HANCOCK
Lightweight quilted items perfect for travel, drives, and flights.
Introducing the new quilted series, "Travel Line."
From HANCOCK, the outerwear brand renowned for its traditional Scottish handmade rubberized coats, comes a new, lightweight quilted line this season: the "Travel Line."

Two collections to be released from early autumn.
HANCOCK is an outerwear brand established in 2011 by Daniel Tanco, who inherited the innovative technology of Thomas Hancock, the founder of the British rubber industry, and has been involved in vulcanized garments in the UK.
Using original materials like rubberized silk and cotton, produced using traditional methods at their own factory in Scotland, they have now established a new production line for machine-made quilted jackets. The rubberized coats are named the "Handmade Line," and the quilted jackets are the "Travel Line," forming two distinct collections.
Charming for versatile wear from early autumn through spring.
The new Travel Line series features a modern, simple quilted design. The distinctive "V Stitch" pattern symbolizes the initial letter of vulcanization, as deciphered by Thomas Hancock.
The quilted jackets are slim and lightweight, perfect as a casual jacket in autumn, or as an inner layer for a main coat in winter. They offer freedom in styling according to the climate and can be easily folded, making them ideal for travel, drives, and flights.
This season's color palette is inspired by "natural landscapes and colors," expressing the atmosphere of forests, wetlands, crisp winter mornings, and beautiful night skies through greens, beiges, and browns reminiscent of the Scottish landscape.
The inclusion of elastic knit at the collars, cuffs, and pockets is a thoughtful homage to Thomas Hancock, the inventor of rubber. Sizes available are 36, 38, and 40 for men, and 34 and 36 for women.
