United KingdomAbsolute quality...
I bought this for my husband for Christmas as he'd been dropping hints forever. It is so beautifully made, lovely attention to detail, fantastic muted colour (the olive) and an amazing waxed finish. It's been a bit too cold to use as a 'shacket' but it will be tested proper as outdoor wear once the weather turns a bit warmer. In the meantime he's been modelling it inside. We've bought quite a few things from TLC and love them all. Highly recommend the company, its values and all of its products
United KingdomSuper shacket!
Bought this for my hubby’s birthday present in December. Apparently it is now his favorite piece of clothing! Very high quality (as you would expect for the price) and a lovely fit and - coming from the wife - it looks darn good! Mark’s comms through out were great , the packaging was all eco friendly and it’s great to know the shipping is done by a very worthwhile cause. What’s not to love.

It’s not really what I think, like all their wonderful products, I love it. It’s the reaction from others; “that’s very smart….”, “cool, where did you get it…..”, “ lovely colour….” etc…. that does it justice. You won’t be disappointed.
United KingdomGreat quality, great look!
Cool jacket, functional and also looks very smart. I found the size/fit great and also the quality. 4 stars, just because it was so pricey, but then again it’s nice to support small British brands!
United KingdomThis is what I've been waiting for!
If there's anybody on the fence about this item, go for it! From the first time I received the email about this item, I knew Mark and the team would execute this perfectly and they really have! I know this shacket will be with me for many years to come and age beautifully. It's already proven to be a conversation starter and I am so excited for it to soften with time. Thanks again and I can't wait to see what you guys have in store for us in 2022! A very happy customer!

Weatherproof waxed organic cotton
Weatherproof waxed organic cotton with ripstop weave, dyed and proofed in Britain. Protecting you when caught in a rain shower, the Fluorocarbon-free (FCF) dry impregnated waxed finish doesn’t crack or transfer on to other surfaces, but it ages beautifully. Plus, the ripstop weave (subtle square pattern) is woven with double warp and weft threads, making a crosshatch pattern which is resistant to tears and rips. In short: it’s super durable.
