SEH Kelly.

As soon as we caught sight of this brand we knew we had to interview them. Excellent quality, British made garments. What could possibly be better? They are a small, independent team based in London. Although, there are Northern influences on their garms. Some of the production process takes place within the mills of West Yorkshire. According to their website "Every step of the mohair’s transformation into luxury cloth — its dyeing, blending, weaving, and finishing — are undertaken under the one 1800s-built roof." That roof is a West Yorkshire one, and to us that's champion. The production and manufacturing process doesn't all take place in West Yorkshire though. The buttons for example, they are made in the Midlands and the shirt-maker based in Kent. We love the fact that we are able to trace where each and every item they do was made. You can read more about them in issue three, where we have an interview with the nice people from the company. Below are some pictures of the things they make and the places they are made:
The Pale-blue cotton pinpoint raglan shirt. Part of the production for this beauty takes place in Cumbria.

The shirt above is probably one of our favourite pieces by SEH Kelly, but to be quite honest the whole collection is pretty special. Take a closer look at www.sehkelly.com and remember we have an excellent interview with them in issue three.
