Winter is a season that offers you maximum opportunities to experiment with your style. And the latest Duck and Cover Jumpers’ collection allows you to do just that. The latest addition of this brand includes a line of designer jumpers that will ensure you spend your winters in style.
This brand has always offered sense of uniqueness in every garment they manufacture. Starting from dealing with t-shirts initially, they soon went on to cover other domains of menswear and later even the women’s clothing. Their latest addition is the range of jumpers was recently put into the market. This range of jumpers is high on style that offers you that perfectly fashionable look for the winters. The colours are mostly basic and traditional ones like blacks, whites and grey feature often. But you can also find some deviations from the traditional here in terms of choice of design and especially colours. With the likes of pinks and blues, this line of Duck and Cover jumpers makes for a style statement that you might be looking for this winter.
You can choose from a range of jumpers with v-necks and knitted patterns that offer the classic look which never goes out of fashion. For the more fashionable sorts, there is a wider choice like the D&C Kirby jumpers in colours like grey and black with that warm look, snug fit and fashion quotient. There are others too like the D&C shay hoodie or the D&C Ryleigh jumper, both again in shades of black and grey but with a different style. The traditional necklines are just as much in with this Duck and Cover jumper line as are the trendy ones which offer you a chance to experiment with your fashion statement. Besides the conventional jumpers, there are also the other styles that might attract your eye which include likes of D&C zip through jumpers or the D&C Tristian knit and nylon jumpers. Black hoodies, striped jumpers, crew neckline jumpers in basic colours- all make an appearance in this collection. So do the vest pockets which can be found in some of the designs in this Duck and Cover jumpers line. Cotton high necks in colours like white and grey also happen to be a major attraction of this collection. You can also find jumpers in red, blue, brown- all the colours you need to make the winters warm enough for you. Neck designs, snug fits, buttons, textures and slings- these and many more such features can be found in this one of its type collection that ensures you winters remain high on style quotient all along.

Duck and cover jackets are probably my favourite item of clothing from the collection, especially the duffer coats. It’s a comfy coat that even has quilted checked lining and just perfect for an outdoor kind of guy. It really is a must have item, every guy will be envious. These coats are an investment, and can last you a few winters. Made of wool, so you’ll be tucked up like a kipper. However, they aren’t made for the Antarctic, they are more of a style statement, than something you just chuck on when its cold.
Prices range from a starting price of £59 right up to £143; in grey, black or checked. So you just can’t go wrong, these are High Street prices for top quality design and materials by Duck and Cover. It’s definitely an item on my boyfriends Christmas list, put it that way. You can wear these jackets with absolutely anything, but don’t wear too much pattern with the checked jackets or you’ll look like you’ve got dressed in the dark. But whatever floats your vote, I guess.
Masculine and military trends are all over this seasons collections, so accessorise with pieces from these trends if you don’t want to go the whole hog. Seriously though, what are you waiting for? I know how indecisive you sometimes are, but with these jackets, they really are being laid out on a plate for you. Grab yours from the Duck and Cover Jackets collection now, before we are out of stock.

As a fashion writer, I spend hours each week writing about different fashion items from designer jeans to cosy hoodies, funky belts to stylish footwear. This week when I got asked to write about a t-shirt of my choice that conveys high-end styling, one brand immediately came to mind – Duck and Cover clothing.
Established in 1996, Duck and Cover clothing took the fashion industry by storm. The main reason for this is that their fashion philosophy was fresh and not something commonly seen within the fashion arena. Their aim was (and still is) to draw inspiration from conventional styling but give items a funky new twist to make them different from other items currently on the market.
Duck and Cover clothing is synonymous with high-end styling so I’d like to take this opportunity to introduce the Thor Duck and Cover t-shirt. This t-shirt is a cross between a long sleeve t-shirt and a jumper in its styling. Available in slate grey or black, this t-shirt oozes military styling.
The Thor t-shirt features ribbed detailing to give it an air of horizontal pin-stripe, a formal vibe on an otherwise casual t-shirt. To the left shoulder is a traditionally styled epaulet featuring loops and button detailing whilst to the right shoulder is a more modern off-centre epaulet with hole punched and metal button detailing. The military styling is further carried through this style with a flap top, button fastening pocket to the upper left arm and a panel to the upper left chest. In addition to these there is a button fastening panel to the side of the t-shirt in-line with the waist.
This piece from Duck and Cover t shirts features a subtle logo to the chest as well as a branded panel to the arm – both of which reinforce the designer brand behind this quirky style. The final style element of this t-shirt is the longer length hem. Designed to finish just below the hips, it ensures your low back is kept warm throughout the winter. This is a practical design element that doesn’t impact on the overall style of the t-shirt.

They produce a range of colours and designs to suit you. Prices start from £19 to £34, depending on how much you are willing to pay for the price of fashion.
You can be who you want to be in Duck and Cover attire, all you’ll want to do is show off your new winter wardrobe. There are smart grey and black plain t-shirts, if your wanting something a bit more smart than casual. This year the masculine fashion look is basic macho. Not only will you be wearing the latest Duck and Cover fashion, but no doubt your girlfriend will be stealing your t-shirt to wear for bed. But don’t you dare let her, these aren’t any ordinary t-shirts.
You’ll be prepared for anything life throws at you in these beauties. Not only that but Christmas is just around the corner and instead of your mum and Nan buying you something you don’t want and will probably have to give to a charity shop, drop them hints about Duck and Cover. You’ll be wearing something they bought and you like, that way everyone wins.
Always be rebellious and don’t ever let me catch you Ducking and Covering.
In the last week, the weather has taken a dramatic turn for the worse. Almost unheard of in November, several places throughout the United Kingdom have seen snow fall and we’re not just talking about remote areas of Scotland here. Even Cornwall, renowned for its warm weather has seen a flutter of snow. For those that hadn’t already done so, winter clothing is being bought en-mass.
One designer brand with their finger on the pulse this season is Duck and Cover. Amongst their winter clothing range are a host of hoodies, jumpers and jackets which are sure to keep you warm this winter. Duck and Cover are renowned for their quirky clothing collections. The brand draws inspiration from a wide range of eras and styles to create unusual clothing which is both practical and ultra stylish.
One of the Duck and Cover jumpers which is set to be very popular this season is the Langley jumper. This jumper has been designed to add a modern, urban twist to smart styling. It is available in two contemporary colours for the current season – grey and navy blue. Both of these colours are very versatile and can be teamed with virtually anything in your wardrobe.
The Langley Duck and Cover jumper has a high round neck line which creates an optical illusion to widen the chest, making you look broader than you are. A low hemline at the waist makes this jumper ideal to wear with low slung jeans without exposing flesh to the cold air whilst again increasing your perceived chest size.
Single button detailing to the collar combined with faux pocket detailing and urban font branding to the upper left arm give this jumper a military vibe. Ribbed detailing to the neck and shoulders provides an extra texture to the jumper whilst a subtle Duck and Cover logo to the chest conveys the designer aspect of the garment.
The ideal way to wear Duck and Cover jumpers such as this is to team it with low key jeans. The jeans should be classically cut with very little detailing or embellishments. Wear with pumps for a funky laid-back look or smart shoes for a more formal look.
