The Hebridean Collection
Ventile®, is densely woven from 100% cotton using the world’s finest long staple fibre.
Ventile® is not coated or laminated yet the combination of the dense weave and the swelling properties of the fibres when wet provide excellent weatherproofing.
It is an entirely natural product that offers a unique level of comfort, look and feel as well as being windproof, highly breathable, very durable and quiet.
The stitch method used within the construction of our Ventile garments ensures full weatherproofing by using a thread that swells on contact with water, thus having the same effect as the Ventile® fabric itself.
All our Ventile garments are made to order. Delivery is about 4/5 weeks.

Ventile® fabric was championed by explorers such as Edmund Hillary on the first summit of Everest and by Sir Ranulph Fiennes operating in the world's most extreme and hostile environments. The unique characteristics of Ventile® give it major advantages over modern technical fabrics of today and is still used on major Arctic, Antarctic and Himalayan expeditions.
