Caban Melton Wool Coat
The Caban Coat has been inspired by the timeless design of peacoats. Originally, peacoats were worn by the Navy to keep them warm despite the harsh winds, rain and cold temperatures at sea. The style and fit have been modernised since its naval origins, but its functionality remains the same.
FitThe Caban Coat is a mid-thigh length coat, with a straight silhouette and a short collar. The coat can be fully fastened to protect against the cold or worn with the upper buttons undone, to create lapels.

Fabric
Melton wool is a popular cloth for outerwear due to its robust handle and rich texture. Most famously used by the Royal Navy to produce the iconic peacoat, a hardwearing coat designed to keep sailors warm and dry. Wool is first woven into a durable twill weave before being put through a process called ‘napping’ where the fibres of the cloth are raised, creating a fuzzy surface. This surface is then sheared to give Melton wool its characteristic smooth and dense finish.
