Tweed & Tartan
The Peck Tweed
An iconic tweed on Savile Row, and around the world, The Peck tweed actually has its roots in Hollywood, first commissioned for Gregory Peck in 1962. An instant classic, the house adopted this tweed as our signature shortly after, and today it remains a firm favourite; with new colourways and limited edition styles produced seasonally.
Suiting & Business
The Springfield Stripe
A humble re-discovery for a cloth right out of the rock and roll hall of fame.
When an eagle-eyed thrifter discovered this Huntsman suit in a goodwill store; little did they know it once belonging to legendary Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts.
Over 35 years later, the original suit inspired the contemporary worsted cloth.
Cashmere & Luxury Cloths
The Peck Houndstooth Cashmere
In 2015, Huntsman produced its first cashmere sports jacketing cloth in more than 60 years. A faithful reproduction of a heritage Johnstons of Elgin cloth, first woven in 1953, this black, navy and olive houndstooth came to our attention when we exhibited the Gregory Peck archive of Huntsman outfits. Of the 15 items on display, it was the actor’s houndstooth sports coat from 1961 that drew the most requests – for the cloth and the coat.
To create its contemporary counterpart, today we work with Joshua Ellis, a merchant renowned the world over for producing the finest handcrafted cashmere and wool, to create a richly textured, soft cashmere yarn that transcended fashion while remaining distinguished and discreet.
