Kit, like decent clobber. That took all day to come up with. Every now and then you just need a bit of a silly adventure and rock-hopping our way up steam was a good way to kill an afternoon. It was made better by the fact that Dickies…
Following our beanie-jacket collaboration back in October, we’ve spent this winter season in awe at the waterproof greatness which Rab delivers. Sometimes, however (and granted, in the Lakes they’re rare) you get a day when it isn’t hammering down blistering rain – it’s just really, really cold. That’s…
Founded way back when in 1976, Vision Street Wear were at the forefront of skate culture, one of the first brands to specifically cater to riders and the community during the Z Boys era, and later sponsoring the legendary Mark Gonzales. After a quiet couple decades, their big,…
On an average day in the W.C.H. office, if you layered up all of our tees back to back the result would be ballistic protection more effective than kevlar. We love a thick, heavyweight jersey – so much so that we’ve decided to weave together a few of…
Based in Stockholm, and appearing undoubtedly Swedish, Stutterheim was founded over 10 years ago as an understated, effective and stylish solution to Scandinavia’s sheer amount of rainfall. Inspired by the classic fisherman’s raincoat, their aptly named Stockholm Jacket is made from a completely waterproof rubberised cotton, perfect for…
New Balance’s self-explanatory Made In England collection is always an absolute winner, but what makes them way nicer for us is that they’re all made less than an hour’s drive from our Ulverston base, up the coast in Flimby. No, these pictures aren’t taken near Flimby, we actually…
The mountains aren’t currently blanketed with snow, and we’ve been forced to prohibit Russian Roulette on W.C.H. premises, but that doesn’t mean we can’t channel our inner De Niro in some of Holubar’s iconic parka silhouettes. Established in Boulder, Colorado, in 1946, Holubar Mountaineering are known for making…
We’re well happy to present to you our second collaboration with Armor Lux. The staple French label have been weaving their wonders since 1938 in their home of Quimper, Brittany, and our first collab with them was a take on a classic striped tee, but that was last…
We’re stoked to announce our second collaboration with Brittany’s Armor Lux. We made a tee with them last spring, so it only makes sense to upgrade the weight as we move into the dark, frozen months. A well-needed midlayer. Our two colourways of the Tie Dye Pocket Sweat…
Sure, it doesn’t often hit negative degrees, and as far as we’re aware there aren’t any volcanoes either, but in the Lakes we’re massive fans of a serious winter jacket, especially if it feels tough enough that it could even take on some lava. That’s why every winter…
If you every want a good, pocketed, boxy, lightweight jacket which looks the business and serves you well on a vertical gander, then look no further than Korea’s Uniform Bridge. We’ve gone on about UB’s jackets and ready-to-wear jersey pieces a few times now, and we’re going on…
It’s actually a bit staggering how many random piles of slate there are in the Lakes. We took a drive out and passed about 4 before deciding to get out and play on one. One pile linked onto another, and another, and about 15 minutes later we were…
