Country Covers outdoor clothing and accessories

Country Covers has now become a well recognised Brand Name with our distinctive Woodcock logo. We are based in the West Country.  Our sister company, Arktis Ltd, specialises in supplying endurance clothing to military units and police forces around the world.

At  Country Covers our mission is to make available, to the general public, this same superb range of outdoor endurance clothing. Our range of tried and tested kit is now available to all who enjoy the great outdoors. We also believe that after sales back up is as important as the sale itself and our aim is always to look after our customers. All our main coats come with a no quibble 4 year guarantee. We will always make sure that our customers are happy as we very much rely on word of mouth for our continuing sales. Our philosophy is to always treat our customers the way we would like to be treated.

Finally, we have so much confidence in the products we sell, that we use them ourselves! There is nothing we sell that we do not use on a regular basis. We would like to personally thank all those customers who have purchased an item of clothing from us, and who have since taken the time to share their outdoor experience with us as this feedback contributes to the continual improvement of our products.

Visit us at our warehouse near Lyme Regis on the Dorset/ Devon border, or click on our logo to see our range. Alternatively, look out for us at the various shows and events at which we will be exhibiting this year. Venues listed on the Show Dates page of our website.
