We sell online and we like it that way. By avoiding the mark up, that is incurred by passing on goods to be handed over by someone else, we are able to offer premium quality British made clothing at a more affordable price. You won’t find HebTroCo products on the high street. Even though we […]
Home From Home starring Johnny Vegas is on BBC1 this Friday at 9.30pm. It’s directed by Paul Murphy pictured at the front looking great in his HebTroCo Governor Jacket. The rest of the crew, all from Hebden Bridge, are pictured standing on the original 500 year old bridge that gives the town its name. From […]
Let’s get this straight. A pie has pastry at the bottom, round the sides and on the top. It doesn’t just have pastry on the top. It might look like a pie from the outside but it’s not a proper pie. We’re not being pedantic, this is an issue of quality. The pie tastes better […]
In our modern times life can be crushingly easy. We often have to take the stupid route to test ourselves, take some risks and find some excitement. Riding old motorcycles is on the surface a glamorous practice. It’s also a road full of breakdowns and disappointment. When they run right though, out there on the […]
You don’t want to make a big man angry. We used to only offer one cut of trouser, the tapered leg 177. Lots of people loved them and continue to do so. However some gents with big calf muscles and mighty ankles couldn’t get the trousers on. If they were wearing boots, there just wasn’t enough room […]
We’d seen this guy hanging around the Business Park where the HebTroCo unit is situated. He was usually riding round on a bicycle like a kid, always in shorts. After asking around it turned out that he’s a Para Olympic cyclist. On Twitter his name is @stevebatembe but we didn’t think he was African and […]
We don’t play the fashion “seasons” game. We do stylish clothing that’s made to last, rather than fashion that’s designed to be worn then discarded. You should expect to get years of wear out of something that you buy from us. Some people call this ‘Slow Fashion’. It’s just what we do. Clothes should be […]
HebTroCo started as an idea in the pub to make trousers. We didn’t only have one idea in the pub though. In the beginning we wanted to make lots of things. The following items were discussed at length and even taken to the sample stage: shoes, hats, underpants, women’s trousers, wallets, beer, nineteenth century railway […]
After two years in development, we’re proud to finally have our lighter “office weight” Works 177 on our shelves and shipping to customers. Launched at the end of January, these are the trousers we’ve been working on since the company launched, to sit alongside our flagship 177 Moleskins. Featuring a British woven cotton twill fabric, […]
“You won’t sell any!” Said my mum when she first heard about what has now become HebTroCo. “Moleskin trousers are only £40 in Marks & Spencer” she continued, pouring scorn on my latest harebrained scheme to keep the grandchildren in the conditions to which they haven’t become accustomed. Of course it wasn’t the first time […]
