Our Story

The Gentleman’s Hour exists out of a desire to create a quality, British made grooming range with classic characteristics and a modern twist. A brand which appeals to the discerning gentleman.



Founder and owner, retired Police Officer Colin Mowat, developed the products with manufacturers to exacting standards over a period of over three years. His belief that, whatever the fashion or fad, gentlemen know quality when they see, feel and smell it, directed the nature of the end product.

“After 30 years in the Police Force, I appreciate the modern man lives in a busy, and often hostile environment. The challenges of each day are unknown during the quiet moments of daily preparation.

We don’t pretend to have the answers to the questions that need addressing in all the rigours and demands of a day. However, we like to think that as he sets himself up for the endeavours ahead, a gent can face himself in the mirror knowing he is equipped with products of the highest quality which are a pleasure to use.

These moments of peace before the storm should be enjoyed, even savoured. We call this private time…’The Gentleman’s Hour!’

We are delighted to have been able to add to our initial range, and look forward to more travellers joining us in our journey, so that our story becomes your story too.”
