British made, British heritage, built to last.
This isn't about fast fashion. It's a return to quality, to a time when clothes were built well, not worn a handful of times and discarded. The Cairn Overshirt stands as a testament to that legacy.
On the same day I left my full-time job, the first Cairn Overshirts arrived. Built the way gear should be. Cut from Halley Stevensons' waxed cotton, trusted by explorers since 1864. This is more than an overshirt, it's a piece of Bear&Wolf history.
Numbered and scarce by design, each one is cut and sewn in Britain, finished with corozo buttons made in the Cotswolds, and made to last.
Every pre-order isn't just an order; it's an investment in the family of Bear&Wolf.
Features
↟ British Made: Cut and sewn in the UK using Halley Stevensons waxed cotton, the Dundee mill that's been weatherproofing explorers since 1864.
↟ Six Pockets: Thoughtfully placed for utility, including dual chest pockets and deep side pockets.
↟ Reinforced Strength: Bar-tack stitching at stress points adds durability where it matters most.
↟ Natural Buttons: Finished with corozo buttons from the Cotswolds, each subtly unique.
↟ Limited Batch: Numbered as part of Batch No.001.
Care Advice
Waxed cotton only gets better with age. Softening, moulding to you and breaking in like a second skin.
↟ Do not machine wash: Waxed cotton should never go in the washing machine or dry cleaner.
↟ Spot clean only: With cold water and a sponge. Avoid soap and detergent.
↟ Reproof as needed: This will keep your overshirt weather resistant for years.
↟ Air dry: Never on a radiator or tumble dryer.
Look after it, and it'll outlast you.
Hands On From the Start
We’ve been there every step of the way. Visiting our makers, checking every detail by hand. The Cairn Overshirt hasn’t just been designed, it’s been obsessed over.
RUGGED BY DESIGN
Waxed cotton that ages with you. Reinforced stitching, six pockets, and British craft in every detail.
MADE TO LAYER
AGES WITH YOU
Waxed cotton softens, creases, and develops a patina unique to its owner. No two Cairn overshirts will ever age the same.
POCKETS WITH PURPOSE
PART OF THE STORY
Batch No.001 isn't just another overshirt. It's the first chapter of Bear&Wolf. Years from now, you'll own the piece that started it all.
Faqs
PRODUCT
Where is it made?
The Cairn Overshirt is built entirely in Britain. Waxed cotton from Halley Stevensons in Dundee, corozo buttons from the Cotswolds, labels from Plymouth, all cut and sewn here in the UK.
What size shall I get?
True to size. If you’re between sizes or want more room for layering, we recommend sizing up.
Is it waterproof?
Waxed cotton is water-resistant, not waterproof. It'll keep you dry in a shower or out in the wind, but it's not a plastic raincoat, and that's the point.
How do I care for it?
Never machine wash. Brush off dirt, wipe clean with a damp cloth, and re-wax when the fabric starts to dry. Treat it right and it’ll age beautifully, moulding to you over the years.
