Many of the UK fashion brands featured on style is… have pioneered new ways of combining sustainability with performance for ethical coats and jackets that are waterproof and free from toxic chemicals.
At Timberland, ethical coats and jackets are made both from recyled materials and leather made in highly rated tanneries for minimal impact on the environment. Seasalt Cornwall raincoats are made from their own unique organic cotton fabric or Tin Cloth® which has been inspired by waterproof coats of fisherman but the coating is an eco friendly alternative to the tar oir linseed that was traditionally used.
