Step 01
The cloth
Wool from Fox Brothers in Wellington. Twelve weeks from order to delivery. Cut from a single bolt per piece so the pattern runs true across the back.
AW25 · A small collection
Eight pieces, made over the summer in a workshop above the cricket pavilion. Cloth from Fox Brothers, lining cut from offcuts. Each piece signed and numbered. Two collections a year, no more.
From the workshop
The cloth arrives in late June, twelve weeks after we order it. Three of those weeks are spent on the mill floor in Wellington, where the wool is wound onto bobbins by hand. Another six in cutting and basting. By the time it's ready to wear, October is already cold.
We've been asked, more than once, why we don't simply hold stock. The answer is that holding stock is how a small workshop becomes a brand, and a brand becomes a problem.

The Workshop
Wool from Fox Brothers in Wellington. Twelve weeks from order to delivery. Cut from a single bolt per piece so the pattern runs true across the back.
Hand-basted by Anya in the front workshop. Three fittings on the dummy before the first stitch hits the cloth. Each piece signed inside the breast pocket.
Buttons by Studio Magnus in Northampton. Horn for the cuffs, brass for the breast. Hand-stitched lining cut from offcuts of the season's main cloth.
From the press
“Harlow & Finch's first collection is the kind of restraint that the industry has spent a decade trying, and mostly failing, to remember.”
“Twelve coats, made one at a time, in a workshop above a cricket pavilion. The pricing is a quiet miracle.”
“If you've been waiting for a British overcoat that doesn't look like every other British overcoat — this is the one.”
“An honest, small label doing the unglamorous version of what most of menswear pretends to do.”
Visit
The workshop is open to clients by appointment, Wednesday through Saturday. Fittings take about an hour. There's a kettle and a sofa, and a view of the cricket pitch if the season's on.
