The Muddy Meadow Story

British outdoor clothing & gear inspired by nature

We started Muddy Meadow because our family always believed the outdoors feels better when you’re properly equipped to enjoy it. After moving from Bath to the Chew Valley—and carrying with me the rugged, practical mindset we grew up with outdoors in New Zealand— we wanted to create clothing and gear that could handle real weather and all sorts of adventures. So as a family we took the plunge and started our own brand.

Childhoods were spent on dairy farms, exploring the bush in gumboots, and those early experiences shaped everything I make today. Now we live in the British countryside on a 14th‑century property with our two Labradors and our faithful Land Rover Defender. The meadow outside my home is where I walk, think, and dream up what comes next for Muddy Meadow.

Our mission: outdoor gear that works with the weather

At Muddy Meadow, we’ve always believed in working with the seasons, not fighting against them. That’s why we focus on creating robust, functional outdoor clothing and accessories that are genuinely built to last. Whether you’re out hiking, walking the dog, gardening, or wandering down a muddy trail, everything we design is made to handle the elements and keep you comfortable along the way.

Why choose Muddy Meadow?

Every piece we make is designed for real life in the countryside — not just to look the part. Our fleeces are built with details that make a genuine difference on wear — considered fits, adjustable warmth, and fabric that works as hard as you do. Our bags and accessories are made to take a battering: waterproof, easy to clean, and built to outlast a season of muddy boots and wet gear.

  • Durability — Tough, hardworking materials that stand up to mud, rain, and everyday wear

  • Functionality — Thoughtful details that make outdoor life easier and more enjoyable

  • British Craftsmanship — Proudly designed and made here in Great Britain, working closely with British factories
