Abraham Moon & Sons is a British fashion brand, specializing in wool and tweed clothing.[1]
History
Abraham Moon founded the business in 1837 in Guiseley, West Yorkshire.[2] His son Isaac took over when Isaac died in an accident in 1877. Isaac constructed a new mill when a fire destroyed the original structure in 1902. In 1920, Charles H Walsh purchased the company, however he died in 1924 and the business passed to his son Frank. The Walsh family still owns and operates the business.[3]
The company is one of Yorkshire's oldest clothing brands still in operation.[4][5] The brand has a flagship shop at 33 Stonegate in York.[6]
