Soft Stretch Moleskin

Moleskin is a densely woven cotton fabric known for its soft brushed surface, substantial feel and durability.

The addition of 2% elastane introduces useful stretch, allowing the breeks to move more comfortably when walking, bending or crossing uneven ground.

PFAS-Free Water-Repellent Finish

The fabric is treated with Teflon EcoElite™, a PFAS-free water-repellent finish that helps light rain and moisture bead away from the surface.

This offers a practical first line of defence against changeable countryside weather, although the breeks are not fully waterproof.

Traditional Pleated Styling

Subtle pleats at the front give the Durness a traditional shape and provide additional room through the upper leg.

The Olive Green colouring coordinates easily with tweed jackets, shooting waistcoats, country shirts and long shooting socks.

Adjustable Lower-Leg Cuffs

Hook-and-loop tabs allow the cuffs to be adjusted securely around the lower leg and positioned neatly over shooting socks.

False antique-brass adjusters provide the appearance of traditional buckled breeks while the concealed hook-and-loop fastening offers quick, straightforward adjustment.

Practical Pocket Layout

Two side pockets at the front keep everyday items within easy reach.

A jet pocket at the back adds further storage while preserving the neat lines of the traditional breeks design.

Made for Country Pursuits

The combination of soft cotton, added stretch and adjustable cuffs makes the Durness suitable for shoot days and other active country occasions.

Wear them with a tattersall shirt and waistcoat in milder conditions or add a warm pullover and field coat when temperatures fall.
