After busy careers and city to city travels we take a moment to slow down and centre ourselves for the next chapter. This chapter is a rural way of life, escaping the city and exploring the countryside, slowing down and being curious about the smallest of details. Local sourcing and craftsmanship are integral to this brand’s values. How things are made, where they are made and who is making them become important questions to discover. Our family and work values converge with an appreciation for quality, durable goods that enhance our chosen lifestyle.
Provenance is equally important and we welcome you to a new, modern lifestyle located in Stirlingshire, the heart of Scotland. Fellow appreciators are invited to our rural-life club. Take a moment and ground yourself in the finer details.
Welcome to Borthwick & Forrest - Scottish made.
ABOUT THE FIRST SEASON’S COLLECTION
The brand launches with a menswear and womenswear lifestyle collection starting with the Dunmore Barn coat - produced in Scotland using premium sanded twill with corduroy trims. Wear it with the Dundee sourced waxed cotton Kirkmill Liner vest depending on the temperature outside. Good all year round classic styles, proudly Made in Scotland.
Quilted styles will feature early into the new year as seasonal weather changes are addressed. The Strathview Quilted vest provides that extra layer of warmth. Natural wool accessories add colour to the collection sourced from the finest Scottish mills. The bag collection in premium waxed cotton kicks off the season with the Balgair Weekender bag, perfect for weekend getaways. Storytelling graphics will feature throughout the season with a nod to our ‘rural life club’ direction with the entire collection portraying a truly aspirational lifestyle. The collection is 100% made on UK shores and it is that craftsmanship we will share to our community of Global Scots and rural lifestyle appreciators.
We look forward to getting to know our customers... very well.
