Castore was founded by brothers Tom and Phil Beahon, who wanted to create a premium sportswear brand for Scotland. Andy Murray, who supports Castore with product design, development and styling advice, believes that tennis players deserve more than just plain clothes. “I think tennis should be fun, and with Castore, I’m creating a range of tennis gear that looks good and feels great,” he said.
