Golfino

Golfino, a renowned golf fashion brand, traces its roots back to 1986 when it was founded by Christel and Bernd Kirsten. The spark for the brand was ignited by Bernhard Langer’s victory at the Masters in 1985, inspiring the Kirstens to establish their own golf wear brand in Hamburg​​.

From its humble beginnings as a knitwear specialist, Golfino has evolved over more than three decades into a major player in golf attire. Today, the company boasts a portfolio of high-quality coordinated outfits for sports and leisure wear. The Kirsten family has ensured that the brand's collection has grown impressively, marking Golfino's journey from a small family business to a global brand with over 40 standalone shops and 900 retail partners around the world​​.

Golfino takes pride in the quality of its products. The company manufactures a variety of sports apparel, including knitwear, waistcoats, skirts, socks, jackets, golf gloves, and T-shirts. Over 70% of its fashion items are designed and produced in Europe, demonstrating Golfino's commitment to maintaining high-quality standards​​.

As a testament to its continuous innovation, Golfino introduced new arrivals for the 2019 golf season that featured impressive retro designs and functional materials. The company leveraged textile technologies like Silverplus, Kafetex, and Sofiguard to enhance the performance and comfort of its clothing. These technologies provide benefits such as odor-neutralization, anti-static effects, and protection against water exposure, reflecting Golfino's dedication to integrating fashion with functionality​​.

In the present day, Golfino is an acquired/merged entity with a workforce of 250 employees. Even though it has experienced significant changes in its corporate structure, the company remains firmly rooted in its original mission: to produce top-quality, golf-related fashion and merchandise in Germany and serve customers across the globe​.
