Its a Rainy old Sunday and there is nothing else to do but go to the Pub, there is a very cool place in Welcombe, traditional with a big twist for the countryside.. Its a surf pub with great beer and food.. So this is where l spent the day, a reason to get the tweeds out.

Down in Devon



Does it get better than this? Hartland and Clovelly in Devon where the Griffin Operation is based, is looking pretty damn beautiful right now. The tiny fishing village of Clovelly switched on its Christmas lights the other day, the display is something else, plus all the donations go to the amazing R.N.L.I who brave the wild weather and storms of the North Devon Coast to save lives.



Fox Bros.





Went and visited the Fox Bros factory yesterday... the old factory employed 800 people in the old build now knocked down. I only know of 2 wool mills in the south, and fox does the best flannel in the country.

This season we have used a beautiful Fox Bros tweed and Flannel in the Griffin Quay Coat, Minehead, USMC Shorts, Bearskin Coat and Exmoor Jacket. - Tradition meets Technology, embodied.

Quay Coat




Just have a look and see the quality of manufacturing, Bonded wool, laser cut,  the cloth, and cut.. Its such a lovely coat..

My Biker Pant

l have this trouser and here it is hanging in the factory, the shape is fantastic and love to give it turn ups. l haven't washed them since Japan and the fabric from Limonta is getting better and better you would think its from an old Barbour, but its easy and with stretch in it.. l love them, also l keep going on about the Quay coat let me go and take a photo..

The Biker Pant

Another great piece from this seasons collection, the pant is slim cut and features intricate asymmetric and oval paneling on the leg,
allowing it to take on a three dimensional shape even when lying flat and creating a fantastic fit.
The Supa Wet material is an Italian cotton sateen that has almost a dry wax look with a softer, less paper-like drape. Available in Black and Midnight. Its a limited edition so head over to the shop to get your hands on a pair now:
