Product Overview
The Brook Taverner Whipcord Coat is a sophisticated piece of outerwear designed for the professional who requires both protection from the elements and a sharp, authoritative silhouette. This raincoat is constructed from a premium wool blend, offering a substantial feel that bridges the gap between formal attire and functional workwear. With its single-breasted design and 3-button fly front, it provides a streamlined appearance that is as practical as it is polished, making it an essential addition to any corporate wardrobe.
Key Features
3-Button Fly Front: The concealed fastening creates a clean, minimalist look that prevents the buttons from snagging or distracting from the garment's sleek lines.
Raglan Sleeves: These sleeves are cut in one piece from the collar, providing a greater range of movement and ensuring the coat fits comfortably over a suit jacket.
Centre Vent: This design feature allows for ease of movement and prevents the coat from bunching when you are walking or seated.
Viscose Check Lining: The internal lining adds a touch of classic style while ensuring the garment is easy to put on and take off, reducing friction against your clothing.
Design & Performance
This coat is crafted from a medium-weight fabric composed of 55% polyester and 45% wool. This specific blend is chosen for its ability to combine the natural warmth and breathability of wool with the durability and crease-resistance of polyester. The result is a garment that maintains its structure throughout a busy working day. Despite its high wool content, this coat is ingeniously engineered to be machine washable, providing a rare combination of high-end aesthetics and everyday practicality.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Whipcord Coat is highly versatile when it comes to branding. For a truly professional appearance, we recommend embroidery for company logos or staff names. The dense weave of the wool blend provides a stable foundation for high-quality stitching, ensuring your brand is represented with clarity and prestige. If your branding requirements involve larger, bolder graphics, print is also an option. Our in-house team in Telford, established since 1976, handles all customisation to ensure your workwear meets our rigorous quality standards.
Use Cases
This garment is perfectly suited for professionals in corporate environments, security management, or hospitality. It is the ideal choice for front-of-house staff or executives who need to maintain a formal appearance while moving between sites or meeting clients outdoors. Its classic black colour ensures it remains versatile across various industries and uniform requirements.

Practical Advice
The raglan sleeve construction is specifically designed to accommodate layering. We suggest choosing your standard size, as the coat is cut with enough room to fit comfortably over a business suit or heavy knitwear. For reference, the centre back length for a size 40R is 102cm, providing generous coverage to protect your suit from the rain.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the performance and appearance of your Whipcord Coat is essential for long-term use. Because this garment is machine washable, you can easily maintain its cleanliness without the constant need for specialist cleaning services.
We advise following the wash instructions carefully; washing at the correct temperature will prevent the wool fibres from shrinking and ensure the polyester maintains its structural integrity. Avoid the use of bleach, as this will damage the fabric fibres and lead to premature wear or discolouration. To keep your custom embroidery looking its best and to prevent the fabric from losing its shape, air drying is recommended over mechanical tumble drying.
