Gloverall »Slim Between« Ladies Duffle Coat

Description

According to history, the duffle coat originates from the small Belgian town of Duffel in the province of Antwerp, which became known in Europe in the 17th century as the capital of cloth-making and exported its products all over Europe. The »duffle« was a black, rough wool fabric. The local people sold the warm fabric and used it to sew clothes for fishermen. The longer cut jackets with collar buckle and a loose hood, or »duffle« coats, provided excellent protection for fishermen from the harsh weather at sea. However, the classic Duffle Coat was never manufactured in the town of the same name, nor was it made of duffle fabric. It was standard issue of the British Navy during the war and was made famous by Field Marshal Montgomery.

The »Slim Mid Duffle« is a more modern and shorter version of the classic duffle coat. Femininely tailored and in a bold red, this duffle coat goes with almost any style. The warming hood, patch pockets, tried-and-tested buffalo horn toggles and characteristic leather ties, which can be opened and closed quickly even with thick gloves, along with the knee-length cut are the attributes of a true classic. The outer fabric, made by a weaving mill in Italy, is intricately woven together in a »double face« style, plain on the outside and worked in the traditional tartan pattern on the inside. The modern short duffle coat is the perfect blend of sporty casualness and classic tailoring.

Designed and made in England.

Manufacturer

GLOVERALL

Since its inception in 1951, British company Gloverall has been the pioneer of the classic duffle coat. Five years after the end of World War II, Gloverall started its success story. Harold Morris and his wife Freda were offered a large quantity of surplus military duffle coats, which quickly sold out. This success prompted Harold, son of a master tailor, and Freda to produce their own duffle coats for their new company Gloverall. The name »Gloverall« is a combination of the two words »Gloves« and »Overall« – the original core business of the Morris family. Craftsmanship, high-quality materials and fine fabrics are at the forefront of the workmanship of Gloverall duffle coats. The classic model is wonderfully recognisable by its striking toggle fastenings, opulent pockets on the front and the large hood. The heavy wool fabric used has a warming effect and protects against moisture – perfect for bad weather. Gloverall keeps reinventing the classic duffle coat. The wool coats made from premium British fabrics brave all weathers and have been made in Northamptonshire for more than 70 years. To this day, the brand's jackets and coats embody a timeless and durable style beyond all fashion trends.
