pringle continues to be a pioneer of British knitwear and a champion of British heritage. In 2015, for its 200th anniversary, Pringle worked with National Museums Scotland to curate an exhibition charting Pringle’s long history within the Scottish knitwear industry and celebrating the relevance of knitwear in contemporary fashion. It is thanks to Robert Pringle and his humble hosiery manufacturers that knitwear has such a prominent place in the lives and wardrobes of men and women around the world.

Autumn/Winter 2022

From the Archive – Pringle Golf

This season Pringle, long synonymous with sportswear and the original home of argyle, has re-imagined some of its most famous and beloved 1980s golfing styles in a modern unisex capsule.

The celebrated intarsia features a bold all-over pattern on a round neck and sweater vest with a dash of 80s colors for impact. Field Green, Heather Pink, Purple Moon, Lagoon, and Mustard are all represented. All are modern versions of nostalgic favorites, recalling moments such as a windswept Nick Faldo raising a champagne-splashed trophy; football casuals on a Saturday afternoon; and proudly-matching groups of friends of the era.

A range of retro-colored classics underpin the capsule. Long-term Pringle fans will recognize the “Golfing Lion” motif returning for this capsule: featuring the brand’s heritage Lion Rampant emblem holding a club while the sporting vintage Pringle logo is featured on sleeves.
