Our factory
All our products are made in Cheshire, UK at our Stalybridge factory. These pictures show the main stages in the making our down sleeping bags, clothing and accessories.

A pattern is marked out on the cutting table. |
The marked fabric is cut. |
Our 'Lorch' down testing machine enables us to assess the quality of our down to a very high degree of accuracy. |
 |
 |
 |
Once cut, the patterns are taken to the sewing area for initial assembly. |
Once partly sewn, down gear is filled in our sealed down room. |
Down gets everywhere, so thorough cleaning is important, with a compressed air hose. |
 |
 |
 |
Once filled with down, the sleeping bag or jacket is returned to the sewing area for final assembly. |
Products are checked before being packaged for dispatch. |
Size really does matter. |
