DAVIS store, Ketchum, Idaho.








It's with great pleasure that I'd like to take a minute to say a big thank you to our newest stockist; DAVIS in Ketchum, Idaho. The wonderful Martin and Kevin at DAVIS have been only too kind to send through a few pictures from the store and the surrounding peaks covered in Winter snow and all at studio Raeburn think it looks fantastic; I only hope that I have time to visit one day soon. We're incredibly glad to see our Autumn/Winter Parallel Coat, Pop-Out Parka and Wool Bomber taking pride of place in the store.

Certainly a different way to spend your Birthday. Put simply, the challenge was to climb the highest mountains in Scotland, England and Wales within 24 hours including travel time. So, myself and 12 wonderful team mates boarded a minibus in London and headed to the North. Of course I took the opportunity to kit out the team in florescent Christopher Raeburn hoodies and the next step was to simply get on with it. Ben Nevis treated us well on the way up but we we're soon into heavy cloud and then very heavy rain on the descent; all good fun. Worse was to come on Scarfell Pike in England, starting before 4.00am and in pitch darkness and torrential rain it was only excellent map reading and some steep climbs that took us to the top. By the time we got to Snowdon in Wales we had four hours to get up and down; I'm proud to say that the team came in with 40 minutes to spare.
