Saddleworth Morris Men – Our Kit

Saddleworth Morris men are easily identified, Primarily due to our decorated bowler hats, which each man decorates with fresh flowers, each time we turn out.

We wear Lancashire dancing clogs, with bells, (each member earns 2 bells per clog for each dancing year completed), White socks, black breeches and a blue cumberbund.

White collarless shirts with blue and red sashes over worn with our striped waistcoats.

The side owns the pattern for the waistcoat material and the current bolt was woven for us by Saddleworth Museum using a Dobcross loom. The yarn was kindly donated by a local spinning company.

We are grateful for all their support.
