UK menswear brands, often with an impressive heritage and commitment to manufacturing locally, have sustainability at their core but that doesn’t mean they can rest on their laurels when it comes to innovation.

RAPPORT London

• Peregrine can trace raw materials directly back to the source
• Johnstons of Elgin: producing feather-light Cashmere and Merino Wool styles for all seasons
