Jacobs & Turner LTD, trading as Trespass, is a privately owned sportswear brand with headquarters located in Glasgow, Scotland. Read on to find out more about our history.
Our company was first established in 1938 in Glasgow, Scotland. At the time, we had just 12 machinists, a 1200 sqft warehouse, and we provided uniforms and other items of clothing to large organisations, including the local police. As our success grew, we started to manufacture a new product that would come to shape our business for the next 70 years. That product, was anoraks and other waterproof jackets.
As our business grew, so did our surroundings. We moved from our small warehouse to a new location on Glasgow’s Argyll Street, in 1977. We had more than 10,000 sqft of office and warehouse space, from which we continued to design and manufacture outdoor clothing.
During the 1980s, our business rapidly expanded. We started an import and export branch of the company, which sold our specialist outdoor clothing to countries around the world. This was an exciting time for us, and we saw our production rates increase and our staff levels grow.
In 1984, as our client list expanded, we decided to create a dedicated brand that would provide only the finest, high performance, quality outdoor clothing; Trespass was born. We started to focus on affordable skiwear and other specialist outdoor clothing and equipment, such as waterproof jackets and walking boots. We have a huge passion for the outdoors and we wanted to show that through our product line.
During the 1990s, we decided to open retail stores, which would sell our Trespass branded clothing and accessories. While we started with just a few select stores, we now have more than 170 stores across the UK. In addition to this, we are in the process of opening stores in mainland Europe and even further afield in the likes of America and Asia.
Today we are one of the UK's most successful outdoor clothing retailers.
