Alan Paine Mens Cord Trousers Navy

The Alan Paine brand was established in the historic market town of Godalming in Surrey, England in 1907. Wool and knitting industries were important sources of income in the area over a number of centuries. Evidence of this survives in the town’s emblem – a woolsack – which is still in official use today and was included in the Alan Paine crest through the years.

Alan Paine was born to parents William and Jessie in 1907. Having worked as an apprentice in a Leicester factory, when he was 18 Alan joined the family business, taking the helm of the company when William died in 1949.

This was a turning point for the business and marked the beginning of the expansion to the United States and a company name change to Alan Paine.

By the end of the sixties, Alan’s sons Richard and Nigel had joined him in the business.

In 2009 Alan Paine launched its country wear collection featuring stylish tweeds, performance waterproofs, versatile fleeces, quilts, knitwear and accessories.
