Dugdale Bros & Co

Our 124 year family-owned history means that we can guarantee authenticity. In 1896, Henry Percy and Frederick Herbert Dugdale established their cloth merchants business in Huddersfield, the centre of Britain’s fine worsted industry. Dugdale remained in the family for two generations, through prosperous times and perilous war years until it was later acquired by Keith Charnock and now chairman Rob Charnock. We are painstaking in our processes, to make cloth needle ready. Our cloth is designed to be a pleasure to work with and a joy to wear. We are from Yorkshire, and our cloths reflect our personality, in weight, durability and character.

ENGLISH & TOWN CLASSICS

This bunch is the winter-weight version of our Royal Classics range and has been in continual production since its launch in 1953. Woven from superfine Australian merino wool, a choice of crushed, semi-milled or full-milled finishing provides further distinction to the warmth and fullness of this premium-grade cloth.

The English Classics’ fine worsted fabrics could not be any more English. We have been producing this cloth for over 50 years and the range still remains one of our most popular. A slight re-working of our finishing routines has allowed us to produce a smoother handle to the cloth without compromising its fullness. A robust cloth and a design classic. Our Town Classics is a full milled version of the above, affording warmth and density. A cloth with real integrity and inspired by our heritage.
