This October, British outerwear icon Gloverall — the brand behind the original duffle coat — is bringing its heritage style to one of London’s most atmospheric shopping destinations: Coal Drops Yard.
Running from Tuesday 28 October to Sunday 2 November, the temporary store will showcase a curated mix of Gloverall’s signature pieces at special reduced prices, along with an exclusive edit from its surplus collection. Expect past-season favourites, one-off exclusives, and specially made designs, all available at rare discounts.
“This isn’t just another pop-up,” explains Mat Bickley, Head of Marketing & Design at Gloverall. “It’s a chance to explore our surplus collection in person, to handle pieces that tell the story of seasons past, and to take home unique designs at exceptional value. Alongside these, you’ll find much-loved classics from our signature collection — offered here at a lower price than online.”
The setting is just as significant as the collection. Once a Victorian coal depot, Coal Drops Yard now serves as a design-led shopping hub where historic brick arches meet modern style. It’s a fitting backdrop for Gloverall’s own balance of tradition and innovation.
Founded in the 1950s, Gloverall has become synonymous with the duffle coat — a staple of British outerwear recognised worldwide. Each piece carries the brand’s reputation for durability, craft, and timeless appeal, making it a go-to for those who value both heritage and style.
For London shoppers, this pop-up offers a rare opportunity: to shop iconic outerwear and exclusive archive designs in person, with prices you won’t find online.
