For 25 years, Country Innovation has been designing, developing and making clothing for people who enjoy the great outdoors with a particular focus on style and practicality for wildlife watchers and photographers.
The brand use technical fabrics such as Ventile. For those that don't know, Ventile is a 100% cotton fabric, which was originally developed during World War II for fighter pilot suits due to its unique ability to repel wind and rain, yet at the same time being highly breathable and comfortable to wear. It is the world’s most effective, natural, all-weather cotton fabric that is grown sustainably, and is the best choice for durability, reliability and all-round performance. Being a natural fabric it becomes even softer and more comfortable as time goes by, making it a truly faithful friend.
