Grenfell's autumn/winter 2019 collection is inspired by classic British men’s designs and the 1950s beat scene

Linked to some of the greatest British endeavours, Grenfell cloth was designed for doctor-cum-philanthropist Sir Wilfred Thomason Grenfell, and since it was founded in 1923, Grenfell has become renowned for being worn during all manner of intrepid adventures by mountaineers, aviators and explorers.

Handmade by skilled craftspeople in east London, each Grenfell coat is created to last, and the autumn/winter 2019 collection is inspired by classic British men’s designs and the 1950s beat scene. For a sophisticated take on the classic trench coat, the Mayfair style is made in waxed cotton and features plush corduroy lapels, all woven in the UK, to provide comfort and resilient yet sartorial style suitable for any urban jaunt or rural exploit.
