It also features two dual entry hip pockets with button fastening, underarm vents and an adjustable buttoned cuff. Internally the jacket is partially lined.

- 100% Beeswax coated cotton.

The original inspiration for the Authentic Line was Sir Edmund Hillary and the 1953 Ascent of Everest; it was first launched in its present form in 2003 to coincide with the 50th Anniversary. This was such a remarkable human achievement and the clothes worn were basically all military, customised for the climb. Nigel had many of the originals in his vintage library so he set about recreating them as close to the originals as possible. He used British manufacturers and original British fabrics. Nigel produced a collection without compromise and where certain components were no longer available they were specially made.

Today every Authentic Range follows the very same philosophy, it will have a real story and sense of history and integrity but at the highest level of quality.
