Hi all, when starting Field and Moor like many projects you end up doing what you want and think is what others want! However when talking to people in business, shooting colleagues and friends you start gettting lots of feed back, some good, some bad, some interesting but all worth an ear to there views and comments. One such area was mentioned to me three times in one week and it was something i had very little knowledge, only a brief outline when my parents had a clothes fashion shop in the Cotswolds, and this idea was to offer good quality proper cut Ladies Shooting Clothing i had been asked for this on a driven day by a lady who was tired of wearing small mens / large boys breeks and wanted know if i would start selling ladies shooting clothing As it happened Hoggs of Fife launched a ladies shooting jacket, the Lady Mey which has proved to be a big success. One thing that was very strange is to why there was no breeks to match?? well 12 months on we are stillwaiting for them...........
Now with the latest 2010 catalogue from the very well known and respected outdoor clothing manufacturer Deerhunter it looks as this has now been resolved. Launching in the spring 2010 is the a range of shooting clothing for ladies to match any mens outfits and without doubt the ladies will look far better than us men, sorry chaps but don't think i am wrong!! whilst also not wishing to be sexist either, Hey this has been a big learning curve for us here at Field and Moor but one which we think is very worthwhile.
This particular range comes in two colours Moss Green and Mustard (and yes they look fab) and in a fours piece consisting of Jacket, Waist Coat, Breeks and a Cape, although this is only available in Moss Green, dont ask me why?? and a selection of hats and caps, they are made from 100% wool with the DeerTex Supreme membrane, Double water repellent material for which Deerhunter are renown for and this bit is the best, ALL are Machine washable even being 100% wool which would normallly mean a costly trip to the Dry Cleaners each week but not with this clothing. (I was advised on the washing machine bit by the lady of the house!!)
Hope you enjoyed this article and please feel free to leave a comment.
