Henri Lloyd was founded in 1963 by Henri Strzelecki. A keen sailor since childhood, he was quick to spot a gap in the sailing clothing market and how the new fabric Bri-nylon could fill that gap. His initial work pioneered over 30 years of sporting firsts and technical innovations using completely new materials in the most unexpected ways.
Today, Henri Lloyd presents collections that span across the boundary of sportswear and into smart casual menswear suitable for any environment. Equally at home both on board a yacht or in the club bar, Henri Lloyd is one of those rare labels to make a successful crossover into the mainstream. Durable, rugged and hard wearing, Henri Lloyd menswear never looses sight of the fact that clothes have to work for a living, so making sure there’s no compromise on the quality or the wearability of each and every garment is an overriding principle.
Henri Lloyd produces clothes that are easy to wear on a daily basis and don’t have to be ‘saved for a special occasion’. Smart, simple elegance combines with the very latest in production technology to give the discerning buyer a garment that will hold its own in the real world. Henri Lloyd prefers to go for classic styling rather than brash, edgy design, and it’s this simple, understated elegance that the company knows will be forever appreciated by its clientele. After 45 years, Henri Lloyd is still drawing in new fans and has a strong presence in the fashion industry as a market leader.
