The wool room is great I’ve heard
Farlows wool goods. Blankets, outdoors clothing, socks, etc... All spun in Scotland.
Cast iron kitchen ranges - AGA, Rayburn, Coalbrookdale.
Henry vacuum cleaner. I have cordless one, it is fantastic.
This I like
Haws watering cans
Ernest Wright scissors
Any shoe made in Northampton (Crockett and Jones, Edward Green, Cleverley, Church’s etc).
Hi-Fi equipment - Bowers and Wilkins, Cambridge Audio etc.
McNair woollen “mountain” shirts.
Brady bags.
Luggage/bags from Swaine Adeney Brigg.
Various furniture companies (eg Natural Bed Company).
Devon woollen duvets and pillows.
Definitely Barbour jackets also try r/madeinbritain although it’s not as active as it should be!
I bought some Cambridge Audio earphones and they're pretty wank ☹️
This, though they seem to be permanently out of stock on their website.
A Saville Row suit and a Jermyn Street shirt.
Great suggestion thank you!
Barbour Jacket
Have you checked out the Buy Me Once website? They’re a BIFL vendor based in the UK.
Private White VC - make top tier clothes Chester Jeffries - make bespoke leather gloves Trakke - Scottish handmade bags
I can’t speak to their BIFL but Wright Scissors are made in England https://youtu.be/bK4AWtTV3h4
Rega for hifi
Solovair isn't much different from buying Dr Martens. They are both mass-produced with cost effectiveness in mind. They are not built for longevity. Go to /r/Goodyearwelt for recommendations on quality boots.
