Dress Would Be Not Just to Wear But for Poise and Fulfillment.
McGREGOR is an American casualwear and sportswear brand founded in New York, USA, in 1921 by David D. Doniger. It began when Doniger, whose roots were in Scotland, incorporated the McGregor family crest and house check into a sporty, clean style. Its signature pieces include the Drizzler Jacket and Anti-Freeze Jacket, introduced in 1945. Today, the brand offers menswear, womenswear, golfwear, and more. In Japan, Sojitz Infinity oversees the business, presenting American casualwear centered on an identity and quality grounded in tradition.

McGREGOR Budge Dragon is a collaborative line launched in 2008 as a joint project between McGREGOR and BEAMS. Based on 1960s American casualwear, it was developed as a collection that pursued contemporary silhouettes, material qualities, comfort, and functionality while incorporating BEAMS’ editorial approach. Rather than reproducing the parent brand’s historic American casualwear as it was, the line was characterized by its contemporary reinterpretation for younger men. Unlike McGREGOR CLASSIC’s everyday family-oriented offerings and Rags McGREGOR’s rock and vintage expression, it was a line responsible for proposing a fresh take on American casualwear through collaboration with an external partner.

McG+K is a men's line launched for the Fall/Winter 2010–2011 season through a collaboration between McGREGOR and TEAMKIT JAPAN. Building on McGREGOR's accumulated history in American casualwear, it incorporated TEAMKIT JAPAN's contemporary perspective on menswear, along with its material and design proposals, to develop a style for adults distinct from the existing main line. In contrast to Budge Dragon, a joint project with BEAMS aimed at younger consumers, and Rags McGREGOR, which emphasized rock and vintage influences, it was positioned as a derivative line that presented a more mature men's wardrobe and highlighted the collaborating partner's expertise.

A second line focused on family life and everyday lifestyles

McGREGOR CLASSIC is a second line launched by Sojitz Infinity in 2010. Building on McGREGOR’s American trad heritage, it incorporated Japan-specific design and European influences, expanding into lifestyle offerings that included accessories as well as clothing. Its primary audience was families in their 30s, and its focus on urban shopping centers and stores suited to family visits distinguished it from Budge Dragon and Rags McGREGOR, which were more menswear-focused and specialized. After serving to extend the parent brand’s heritage into more everyday, family-oriented retail settings, the line paused its operations in February 2016.

Rags McGREGOR is a Japanese menswear label that emerged from McGREGOR in Fall/Winter 2011. Building on its parent brand’s American casual style, it incorporated elements of sports, military, outdoor, and vintage styles, as well as music, rock, and art, and reworked them for the contemporary Japanese casual scene. In contrast to McGREGOR’s traditional and everyday American casual styles, it was characterized by its emphasis on the distressed look of vintage clothing, a rock aesthetic, and highly independent styling. Unlike the family-oriented McGREGOR CLASSIC and the collaboration-based Budge Dragon, it was developed as a design-focused line for younger men and was suspended in 2018.

F.McGREGOR is a line for women launched by McGREGOR in 2019. Building on the authentic American casual style developed by its parent brand, it has evolved toward a modern preppy style guided by the idea of “wearing traditional style in a fun and free-spirited way.” In contrast to the sporty, clean American casual style of the main McGREGOR line, it is characterized by its silhouettes and styling tailored to women’s wardrobes. Unlike the main line, which focuses on menswear, McGREGOR GOLF, which specializes in golf, and Mc McGREGOR, which represents a contemporary expression of menswear, it plays a role in broadening the appeal of traditional style in the women’s category.

McGREGOR WineLabel is a men’s line for adults launched by McGREGOR in 2020.

It also incorporates iconic elements of the brand, such as the classic Drizzler, and is characterized by offerings that take materials, tailoring, and wearability into account. Unlike F.McGREGOR for women, McGREGOR GOLF, which specializes in golf, and next-generation-oriented Mc McGREGOR, this line deepens McGREGOR’s heritage into everyday wear for adults.
