For Spring/Summer 2026, heritage British outerwear label Gloverall refocuses its design lens on lightness, adaptability and everyday ease. Known globally for its iconic duffle coats and refined outerwear craftsmanship, the brand’s latest collection signals a confident evolution, one that embraces modern functionality without losing sight of its timeless design DNA.
The SS26 collection brings together a carefully curated selection of lightweight outerwear and transitional layers designed for life under changeable skies. It’s a season that acknowledges the unpredictability of British weather and modern lifestyles, where movement, versatility and performance are essential. Technical fabrics meet familiar silhouettes, resulting in a collection that feels contemporary yet reassuringly classic.
Leading the line-up are three standout pieces: the Sharpe Technical Hooded Parka, the Wainwright Packable Jacket and the Silas Dufflewool Liner Jacket. Each offers a distinct approach to transitional dressing, combining practical innovation with Gloverall’s signature attention to detail.
Performance Meets Heritage Design
At the forefront of the collection is the Men’s Sharpe Technical Hooded Parka, a refined update on a menswear essential. Designed for daily wear across unpredictable climates, this contemporary parka is crafted from durable showerproof fabric that provides reliable protection without compromising on breathability or comfort.
The silhouette balances technical performance with streamlined tailoring. An ergonomic hood ensures practical coverage, while an adjustable waist allows wearers to personalise the fit for comfort and ease of movement. It’s a versatile outer layer that works equally well over tailoring during the week or paired with denim and knitwear at the weekend.
Available in bold Red alongside classic Navy and Black, the Sharpe Parka introduces confident colour into functional outerwear. It’s a modern essential that captures the spirit of SS26, adaptable, refined and ready for wherever the day leads.
Built for Movement and Modern Lifestyles
For those constantly on the move, the Wainwright Packable Jacket answers the call for lightweight practicality. Designed with travel and everyday mobility in mind, this jacket offers a streamlined solution for transitional weather without adding unnecessary bulk.
Crafted from breathable showerproof fabric, the Wainwright delivers dependable protection while remaining light enough to carry anywhere. An ergonomic hood, adjustable waist and two-way zip provide flexibility and comfort, ensuring the jacket moves effortlessly with the wearer throughout the day.
Its defining feature, however, is its packability. The jacket folds neatly into its own internal bag, making it ideal for commuting, travel or spontaneous changes in weather. Whether heading across the city or further afield, it’s a reliable companion that reflects the increasingly mobile nature of modern wardrobes.
Available in Racing Green and Black, the Wainwright Packable Jacket delivers understated style with high-performance functionality—perfect for men seeking versatility without sacrificing design.
Lightweight Warmth with Iconic Character
Completing the SS26 highlights is the Men’s Silas Dufflewool Liner Jacket, a piece that bridges heritage and innovation. Drawing inspiration from classic M65 military liners, the Silas introduces Gloverall’s signature Dufflewool insulation to provide warmth without unnecessary weight.
Onion quilting enhances both texture and insulation, while functional details including side pockets and a two-way zip reinforce its practical appeal. Designed to function as either a layering piece beneath outerwear or a standalone jacket during milder days, the Silas delivers year-round versatility.
Available in Racing Green and Navy, it brings subtle colour and refined texture into everyday dressing. It’s a perfect example of how Gloverall continues to reinterpret traditional references for the modern wardrobe.
A Season of Adaptable Style
With the SS26 collection, Gloverall demonstrates that heritage brands can evolve without losing their identity. By focusing on lightweight construction, adaptable functionality and thoughtful detailing, the brand delivers outerwear that feels perfectly suited to contemporary living.
From the technical precision of the Sharpe Parka to the packable convenience of the Wainwright and the heritage warmth of the Silas liner, each piece reflects a commitment to quality and versatility. It’s outerwear designed not just for the season ahead, but for the rhythms of modern life, where style, practicality and performance must coexist effortlessly.
Gloverall’s Spring/Summer 2026 offering proves that timeless craftsmanship and forward-thinking design remain a powerful combination, ensuring the brand continues to lead the conversation in modern British outerwear.
