MUSTO CLOTHING

Musto outdoor clothing heritage all began through Keith Musto’s passion for sailing. Keith like all true sportsmen was totally passionate about his chosen sport which happened to be sailing.  He went on to win major awards including European and Olympic silver medal in Tokyo .

One strong core belief which he had that still runs through the veins of the Musto brand today is, quality outdoor clothing does help performance out in the field.  Keith Musto designed the first viable Two-Piece Drysuit in 1983.  After this point the 3 layered system, underwear, middlewear and outerwear for keeping dry and warm came to the fore.

For extreme weather there is nothing like the open sea in a raging gale to test the quality of clothing.  If clothing works in these conditions a stroll around the countryside is a mere walk in the park!

Ellen MacArthur has been wearing Musto clothing on all her fantastic sailing exploits and William Fox-Pitt is another well known name that was wearing the new Musto equestrian range when he won Team silver at the Athens Olympics.

Nigel Musto is a keen shot so you can easily see why shooting clothing has become such a strong range for Musto with more and more products being added to the range all the time.  The one great thing about shooting clothing is the diverse range it has to cover everything from the dog handler to the clay shooter.  Therefore many of the products can be worn as a simple waterproof coat for dog walking or for watching the rugby!

Musto are committed to good customer service and with the quality of the Musto branding it’s no wonder this company is going from strength to strength.

"you don’t have to be wet through to enjoy your sport!"

Musto are proud of their attention to detail in the design and development of their products.

Musto Technical Tweed has been created using a single twist incorporating nylon to give a strong, robust and durable lightweight Tweed which is then Teflon coated to give waterproof qualities.  It features an integrated membrane which is waterproof and breathable.  All buttons and studs are covered by cloth to make them non-marking to guns.

DWR (Durable Water Resilient) Teflon Coating is used by Musto to increase water resistency and for which dry cleaning is recommended.

Polartec is renowned as the best fabric for its keeping you warm properties for the weight of the fabric.  The Polartec fabric has been well cut to give a jacket, gilet and smock all with DWR finish to the outer giving excellent water repellence.  These can be combined as a layered protection or on their own.
