About Harris Tweed®
Harris Tweed® originated in the 19th century in Scotland's Outer Hebrides. Woven from pure virgin wool on traditional looms by Harris/Lewis islanders, the fabric was popularised by Lady Dunmore, going on to become a global style icon. Protected by the 1993 Harris Tweed® Act, Harris Tweed® is labelled for authenticity with the Orb trademark. Noted for patterns like herringbone and tartan, Harris Tweed® symbolises Scottish artisanal integrity and exclusivity.

About Pure New Wool
We proudly label many of our quality knitwear pieces as 'pure new wool' – 'pure' refers to sheep's wool, unadulterated with other fibres, and 'new' refers to virgin wool from the first shearing, not previously processed, blended, or worn. Known for its strength, durability, and insulating qualities, our pure new wool always has a soft, cosy handle – with our knitwear experience predating the building of Bruar itself, our customers expect nothing less!
