Pop quiz! What do you know about the Outer Hebrides? Don’t worry…we’ll tell you. We’ve teamed up with renowned Scottish fabric producer, Harris Tweed to bring you a range of modernly tailored pieces that aren’t made with any ordinary threads - they’ve been hand-woven, finished, dyed and spun by islanders at their homes in the Outer Hebrides (their words, not ours). And now that they’ve been at it for a hundred years and still weaving strong, we’re not sure it has ever seen high street meet heritage quite like this.
The collection offers suits, coats and accessories made in classic patterns like herringbones and plaids - bringing style and quality together, with ultra-tailored pieces made from wools and tweeds. And it doesn't stop there. Each piece bears its own serial number that represents the specific weaver who has carefully woven each piece of fabric. There’s no doubt you’ll be wearing these threads for many Winters to come...
Hands down, our favorite from the collection is the green plaid crombie coat. This impeccably tailored winter essential offers all the goods without compromising style - featuring a classic American center vent and light brown football buttons. Take it from us: you won't look any smarter than this...
Nice post. I recently did a post a twill and wool ties. I think this is def a surge of a trend that will last ;)
