About Us
Grace & Game Golf was created to provide the modern
woman with gorgeous, utterly feminine golf clothes that perform on and
off the course.
For so long, golf clothes have been influenced heavily
by men’s golf clothing. And men have been lucky. There are great
options for men that allow them to wear their golf shirts and a
gorgeous pair of slacks to work, straight onto the course and then
straight into the clubhouse at the end of a satisfying round. Not the
same for women. Affordable and beautiful golf clothing options for
sophisticated women have been few and far between….until now.
Grace & Game understands that clothing is an
expression of a modern woman’s personality, and that when she looks
good, she feels more comfortable, capable, and powerful. The Grace
& Game Woman has game, on the course and in her life and career.
Now she can finally feel as gorgeous and capable on the course as she
is in every other part of her life.
Grace & Game was created by single mom and lawyer,
Jessica Eaves Mathews. She started golfing in 1992, and discovered
quickly that there were no golf clothing options for women who wanted
to be chic on the golf course. Inspired by the lack of choices, she
first came up with the idea for Grace & Game almost 13 years ago,
going so far as to have designs and patterns made, and branding
developed. But, as a young lawyer, her life got moving and it wasn't
until being on a golf course in Hawaii in February of 2008 while
wearing yet another "mini-man" golf outfit and baseball cap that she
decided it was time to finally launch.
Jessica's focus in her designs is making clothing that
takes its cues from the runways in Milan and New York and not from
other golf clothing manufacturers. Jessica's designs are beautifully
constructed, made of luxurious, and in many cases, sustainable fabrics,
are comfortable, gorgeous, feminine, and they also perform. These
are clothes that women will want to wear to work, to dinner and in
life, not just on the golf course. But they are also clothes that are
designed to perform on the course, because as much as any Grace &
Game woman wants to be gorgeous, she also wants to bring her best
game.
Grace & Game Golf is also committed to
being a responsible corporate citizen, both in the local, national and
global communities. As a result, a portion of our net proceeds will
always go to support our favorite organizations.
