We took our Bobby hoodies down to the beach for an adventure. Something MASSIVE happened.
A lovely woman flagged me down and told me that because of these hoodies and the awareness that they’ve brought about, she has looked up the @addiction_family_support Charity and it has brought her solace - as she is going through addiction related trauma at the moment.
Just wearing one might help someone who desperately needs it without saying a word.
This means such a lot to us. It is what it’s ALL about.
Thank you for supporting us. Thank you for buying the hoodies. We love you.
We are supporting @addiction_family_support with every hoodie sold.
The Pass of Tears • Into Patagonia
“This is the wildest place I’ve ever been.” @calliecoles and @toby_coles ahead of 400 km across Patagonia. Organised by @jakotango
Full film in bio.
After the demand for the Iggywick Goldfinch Bobble hat, we have come up with the Iggywick Goldfinch Cap.
A understated nod back to our childhood in the 90s a stonewashed cap in green, sturdy, durable, but lightweight and very comfortable to wear, it has the tick from all corners of our family: me, Callie, Jesse, Merlin and Pippin.
Tried and tested by us on three continents over the last year, and she is noticed where ever we go.

This one packs a punch.
Pink was Bobby, Toby’s father’s favourite colour, He wore it every day. Even as a Life Guard 💂🏽♀️ for Trooping of the Colour (bright pink socks under his Household Cavalry ceremonial knee length jackboots!)
Both of Mole’s parents, Bobby and Sally, struggled with alcoholism and - it probably doesn’t need saying but - this affected Mole, deeply and irrevocably.
We thought long and hard about how to turn something so painful into something positive and this is what we came up with.
We are releasing what we genuinely believe after extensive research - is one of the best hoodies on the market.
The whole point is that we will send fifty per cent of the profit to support @addiction_family_support - a charity dedicated to the families of addicts.
I have written the full story of the desperately sad addiction story on my Substack (it’s free to read). A story of horrific addiction in our Iggywick family sadly without a happy ending.
Our mission is to try and help other families going through similar issues.
The hoodie will be available in one colour. There will be just the one run. Made from 100% of the thickest most luxurious organic cotton. As always, we haven’t skimped. All made with the highest quality.
This hoodie is a statement in both yourself and in the support of some people who desperately need it. We are very proud of this one.
Today is Bobby’s heavenly 87th birthday. Happy birthday Bobby. I know how proud you must be looking down on your beautiful son. We love you. This one is for you. 🩷

We are selling our home.
It has given our children the perfect amount of freedom and wonder, snails and roses.
It has given us security and beauty in equal measures.
This has been the most wonderful chapter. You can’t buy this type of special, well actually you can now!
@florence_biss_knight_frank knows everything you might want to know.
Now these are the real heros of @passoftears
I do miss them. At this stage each one had done more than 300km across what you have just seen. Unbelievable.
Thank you @jakotango and @estancia_laperseverancia your horses are some of the most special in the world. Certainly the toughest.
