A melton duffle with horn toggles, a Tattersall collar, a lambswool band and a bridle-leather harness.

The ensemble
- Short melton duffle coat, horn toggles on leather loops along the side, a plain back yoke, no hood
- Tattersall-check flannel collar and cuffs, cream with fine red and green lines, the cuffs at the elbow
- Flat band of oatmeal ribbed lambswool, stitched along the collar's edge, no loose ends
- Dark-brown bridle-leather harness with brass rings, worn over the coat
You approve the three measurements before anything is cut.
How it is fitted
It is cut to three measurements: neck, chest and back. You approve all three before anything is cut. After you commission, you take them at home with a sheet of paper, and we show you the numbers. How it is measured
The promise
If a finished measurement is more than 2 cm off the numbers you approved, or the piece gapes or pulls, we remake it once, free, and you send nothing back. Because it is cut to one dog, it cannot be returned.
How it goes on
Every piece fastens at the side or under the chest, and the knits open along the back, so nothing goes over the head. Collars lie flat on the arch of the neck or roll softly at its base, and nothing sits at the throat. Sleeves stop at the elbow, and the belly band closes behind the ribs, so the long legs and the tail stay free.
Shown on
Shown in ochre on a brindle Whippet, a wide beach at low tide below the pine woods. Bottle green, for fawn, red, cream, white and parti coats. Camel, for blue and black. The pattern is redrawn for your dog's shape.
