PROVENANCE [ EXMOOR OVERCOATING ]

This West of England overcoating collection is all woven in Fox Brothers' Somerset Mill.  Fox has been weaving fine cloth since 1772. The Cloth in this bunch uses 100% Merino Lambswool.

The overcoating cloths take reference for Fox Brothers extensive archive held at our Somerset Mill. The cloths are classic and timeless using traditional methods that Fox have pioneered over many generations.

In addition to being the original creators of flannel, Fox Brothers’ long and illustrious history includes the development of the serge drape mixture, now known worldwide as khaki, which was given Royal approval by the Prince of Wales in 1900.
