THE BALMORAL / CHAPTER I
Before it was a coat, it was a fleece.
The Balmoral begins with the British Romney. A native breed whose strong, lustrous wool lends itself beautifully to structured cloth. Chosen for the warmth, substance and character that make this coat what it is.
THE BALMORAL / CHAPTER II
A coat that gives something back.
The value of British wool begins long before it reaches a mill. It begins with the farmers who tend their flocks through every season.
Through our partnership with British Wool, CLÒ FOLD pays an additional 25p per kilogram to participating wool growers. It's our way of making sure the people at the beginning of the story aren't forgotten at the end.
