Created in Suffolk, England in the early 1970’s, it was the very first garment we made - shortly after developing the world’s first nylon quilted horse rug.
Originally designed for riding and stable work, it kept the body warm while allowing complete freedom of movement.
Before long, its practicality, durability and understated style carried it beyond the yard and into everyday wardrobes.
Today, we still make our gilets in Suffolk, England, holiday to the same standards of craftsmanship and quality.
