HS2188 Sherry Tweed
100% LAMBSWOOL JACKETINGAn icon of Scottish textiles – tweed fabric with its rustic charm truly channels the spirit of Scotland’s rolling hills and rugged shores.Our journey begins in New Zealand where the mild climate, moderate rainfall and abundant sunshine create an ideal environment for some of the world’s finest non-mulesed, wool-producing sheep.We have selected pure virgin wool, guaranteed to be the first clip from lambs born the previous year. Thriving in areas of clean water and lush vegetation, the molecular structure of the wool fibre is consistent and uncontaminated by vegetable matter, making it soft to touch and durable to wear. The wool is quite coarse around 28µ providing the fabric with its crisp and prickly handle that typifies a true tweed fabric.Once harvested, the wool is woven and finished in the UK in the traditional, time-honoured way.With their unique, enchanting vibrancy, the designs in this comprehensive collection capture the essence of classic tweed whilst incorporating a contemporary colour palette. Warm and soft to touch, attractive and durable, contemporary yet traditional, this classic collection represents the ultimate tweed.
