In the US, the brand is available in high-end stores such as Neiman Marcus, numerous specialised brand stores as well as in exclusive pro shops. Golf is a major focus for the brand. That comes accross in the collections and in the committment of the brand towards US PGA Tour Players such as the 2011 FedEx Cup Winner Bill Haas. And Peter Millar is the official supplier of the US Ryder Cup Team!

The first Peter Millar store outside of the USA was opened in Switzerland by the Cross-Court SA, owned and run by the Swiss Golfindustry veteran Reto Krauer, in Baar/Sihlbrugg. Do come visit: the collection is a hit! And you’ll surely meet André fitting new clothes in the beautiful showroon…

In PING André has always found a reliable and qualitative oustanding partner. In that André is not alone: top stars like Lee Westwood, Miguel Angel Jimenez, Angel Cabrera, Mark Calcavecchia and others bank on the ideal equipment. The same goes for the Ladies of course – see World Number Lorena Ochoa, Anna Nordqvist, I.K. Kim and many more.
