Sporting Hares have created the Windermere as a hard wearing yet seriously stylish gilet for every occasion.
The Windermere has a genuine suede leather outer which is soft to the touch but hard to the elements, not only providing the wearer with optimum comfort but the best protection from the variable weather we are faced with. It is the finishing touches that really make this gilet something to brag about, Sporting Hares put every last ounce of thought into their products and the Windermere is no different.
Sporting Hares was founded in 2011 by a farmer and countryman, Marc Brown, who wanted to create British made products for country pursuits. A huge amount of care and attention to detail goes into each creation taking it to the highest spec possible – the ultimate example of quality over quantity. Glaze & Gordon are hugely excited to be able to showcase Sporting Hares as it fast becomes a classic British brand.
