I’m in no way athletically inclined Stitch Experiment 626 Lilo & Stitch T-shirt (something my P.E. teacher will still back up to this day), but now I can finally feel part of the team as sporting stripes—the sort seen in rugby, cricket and other ball sports (I assume)—ran throughout the collections. All of fashion will agree that Dries Van Noten did it best by way of lounge pants and minidresses, whilst Victoria Beckham took the knitted approach with a sweater. A pre-kick-off moment for Gucci’s new Jackie bag offering, too, which collectors will be batting one another out of the way to get their hands on. “Across the board, brands are retiring streamlined stripes for something a little more playful,” says Munro. “Tapping into the sporty side of the print, the colourful trend is a refreshing retort to the past season’s obsession with a quieter palette. Styling well with easy denim and basic tees, these wearable stripes are set to transcend the runways in 2024.”. “Casual daywear has a preppy new mood as designers reimagined the classic polo and rugby shirts,” confirms Wiggins. “Our edit for S/S 24 has grown by 48% vs. last year and offers a variety of options, from Sacai’s pleated polo dress to Dries Van Noten’s colourful, oversized rugby shirts. For a modern take, style with sequins, as seen at 16Arlington.”

The collection includes denim, Stitch Experiment 626 Lilo & Stitch T-shirt knitwear, hoodies, sweatshirts, shirts, jackets, body warmers, trousers, outerwear, footwear and accessories. There is a range of four heavyweight ‘Big Jumpers’ available in navy, burnt orange, salt & pepper and red, each made from 100% British wool sourced from seven farms in Yorkshire. For lovers of tradition there’s a lighter Guernsey style fisherman jumper in navy or willow green, spun near Bradford using wool from two breeds of sheep in the Yorkshire Dales. A cardigan in 100% superfine lambswool comes in porcupine brown and Derby grey, and has been knitted in Aberdeenshire. Denim is a huge part of the business, it’s all produced at a high quality and is very popular with the HebTroCo customer. The range is made with selvedge denim from the Candiani Mill near Milan, one of the world’s most sustainable denim mills. There are jeans in black and indigo, available in various fits (but never too skinny! Phew) and two jackets in double black and indigo. The jackets and a selection of the jeans are in GOTS approved 100% organic (BCI) cotton, created using a micro-plastics free dye process, solar power and water recycling. For outerwear, the hardiest piece in the collection is a waterproof utility coat, based on an SAS zip-up smock jacket pattern, the outer shell is 50% organic cotton and 50% recycled polyester. Its numerous pockets and practicalities means it serves well on the hill and for tactical trips to the pub in all conditions. Warmer weather pieces include 100% cotton hoodies and zip up hoodies which are made in Manchester. There are two body warmers made with fabric from the Olmetex Mill in Italy and padded with British HD wool; a natural, high performing active insulation that doesn’t rely on plastics and manmade fibres. For summer months, and for layering up, there are t-shirts in yellow, botanical green, grey, black and white. A forest green overshirt is made with luxuriously soft and hard wearing corduroy from the best German mill – the same piece also comes in light sand moleskin. The socks are produced using Scottish Merino wool or cotton, and are all made in Scotland, whilst a range of workwear boots are constructed using processes that go back to the 19th century. One of the biggest selling products has been the woollen tweed blanket cape which can either be used as a blanket, throw or worn poncho style over the head and shoulders. Other eco initiatives include all items being shipped to the Post Office for delivery by electric cargo bike. HebTroCo also donates to Curlew Action; a charity set up to prevent the extinction of curlews, an endangered bird that inhabits the moors around Yorkshire. As Hebden Bridge is prone to flooding, the founders also decided to support a local Natural Flood Management Charity called Slow The Flow. Harnessing the power of personality and humour (HebTroCo has it in bucketloads) is the brand web and social media content, including the Don’t Be A Dick tagline. An element of this sees the founders acting out some of the most obnoxious messages trolls have kindly shared with them over their social channels. This unique sense of self-deprecation and fun is a big part of the success of the brand, the engaging content is something its followers react to in a big way.
