Porter and Harding was born after the Second World War to make sportswear thanks to the love for hunting, target shooting and fishing of the two founders: John Porter and Bill Harding The fabrics, and in particular the Thornproof and Hartwist ranges, are made with Cheviot sheep’s wool, yarns woven together for color and strength, renowned for their durability. Their fabrics have one of the densest textures that can be found, specially made by the couple to protect against the elements, thistles and thorns.
