In these cold winter months, any news on outerwear should be celebrated like a huntsmen returning to camp with fresh kill, or a sample sale, add in the term ‘heavy down’ and one may reach climbs of ecstasy. Brrrrilliant! Hands together then for 35 year old brand Penfield’s second collaboration with, Kentucky originating Rag & Bone in giving us reason to make amends with the outside. With two variations on the 'Mallory' coat, "the collaboration truly exemplifies the best of Penfield’s rich outdoor heritage and Rag & Bone’s fashion-forward approach to classic sportswear", enthuses Penfield CEO Jamie Barshall. Available in either black thorn proof wool (thorns naturally being the coat’s arch-nemesis) complete with a contrasting corduroy shoulder yoke or in a deep khaki. Available at Harrods now, this new collaboration sounds as cosy and rugged as a Mills and Boon novel, just how we like our outerwear.
