History and Heritage

Jonathan Trumbull opened its doors on March 17, 1971, on St Stephens Street in Norwich, aiming to bring contemporary fashion to East Anglia. The original space quickly outgrew demand, leading to the 1976 launch of Hatters on White Lion Street, complementing the main store's offerings. In 1992, Ginger ladieswear joined on Timber Hill, expanding the family business into women's fashion. Today, Jonathan Trumbull & Hatters stands as a cornerstone of Norwich's retail scene, celebrating over five decades of style evolution.

Designer Collections

The store curates an impressive array of menswear from global icons including Aquascutum, Barbour, Belstaff, Hackett, HUGO, Lacoste, Paul Smith, and Tom Ford. Shoppers find everything from tailored suits and formalwear to casual jackets, jeans, and footwear. While the website showcases select items, the physical stores offer exclusive lines like extensive suiting options, ensuring a comprehensive wardrobe upgrade. Brands such as Jacob Cohen denim and Parajumpers outerwear cater to discerning tastes seeking quality and versatility.

Shopping Experience

Nestled in Norwich's vibrant city center, the boutique provides personalized service from knowledgeable staff praised for their expertise and friendliness.

Open six days a week from 9:15 AM to 5:30 PM, with Sundays until 4:30 PM, it's a convenient stop amid the city's historic lanes and markets.

Norwich Context

Situated in one of the UK's top retail destinations, Jonathan Trumbull benefits from Norwich's rich heritage as East England's cultural hub.
