About Tweed
Tweed's humble beginnings reach back to the early 19th century when it was first hand-woven in Scotland as warm, durable work wear for crofters. When the nobility of the British Isles stayed in Scotland they adopted tweed, wearing it on their grand Highland estates, particularly for country sports. With traditional designs including checks, herringbones and barleycorns, tweed has become an icon of British and Scottish style.

About Cotton
Cool, smooth cotton is one of the world’s most popular fibres. Grown in tropical regions, the cotton emerges from the plant in a round ball which is then harvested and spun into thread. The main component of cotton is cellulose, giving the fabric its strength and durability, which means cotton garments rarely lose their original shape. Cotton is common in summer clothing due to its breathability; however, cotton-rich clothing is also a popular choice in the winter for light layering.
