There is a coat you have been putting off buying. You tell yourself you will find it next season. Next season comes and you are still wearing the one that is almost right.

Herno makes coats that end that particular conversation. Founded in Lesa on Lake Maggiore in 1948, they have spent seven decades mastering the engineering of outerwear: coats, jackets, gilets, and casual trousers built for the realities of the weather without conceding anything to aesthetics. Their range at Richard Gelding spans technical and traditional, from clean wool overcoats to performance jackets that will outlast several of the cheaper alternatives you have been cycling through.

The coat you have been putting off. Here it is.
