The History of 'The Green Jacket'
As the Ryder Cup draws nearer Perry Club take a look at the traditions of the 'Green Jacket'.
Each year, the winner of The Masters is presented with the famous 'Green Jacket' and slipping on the jacket is a golden moment for many winners of the tournament.
So what is the history behind this beautiful and momentous piece of outerwear?
The tradition of the Green Jacket dates back to 1937 at Augusta National Golf Club where members of the club wore the jackets during the tournament so that fans in attendance could easily recognize them if they needed to ask questions.
According to the tournament's official website,
Tiger Woods has won 4 masters championships. A golfer who wins the event multiple times uses the same green jacket awarded upon his initial win (unless he needs to be re-fitted with a new green jacket).

The tradition of the Green Jacket dates back to 1937 at Augusta National Golf Club where members of the club wore the jackets during the tournament so that fans in attendance could easily recognize them if they needed to ask questions.
According to the tournament's official website,
"Jackets were purchased from the Brooks Uniform Company, New York City ... Members were not initially enthusiastic about wearing the warm, green coat. Within several years, a lightweight, made-to-order Jacket was available from the Club's Golf Shop. ... The single breasted, single vent Jacket's color is 'Masters Green' and is adorned with an Augusta National Golf Club logo on the left chest pocket. The logo also appears on the brass buttons."Soon, the Green Jacket became the symbol of membership in the ultra-exclusive Augusta National Golf Club. Slipping a jacket onto the winner of The Masters was a tradition that began in 1949 symbolizing that golfer's entry into the exclusive club of the Masters Champions.
Tiger Woods has won 4 masters championships. A golfer who wins the event multiple times uses the same green jacket awarded upon his initial win (unless he needs to be re-fitted with a new green jacket).

Sunshine, Strawberrys and Club Blazers
Welcome to the best of the British spectator sports - Wimbledon 2014
The All England Club is well known for the traditions it upholds such as the all white dress code for players, and the knowledge the crowd will drink Pimms and eat strawberries and cream in copious amounts whatever the weather throws at them.
The dress code the spectators choose to follow if off duty but classy, often a tailored look, chinos, linen suits and polo's or buttoned down oxford shirts. This is typical preppy fashion in all its glory, reminiscent of the Ivy League look, a favorite of Perry Club.The official supplier of clothing to umpires, ground staff and ball boys and girls is Ralph Lauren, the braided blazers remaining a visual symbol of the tournament.
Perry Club look forward to donning a club blazer, some chinos, maybe a Pimms or two, and hope to see you court side to revel in the great British spectator sport that is Wimbledon.

Ralph Lauren opens its doors to Rowing blazers
Rowing Blazers are a hit at Ralph Lauren launch
Rowing Blazers received a warm welcome at Ralph Lauren as
Jack Carlson launches his ‘Rowing Blazers’ coffee table book featuring Perry
Club. Ralph Lauren hosted a private party at No.1 New Bond Street last Thursday
evening for the launch of the book which is an insightful look at how blazers
are worn by oarsmen and women from across the globe.
ROWING BLAZERS by Jack Carlson looks
at the authentic striped, piped, trimmed, and badged blazers that are worn around the world today. Each university, school,
college, and club featured in the book are represented by a blazer-clad
rower or group of rowers including world champions, record holders, and
Olympians such as Sir Steve Redgrave.
The stunning original
photographs, many by “prep” guru F.E. Castleberry, are taken on location at
the historic boathouses, campuses, and team rooms of clubs in the United
States, Great Britain, the Netherlands, South Africa, New Zealand,
Australia, and beyond.
These portraits are accompanied by
thrilling action shots from Henley Royal Regatta, Head of the
Charles, the Olympic Games, and The Boat Race.
Perry Club highly recommend purchasing a copy, you can order online at www.rowingblazers.com.
