Walter Stöhr founded his company in 1948 with the production of socks. He broadened the range and 1961 he began to use modern knit machines. Many department stores, shops and purchasing associations are interested in the hats, headbands, baby sets and pullover in premium-quality by Stöhr.

The accomplished combination of functionality, quality and fashion know-how convinced famous labels and they started to produce their products by Stöhr in the early 90s. 2006 the Stöhr Knitwear lines „active“, „casual“ and „young stars“ were born. With the collections „Stöhrfaktor“, „Stöhrmanöver“, „Stöhrimpuls“ and „Stöhrenfried“ catered the perfect headgear for all tastes and ages. Up to now, the company Stöhr Knitwear is still family-owned.
