Congratulations Amy Miller! WINNER Based in Mississippi, U.S.A Amy had admired Huntsman tweeds, from afar for quite a while.

Despite its age, the suit looks as good now as it did when it was first made at 42 years old! Fashions may change, but the quality of […]
It was an instagram post, which first captured the imagination of Huntsman owner Pierre Lagrange. Though he personally knew the Aboah family, he was formally, or informally, introduced to Kesewa’s work through the medium of social media, images of her work which fired his imagination. On invitation to Huntsman, it was clear how unique and […]
The two designs are in tones of mossy and grass green, punctuated with blue, claret, and black. The ladies’ cloth is woven in a light, fresh green, while the men’s is a darker, brooding tone. Both cloths feature Huntsman’s house colour – claret – with the distinguished shade anchoring the pattern. Huntsman’s Creative Director and […]

The ultimate in luxury, and exclusive to Huntsman Some of nature’s greatest treasures are to be found only in the very smallest of quantities. Such is Cervelt. Softer and lighter than cashmere, this fibre is rich in qualities that make it ideal for dressing the modern gentleman. Yet it is 200 times scarcer […]
Inspired by a great American theme, this cloth is made from Australia’s finest merino wool, using skills passed down through generations of Britain’s clothmakers. Understated and elegant, it nevertheless has a bold, expressive streak with its name marked in red, white and blue on the selvedge. “This cloth combines the lustre and wearability of a […]
Two classic designs have been brilliantly brought to life in collaboration with Joshua Ellis, one of England’s oldest cashmere makers. United by a shared passion for detail and commitment to quality, the firms have come together to produce two limited-edition blankets in celebration of the manufacturer’s 250th anniversary. Subtle, sophisticated and eye-catching: the moss Rutland and the green […]
