FAIRWAY FASHION Ian Poulter’s stylish attire isn’t just a very public way of making himself stand out in a crowd. Clothes are a genuine passion for the charismatic 39-year-old. So much so, the golfing apparel brand he founded, IJP Design, follows his own philosophy very closely, creating an extensive range of high quality, distinctive clothing, that is both functional and fashionable, to ensure you look good on and off the course. “My philosophy has always been ‘Look Good, Play Great’ – This may not be as important to others but it works for me! I decided to launch my own line after being unable to find clothes I wanted to wear on the golf course that both looked good and performed well. IJP Design does both these things”.
