Inside the Atelier: Making the Margaux Coat

Double-faced wool is two cloths woven together, then separated by hand at every seam so the edges can be folded in on themselves. There is no lining, because there does not need to be.

At our partner atelier near Porto, a single Margaux coat passes through eleven pairs of hands and takes around forty-two hours to finish.

The result is a coat that is lighter than it looks, warmer than it should be, and, we hope, the one you will still be wearing in ten years.
