Join the Finisterre crew, and local ambassadors Noah Lane and Easkey Britton, as they trek the Wild Atlantic Way, on the west coast of Ireland. Their quest, waves, wild swims, remote coastal paths and perhaps a pint or two of the plain – all in pursuit of 'decisive moments' for our Autumn collection.

The west coast of Ireland is a palimpsest - layer upon layer of drowned kingdoms, unbridled squalls and fortress cliffs carved by the raw power of the Atlantic ocean.
Here, the setting sun tracks low and southwesterly on the Wild Atlantic Way. It is both place and attitude, where every beach, cliff, and headland oriented towards the west is soaked in golden light, willing us all to be more bold, more resolute, and more adventurous.
Autumn envelops us.
We feel it’s cold touch on darkened dawn patrols.
See it in the burnt umber of the gorse.
And hear the crump of its steady advance with each unfurling wave.
This is the season of our making,
Where we face our fears without pause.
For as autumn wakes and Atlantic lows push corduroy lines westward
We steel ourselves for what lies ahead
And repeat
Then repeat again…
Be bold,
Embrace the elements.
