RISEN FROM THE ASHES
The Ashes is finally back! As super fans of the sport and clothing partner of Durham Cricket, we couldn’t be more raring to go. There’s everything to play for, and we know Australia will give their all to retain the Urn.
We caught up with Durham director Marcus North, bowling coach Shaun Tait and England internationals Brydon Carse and Alex Lees to get the inside scoop on how they think the series will go.
Marcus North
Now director at Durham Cricket, Marcus knows a thing or two about the Ashes as a former Aussie international. He scored a test century on his Ashes debut which is no mean feat.
shaun tait
This master of speed is now the bowling coach at Durham, and he also played for Australia as their fast bowler before he went into coaching.
Brydon carse & alex lees
England internationals Alex and Brydon have had a solid county cricket season, having just secured another win for Durham.

Marcus north
Go for green like Marcus in a pure linen shirt in fresh olive. This new neutral goes with all the navy, browns and greys in your wardrobe, and teams effortlessly with brogues, loafers or trainers depending on the dress code.
shaun tait
Shaun knows the Overshirt is one easy layer. Go smart-casual and sharpen up a T-shirt with our navy Cotton Linen version – you’ll stay cool in the lightweight fabric blend and the extra layer is handy on those occasions day drinks in the sun turn into dinner and beyond.
alex lees
On those balmy days, the only answer is a short sleeve shirt. We’ve used a smart Cotton Linen blend for ultimate breathability and a smoother finish than you’d typically get with linen. Alex completes his look with Ultimate Chinos you’ll feel comfy in all day.
brydon carse
Keep it fresh and light in cool blues and go-with-everything beige chinos. Add some interest with slick suede trainers like Brydon – our casual shoes are made from pure European leather that stands the test of time, plus they don’t look out of place with a blazer and suit trousers.
