That pleasant winter stroll can be a chilly, uncomfortable experience if you’re not properly equipped. That’s where Country Threads comes in
As the Chilterns countryside settles into winter mode, there’s nothing quite like wrapping up warm and heading out for a crisp, refreshing countryside walk. Whether you’re exploring Prestwood’s own scenic trails, enjoying a brisk hike away somewhere, or simply strolling down to the post office, having the right clothing makes all the difference. That’s where Country Threads comes in – our very own outdoor clothing shop, conveniently located opposite the café at Hildreth’s Garden Centre.
Fleeces and warm coats: Core Winter layers
A cosy fleece is the perfect mid-layer essential, offering warmth without bulk. Ideal for layering under waterproof jackets or wearing on milder days, our range of fleeces provide comfort, freedom of movement, and practicality. We’ve got a great selection as you make your way inside the shop, so you can’t miss them! For colder, windier days, a warm coat adds extra insulation and protection from frost. Whether you prefer something plain and practical or something bright and eye-catching, we have plenty of options!!
At Country Threads, we stock plenty of trusted countryside brands such as Hoggs of Fife, renowned for durable, classic country coats, and Hunter, celebrated for functional and stylish outerwear. We understand that many of our customers are after outdoor items that will stand the test of time, so premium quality is pretty important.
Waterproof Jackets: Stay dry no matter the weather
Winter walks can be unpredictable, which makes a waterproof jacket essential. Our selection includes highly breathable yet water-resistant jackets, designed to keep you dry during rain showers or snowy weather. Brands like Lighthouse offer reliable, lightweight waterproof jackets that combine functionality with countryside style, while Dryrobe provides innovative, oversized outer layers perfect for layering over your clothing after muddy walks or outdoor activities.
Walking Socks: Comfort from the ground up
No winter walk is complete without the right socks and boots! Thick, durable walking socks help keep your feet warm and dry, even on muddy or frosty trails. At Country Threads, we stock a fantastic range, including Sealskinz socks, which are waterproof and breathable – perfect for cold, wet conditions. Pair them with a pair of our sturdy walking boots, to ensure your feet stay comfortable and protected during longer hikes or muddy winter strolls.
We’ve also got a great selection of walking boots and wellies – including top brands like Hunter.
And the rest….!
These are just some of the great brands and products we’re stocked up on. There’s lots more! From cosy gloves, hats and scarves, to waterproof bags, jumpers, shirts and even accessories for dogs – we reckon we’ve got your cold weather wardrobe covered.
