About Us

Stubbs & Stallion was inspired by Katie’s wish to raise money for the Foundation set up in honour of her University friend and hockey team-mate, Grace O’Malley-Kumar, who had tragically lost her life to a brutal knife attack in Nottingham in June 2023.  The initial range of T-Shirts and Joggers, customised with the Foundation logo, sold out quickly with all profits donated to the charity.

From this seed, an idea was born: offering “stash” - customised leisurewear for University, College and School sports clubs and societies - while continuing to support Raising Her Game, a proud partner of the Grace O’Malley-Kumar Foundation. The range has expanded to include hoodies as well as joggers, with hats and bags in the pipeline.  We produce high quality merchandise, then customise it either at source or here in the UK. For that extra personal touch, we can customise each item with details such as your initials.

The inspiration for Stubbs & Stallion was George Stubb’s magnificent painting of the stallion Whistlejacket, displayed in the National Gallery in London: https://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/paintings/george-stubbs-whistlejacket.  When our founder Katie was sitting at home with her Dad Tim discussing brand ideas, they looked up to see a canvas reproduction on their wall and felt it conveyed the balance of energy and style they were seeking.  George Stubbs was born in 1724, and Stubbs & Stallion was born just 200 years later.
