Where Heritage Finds New Character
There is something wonderfully unpredictable about cloth with character.
It catches the light differently with every movement. Flecks of colour appear where you didn’t notice them before. Texture shifts beneath the hand, revealing layers that only time and craftsmanship can create. This is the spirit that defines the Kynoch of Scotland Autumn/Winter 2027/28 collection.
Inspired by the enduring beauty of Scottish landscapes and the rich tradition of Donegal-inspired weaving, the collection celebrates fabrics that feel authentic, expressive and full of life. Rather than striving for perfection, it embraces the charm found in natural irregularity—where colour, texture and weave combine to create cloth with unmistakable personality.
At the heart of the season is a new heavyweight Donegal coating collection. Woven using 100% wool Donegal yarns from Ireland alongside soft pure new wool, these substantial coatings showcase bold herringbones enriched with distinctive multi-coloured flecks. The result is cloth that feels deeply rooted in tradition while offering a vibrant, contemporary character, with colourways ranging from understated natural tones to brighter seasonal shades.
Complementing these statement coatings, Glenesk introduces refreshed herringbones and refined checks in a luxurious wool and cashmere blend. Familiar designs are reimagined through contemporary colour combinations, offering a fresh perspective while retaining the timeless appeal that has long defined the collection.
The RWS-certified Milled Lambswool qualities continue the story with softly milled Glenchecks, Club Checks and subtle ombré effects. A gentle finish enhances both warmth and handle, while layered patterns and thoughtful use of colour create fabrics that feel relaxed, tactile and full of depth.
Throughout the collection, texture remains the defining feature. Every weave reveals something new, whether through a fleck of colour, a softened pattern or the way the cloth responds to changing light. The Autumn/Winter 2027/28 collection captures the essence of Kynoch of Scotland—heritage reimagined through exceptional craftsmanship, expressive texture and a quietly whimsical approach to timeless cloth.
