Mountain shirt

McNair’s heavyweight merino shirts might be made in Yorkshire but they’re meant for the mountains. These heavyweight merino numbers from the Yorkshire-based clothing company are comparable with heavyweight fleeces, just a lot more stylish. Established in 2013 by Richard Hamshire, Natalie Stapleton and Neil McNair (a professional snowboarder), every McNair shirt is weaved, milled, raised and steamed within a 10-mile radius of Huddersfield – a city that’s to wool, what Northampton is to shoes.

Urban orienteering

Equally at home on Ben Nevis as on Bond Street, these handmade, full-grain leather hiking boots from Brunello Cucinelli represent a sartorial investment for life – and one that will only get better with age. Treads made of TPU rubber – a super resilient plastic-rubber composite – ensure that your knees will give out before the boots do. Robust rubber-lug soles, plush linings and padded felt collars mean you won’t be reaching for the blister pack, while a combination of rich brown leather, copper ringlets and contrasting red laces are sure to appeal to orienteering aesthetes.
