Private White V.C.

Inspired by family heritage and born out of a devotion to British manufacturing, ‘Private White V.C.‘ is committed to producing quality everyday menswear using the finest British materials and craftsmanship. The collection is designed by former head of Dunhill menswear, Nick Ashley and directly influenced by Jack White’s own wardrobe. Private Jack White was a true English gentleman and military hero. He was also a founding father of the Manchester factory that now manufactures in his name. The result is wearable contemporary garments which balance both timeless style and functionality.

Seil Marschall

Seil Marschall has been handmaking fine clothing & accessories since 1896. Based in Southern Germany, it is a small company that hasn’t changed much over all these years; believing that their quality would not be possible to produce in big quantities, preferring instead to offer their goods to a unique group of customers who recognize the quality of a fine handmade product.
Using the finest natural materials and accessories available they take as much time as they need to manufacture long lasting products to protect you in the most extreme conditions.

First we have the ‘LW Climbers Pack’ made from a rugged navy canvas & full grain vegetable tanned bridle leather. Features padded back & padded adjustable shoulder straps, adjustable waist strap, zippered pocket on lid, two inner compartments, brass zippers & fittings and all seams are piped with cotton for extra durability. Each piece is made to last a lifetime. We should be getting a few more colors soon.

Also arrived even if a little late are the ‘Naturemocs’ – a handsewn leather moccasin with crepe sole. The whole inner of the shoe is lined in wool for warmth & comfort, making these incredibly comfortable. Maybe a little late in the season but we thought we’d put them on the site anyway, just in case you live in Antarctica. Will also be available in black.
