Duffle coat, made in London, with a heavy (28oz) tweed woven in Scotland — in a mill in an old boat-shed on the Morayshire coastline, no less, operated every step of the way singlehandedly with weaving contraptions of Victorian heritage — using the natural, undyed wool of Herdwick sheep from the Lake District. Hand-made horn toggles, also, from the north-west of England.
Sizing
The duffle fits true to size, and thus the mannequin — a 40 chest since the day he was born — wears a size M. It falls to the knee on persons of average height, and is cut in a relaxed, spacious way, so that it may be worn over a shirt, jumper, and jacket in winter.

So they say
I just received the duffle coat. Thank you for the impeccable coat and service. This is another beautiful garment, and is just the length I was looking for. This material is very comfortable, it looks solid and warm, but doesn’t irritate my skin even when I tried it on with only a t-shirt. Those horn buttons are lovely as well. The sizing of your coats is always perfect. Thank you so much for your time and kind service. I'll probably purchase a navy one next year ...
Just wanted to drop a note and say that after putting a few weeks of wear into it, the duffle is absolutely perfect. I nipped the sleeve a half-inch, but otherwise the lengths are spot-on, and the shoulder and chest are just roomy enough to layer a heavy lambswool cardigan or tweed sportscoat. This is the best piece of outerwear in my closet — and I own a couple of old [one brand] jackets and a [another brand] jacket, and a repro peacoat by [another brand] from Japan. It has already garnered more compliments than all of those other jackets combined, as well as a few quizzical looks from the stodgier partners in my law firm (oh well). It's a simple coat, but the horn toggles and hopsack cloth make it truly unique and special in the world of duffle. I am especially taken with the cloth: warm enough for the New England winter but springy in body and with much better drape than the melton of my peacoat. I am positive that I will be back again for another coat in the coming years.
I knew when I saw it that I needed it. It is probably the most complimented (by complete strangers) garment in my closet. I love the fabric, and the hidden pocket tucked behind the yoke on the left chest is a very useful detail.
I received my duffle coat a couple of weeks ago. It fits perfectly, and the quality is wonderful. I thought I was crazy to buy such an expensive thing, but I know I will keep it for a long time, and it was a good investment. Congratulations for making such a beautiful coat!
