I just received a shetland sweater from Inverallan, and I was surprised to see "IN" as the country of origin on the customs form (I had to pay 18% duties as a result, I'm in Canada). After contacting Inverallan, they informed me that all of their sweaters were made in India, which is not written anywhere on their website.
A bit disappointed.
Here is the answer I got from them:
I guess it's good news for US buyers, they won't have to pay the 25% tarrif on Made in UK clothing...

Hi <name>,
Yes our garments are knitted in India, all our yarn etc is sourced from the UK, however our knitting is carried out in India and then the items are shipped back to ourselves for us to go through various processes here. For a garment to be knitted in the UK you would be looking to pay much much more I'm afraid.
I hope you understand and have a nice day
Kind Regards
Shannon
