What: A “farm-to-finish” women’s wool outerwear brand with domestically-sourced and -produced designs
Price Range: $325 – $1,115
Founder: Elizabeth Williams
Origin Story: Nearly 10 years ago, founder Elizabeth Williams was disappointed when she couldn’t find a quality wool coat made without synthetic materials — so she made her own. While out at a dinner, a checkroom attendant admired the new handmade coat and slipped a note in Williams’ pocket with her contact information that read “interested buyer.” Thus, The Checkroom was born.
