The peacoat is made with tweed woven in a mill inside a boat-shed on the Morayshire coastline, with every step performed singlehandedly with weaving machinery of Victorian vintage, using the tough, undyed wool of Herdwick sheep from the Lake District. More
The funny thing about the weatherproof ripstop from which the trench is made is that, despite being twice as tough as old boots — being a twin-layer ripstop of the toughest fibres around — it is also light and airy and comfortable in even the most sticky climes. More
The peacoat and its preposterous collar are back once again, and once again in heavy woollen melton from the Heavy Woollen District of West Yorkshire. A reproduction of old military cloth, this — so faithful it's the very same mill making it, 200-plus years on. More

The topcoat is a smart and single-breasted overcoat, cut much in the manner of a tailored jacket but far, far longer. It is made with tweed from a family run mill in County Donegal in Ireland, alive with tufts of unexpected shades, from amber to auburn to bright white. More

This is the British warm — a long double-breasted overcoat in the tailored tradition, only with lapels so sharp they routinely prod unwary eyeballs, a vent at the back so vertiginous it inspires vertigo, and a soft, relaxed shoulder found typically only on golf sweaters. More

This is a disaster and no mistake. The tielocken was meant to be a no-fuss version of the trench. But look what happened. Two inverted pleats, a two-piece belt with four buckles, a sleeve half raglan and half set-in, and five or six pockets. Where did it all go wrong? More
A woven of mass distraction, this, from Scotland, comprising not two not three but four — four! — different types of fibre. There's cotton, linen, silk, and wool, together imbuing the cloth with enough character to surprise and delight even the most seasoned eyeball. More

The cloth from which the balmacaan is made is, yes, okay, brown — but it's so much more than that. It's a barleycorn tweed from Northern Ireland, alive with numberless, numerous, and beyond number little fluffy nuggets of wool, from chalk to auburn to chestnut. More
