To everyone who served, and to those who gave their lives.
We remember you, and we are grateful.
Lest we forget.

I first met @nigel_cabourn more than 20 years ago.
I used his jacket in Antarctica.
Nigel was the best menswear designer this country never knew.
A household name in the far east, he was never celebrated in Britain as he should.
Perhaps it was that he remained robustly in Newcastle where he created his visions.
When I bought Buffalo, it was Nigel I sought advice.
He loved the brand and had collected vintage pieces and used them for inspiration over the years.
Nigel was the reason I bought the brand with my business partner @jamessleater
Naturally when it came to our first collaboration, Nigel was my dream
We spent a year working together
The whole @buffalosystems team in Sheffield got to meet him and work with him to make our new iconic collaboration together.
I’m so proud of this collection
Authentically northern
Bringing Northumberland and Yorkshire together
The whole journey was filmed in our documentary, Made in Sheffield, that will be shown on Channel 5 in the new year.
We have only made a limited run of 1/250 in each colour of these jackets that will be available on Tuesday, which also happens to be my birthday.
Sadly Nigel passed away earlier this year, and this was his parting gift to us, one of the last Nigel Cabourn collaborations
We couldn’t be prouder, a functional collectors piece that will last for decades, that can be worn in the Himalaya or in Sheffield.
Two icons. Two shirts
We miss you Nigel and hope you are proud of what we did together
With thanks to @drewbafana @benoliel @clutchcafelondon @propermag @mensfilemagazine

Priority access is now open to the Buffalo community. Link in the bio.
The Cabourn Mountain Shirt, in Torchlight Orange and Rannoch Blue. 250 of each, numbered by hand. The Cabourn hood is also available.
As @benfogle puts it:
“Over the years I have taken Cabourn pieces to Everest, Antarctica, the Himalaya and the Andes, to name just a few places. His designs transcend style and embrace function and performance.
We often discussed Buffalo Systems together. It was a brand he admired greatly. When the opportunity arose to buy the brand, he was my chief cheerleader. Encouraging me to breathe new life into this iconic brand.
Naturally, when it came to Buffalo’s first collaboration, Nigel Cabourn was my dream collaborator.”
Priority access ends at 11:59pm on Monday. Link in bio.

Two icons. One shirt.
Our first collaboration is coming, with Nigel Cabourn. The Mountain Shirt, in Torchlight Orange and Rannoch Blue. 250 of each, numbered by hand.
Nigel sadly passed away a few months ago, but not before the shirt was finished. As @benfogle puts it:
“His parting gift to us was an iconic Mountain Shirt that tells the story of a man who loved life. A man who loved great design and who respected heritage and history.”
Only 250 of each are made. Sign up on the collection page (link in bio) by 9am on Saturday and we’ll send you the link to buy first.

Time to wrap up in warmth.
Just one of the many uses of our Field Blanket.
Originally built for Mountain Rescue. Pertex Quantum outer, pile lining, windproof and fast-drying. After a cold swim, on the hill, or round the campfire.

STORIES BEHIND THE GEAR: @buffalosystems
A stag’s demeanour could never be described as ‘quizzical’ or, indeed, ‘curious’. It just kind of stares laconically with a hint of ‘I’m higher up the food chain than you’. It’s not, of course, but you’d still want to avoid any close contact with those magnificent antlers. We hadn’t expected to see a stag on our climb to Lochnagar. In fact, we hadn’t really expected to see anything when we set off in the dark. It was raining, again, and the sky felt heavy. This would be a claggy walk. There was a little questioning (rather than outright dissent) as we woke after a fitful night in the bothy, but we felt like sturdy types in sturdy clothing, and trod on regardless.
On the King’s Balmoral estate, an early summit bid led to a very royal surprise.
A ROYAL WELCOME

Two images, two adventures, two @buffalosystems jackets!
Taken six years apart in mountains of Kyrgyzstan the Skulls are from an Ibex and are the target of the illusive Snow Leopard which, we were laying camera traps to try to photograph.
I was super fortunate to have the support of @buffalosystems on my most recent trip to Kyrgyzstan however on adventures all over the world, I have always worn their kit. This is not a paid endorsement, but I have nothing else to say other than I’m a kit nerd that loves what they do. Made in Sheffield, tested in the field, I can’t imagine reaching for a different jacket when packing for an adventure!
Thank you @buffalosystems!

What a great evening with these 3 legends, Lachlan, Ewan and Jamie Maclean
Their new book, Three Brothers in a Boat is a brilliant, funny, gripping and emotional read and is available from all good independent bookshops.
Thanks for coming to the @buffalosystems Steel and Grit club in Sheffield
Uplifting stories of derring-do in the heart of Sheffield
What’s not to love ❤️

We have just returned from high in the Kyrgyz mountains, working towards a project that aims to come to a population estimate for Snow Leopards in the region.
It is truly a land of mystery, where you cannot be sure what you will find with every step of your horse. The scenery, smells and sounds of this trip will stay with me.
My role was to capture elements of the start of the project, which will run for the next ten years with over 100 camera traps placed in secret locations within the mountain range. We have been using 4x4s and horse back to access areas where the 4x4’s couldn’t get to.
We have been incredibly remote. Often a two or three hour ride from base camp, which is a 6 hour 4x4 to the nearest road and many more hours to the next town let alone a hospital.
Working closely with the rangers from the national park has been key to both the success of the project, but also our safety in the mountains. They’re the most incredible people, living for months at a time high in the mountains, conserving the natural world. For me, spending time with the rangers, while in the yurt or on horse back has been the best part of this trip. Learning about their incredible culture, love for music, horses and history. Their connection to nomadic life, and their semi-wild horses is infectious. Maybe in another life I could be a Kyrgyz mountain ranger?
The project is in conjunction with St Andrews University and The Snow Leopard trust, but fully facilitated by @wildexpeditions.info. My good friends @becca_jevons & @christopher_beard_ started Wild Expeditions over six years ago, taking people on wild adventures all over the planet. Their trips are always linked with a local research organisation and have conservation at their heart.
I couldn’t be more proud of these two! What they have achieved in building this incredible and unique business from the ground up is actually staggering.
Im sad that the trip has come to an end, this has been a true adventure with people that warm the soul. Even if there have been some feral beasts.
Thanks to @buffalosystems for providing some incredible kit for the expedition, none of us took it off!

@sam__sheriff spent twenty-two years as a Royal Marines Commando, serving in every Commando Unit going. Arctic, jungle, desert, all of it. He also became the first serving Marine to earn a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) black belt, growing BJJ from nothing into the most popular sport in the Corps.
After leaving the Royal Marines, Sam founded @reorgcharity, using jiu-jitsu to help military, emergency services and veterans through recovery and transition. What started as one man’s idea is now a community reaching right across the UK, awarded an MBE for the work along the way.
Sam first wore Buffalo in 1999, on Commando Training. In the military, it’s known as “warmers kit,” or the “Kabul pashmina.”
The second interview in our Steel & Grit series is with Sam. His time in the Marines, the work REORG does now, and the moment a dry Buffalo shirt made a very wet patrol bearable.
