# Ultra-Sophisticated Duffle Coats Blackstock & Weber Collaborates with Gloverall in Fw 2023 By Kalin Ned | Published 2023-11-03 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blackstock-weber1 References: [blackstockandweber](https://www.blackstockandweber.com/products/gloverall-for-b-w-wool-duffle) New York-based men's lifestyle brand, [Blackstock & Weber](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loafer-in-ivy), has partnered with iconic British coat makers Gloverall to create a limited capsule collection for the Fall/Winter 2023 season. The collection features a modern twist on Gloverall's classic duffle coat that exudes sophistication and class. The silhouette features fall-weight houndstooth fabric sourced from [Harris Tweed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pal-sporting-goods-2), a renowned wool mill. Blackstock & Weber's Founder and Creative Director, Chris Echevarria, is known for reimagining traditional menswear and this collaboration is a testimony to that. While B&W brings a contemporary twist and an eye-catching style, Gloverall—a brand famous for its duffle coats since 1951—maintains superb craftsmanship with its hand-produced quality standards in England. The use of Harris Tweed's houndstooth fabric further reflects premium English quality and timeless British style.
