From the brand: We were inspired by the famed 19th century nomadic poet Raftery and his epic poem
Seanchas na Sceiche
in which he berates a bush for failing him in his search for shelter. His clothes were often remarked upon, particularly
Cóta Raiftearaí
, so in tribute, we designed a beautiful soft Donegal cashmere and merino long coat which has become an Inis Meáin signature piece in our Men's Collection. Now we have designed a variation with more feminine styling, including a slightly shorter length and a wider collar. Also known as
Cóta Máire Ní Eidhin
, after Raftery's muse, a famously beautiful lady from Gort, in Co. Galway. This iconic coat is a perfect combination of substance and sophistication, giving infinite options to achieve a unique multilayered and stylish knit-look. Crafted with super-premium Cashmere and Merino yarn from Italian heritage producer, Filati Biagioli Modesto, made to the highest European environmental standards using only organic dyes.
Available in classic Black and in Charcoal Fleck, a versatile dark grey elevated with warm orange and snowy white highlights. Designed, made and hand-finished in our Aran Islands workshop.
