Radge Scarf

 

The archetypal Radge is wild, unpredictable, and violent. A man you do not want to spill a pint on.

As well as being Radge, you can also go Radge: a prolific, sustained bout of swearing or a violent outburst ought to do it.

It’s also used as a casual term of endearment, predominantly in the east coast (“come here, ya wee radge.”). A seemingly improbable event can also be described as being “radge”.

A word that dates back to the late 19th century, radge is probably a morphing of “rage”.  It was adapted from radger, a seemingly extinct term for an uncontrollable creature.

Archive fabric ties

At our facility in Scotland one of their skills is the production of hand made Ties. 6876 has never produced ties so we decided to take a unique approach and use archive cloths.

Fabrics that have been utilised are Hainsworth Military wool barathea, graphic modernist cotton interpretations of tartans and to follow this Autumn a Japanese woven interpretation of British Army denim mixed with wool.

Messages Bag

“The Messages or going to get the messages”

Scottish phrase meaning to go and buy Groceries 

6876 Tote bag with unique construction including outside pocket.

This style has been made in Scotland using Hainsworth Fabric from the company archive.

The quality is a British Army wool Barathea; comprising of a worsted weave which is a process differing to a highly woollen produced fabric.

Barathea is versatile, with elegant drape and exceptional handle. Due to its coarse texture, the fabric has natural recovery abilities and quickly returns back to its natural shape.
