FABRIC
- Outer cloth: 760g wool. The origin is 'Donegal Yarns': the last remaining spinner of the product in Donegal, Ireland. The tiny mill has been spinning that distinctive flecked yarn since the 19th century, and the Kilcarra tweed we used in our coat deliberately echoes the feeling of the very first incarnations. The mill also dyes, blends, cards and spins all itself - all in a tiny operation between the heather-topped hills and the Irish coast.
- The yarn was then woven by Mallalieus of Delph, a small family-run mill in the middle of the Pennines that dates back to 1863. It is also one of the few vertically integrated mills left in England.
- 100% cashmere pocketing.

We don’t make many of our jackets. Because everything is made by hand at our factory in
Manchester, England, there are only so many that end up in the world. When you see someone
wearing it, you know it’s a rare garment.
Customer Care
Our objective is clear and simple. We expect our clothes to perform and we want our customers to be happy with the quality.
Lifetime repair service
Every single component of a Private White V.C. garment has been subject to stringent performance testing from internationally accredited independent laboratories (we use BBTG as it is less than 5 miles from the factory) to minimise the chances of any latent defects, material faults or underperformance. The following are just a few of the routine tests that we undertake: Tensile strength seam slippage tear strength water repellency colour fastness.
On occasions there may be instances whereby a garment doesn’t quite perform as expected and there may be issues with delicate yarns, natural horn buttons or hand-made button holes. As and when such anomalies arise we will stand by our products. More information here.
Meet the Heroes
The exceptional outerwear we’re known for. We’ve been making these jackets over and over for many years, refining the fit, fabric, texture, and durability with each new iteration. They’re the best of the best, and the culmination of our craft.
