While the legacy of Nigel Cabourn is back and stronger than ever this fall, you'll have to pick up a copy of issue Number 01 for an in-depth look at the man and his brand. Our Fashion Director, Simon Roe, wrote a great piece titled 'Nigel Cabourn: The Ascent in Context' – which is worth buying the issue for alone in my opinion. It's said the that some of the more technical outwear pieces are the stars of Nigel Cabourn's work, but there is one piece that he seems to be wearing himself a fair bit, and I wouldn't mind doing the same. The Tenzing jacket originally, is now known as the Mallory after is slightly updated modifications. The Harris Tweed / Ventile combination is at it's prime with this rugged sport coat. The 6-button front comes in a handful of tweed patterns and colours, my favorites being this perfect navy blue, and a more teal-infused blue which nobody seems to have bought in North America or Europe. The Mallory is one of my favorite items from Nigel Cabourn, and sure to be a closet staple for decades to come.
