The finest tweeds are from Scotland

While fashions come and go, tweeds have remained in style for many decades. They’re supremely comfortable and warm, yet remain flexible enough to be worn even when taking part in rigorous pursuits such as hiking and fell-walking. The finest tweed clothing is manufactured in Scotland.

The islands of Harris, Uist, Barra and Lewis are synonymous with tweed production, and the locals use the same weaving techniques that have stood the test of time for hundreds of years. When purchasing tweed, always look for the label that says ‘Made in Scotland’.
