If you found yourself paying almost as much attention to the clothes as the storyline in The Gentlemen, you were not the only one. The series has brought classic British country style back into focus, with plenty of tweed, checked shirts, practical outerwear and earthy colours.
Rather than concentrating on one character or copying an exact outfit, we have created The Gentlemen Collection at A Farley as a wearable edit of the overall look.
It brings together smart country clothing and practical outdoor pieces from brands including Härkila, Dubarry, Le Chameau, Barbour and Marc Darcy. These are clothes that capture the style of the series but still make sense for shooting days, country walks, weekends away and everyday wear.
What Is The Gentlemen Collection?
The A Farley Gentlemen Collection combines genuine Härkila styles associated with the Netflix series with complementary pieces from some of our other favourite country brands.
Not every item in the collection appears on screen. Instead, we have chosen products that share the same recognisable look: traditional fabrics, practical designs and a colour palette built around olive green, brown, navy, tan and subtle checks.
The result is less about dressing like a television character and more about building a country wardrobe that looks smart without feeling overly formal.
Start with a Proper Country Shirt
A checked country shirt is one of the easiest ways to introduce The Gentlemen style into an everyday outfit.
The Härkila Portfield Long Sleeve Shirt in Grape Leaf is part of Härkila’s Season 2 collection. Made from a cotton-rich fabric with a small amount of stretch, it has a traditional appearance without feeling stiff or restrictive.
Wear it with dark chinos and boots for a simple weekend outfit, or add a gilet or tweed jacket when you want something smarter. The muted check also makes it easy to combine with brown, green, navy and stone.
Add a Smart Fleece Gilet
One thing this style does particularly well is layering. A shirt, gilet and jacket immediately looks considered, while each layer can be removed as the weather changes.
The Härkila Sandhem 200 Fleece Gilet in Grape Leaf is ideal for achieving that look. The Polartec® Thermal Pro® fleece provides lightweight warmth, while the leather trim, checked lining and corduroy details give it a smarter finish than a standard outdoor fleece.
It works over a shirt for a pub lunch or country show, but it is practical enough to wear for shooting, travelling or walking the dog. On colder days, it also sits comfortably beneath a coat.
Choose Tweed That Can Handle British Weather
Tweed is central to British country style, but it does not have to be reserved for formal shooting days.
The Härkila Kenmore GTX Tweed Jacket in Terragon Brown combines a traditional 100% wool tweed outer with a waterproof and windproof GORE-TEX membrane.
From the outside, it has the smart appearance of a classic tweed shooting coat. Underneath, it offers the weather protection needed for wet and windy days in the countryside.
This is a good choice if you like traditional country clothing but still expect your coat to be genuinely useful. Wear it with breeks for a shoot day or make it more relaxed with dark trousers, a checked shirt and leather boots.
Finish the Outfit with Proper Boots
Footwear makes a big difference to this look. Trainers can make a smart country outfit feel too casual, while formal shoes are not always practical for British weather.
The Härkila Reidmar Mid 2.0 GTX Boots in Dark Brown provide the right balance. The full-grain leather gives them a traditional appearance, while the waterproof GORE-TEX membrane, Vibram® sole and supportive construction make them suitable for long days outdoors.
They work particularly well with olive or brown country trousers, but they can also be worn with jeans when you want the outfit to feel more relaxed.
The Gentlemen Style for Women
The collection is not limited to menswear. The same combination of texture, practical layers and natural colours works just as well for women.
The Härkila Skye Shooting Waistcoat for Women adds a traditional country layer without making an outfit feel too heavy. Wear it over a shirt or fine knit with tailored trousers, jeans or a country skirt.
Accessories can also bring the look together. The Dubarry Butler Waterproof Fedora in Dark Olive adds a smarter finish while remaining practical in unpredictable weather.
The key is to choose one or two recognisably country pieces rather than wearing tweed, checks and leather from head to toe.
Three Easy Ways to Wear The Gentlemen Collection
Everyday Country Style
Start with the Härkila Portfield Shirt, add a Sandhem fleece gilet and finish with dark chinos or jeans. This gives you the country look without feeling as though you are dressed for a formal event.
Practical Outdoor Style
Pair the Härkila Kenmore GTX Tweed Jacket with weather-resistant trousers and Reidmar GTX boots. This outfit works well for shooting, countryside events and days when the forecast cannot make up its mind.
Smart Country Style for Women
Wear the Härkila Skye Shooting Waistcoat over a fitted shirt or fine knit, then add tailored trousers and leather country boots. A Dubarry fedora adds the finishing touch for race meetings, country shows or an autumn day out.
How Do You Get The Gentlemen Look Without Looking Overdressed?
The simplest answer is to avoid wearing every country style at once.
Choose one main piece, such as a tweed jacket, fleece gilet or checked shirt, and keep the rest of the outfit fairly simple. Plain trousers, good leather footwear and a neutral colour palette will make the outfit feel natural rather than costume-like.
It is also worth thinking about where you will actually wear the clothes. A full tweed outfit may be right for a formal shoot, while a gilet, shirt and boots will be more useful for everyday country life.
