What is Tweed?

Tweed is a sturdy and durable carded wool fabric with a rustic appearance and characteristic texture. It is traditionally woven in a herringbone, twill, or houndstooth pattern, often incorporating different colored yarns to create a rich, mottled appearance. Tweed was originally produced in Scotland and Ireland, and its name is thought to derive from the Scottish word “tweel,” or perhaps from the River Tweed that flows through the border region between Scotland and England .

Tweed is prized for its warmth, weather resistance and durability , making it ideal for outdoor clothing and garments that need to withstand rough use.

Tweed’s unique properties include:

  • Warmth and Thermal Insulation: Its dense wool construction and airy texture trap heat, making it ideal for cold climates.
  • Durability and Wear Resistance: It is an extremely robust fabric that withstands intensive use and the passage of time.
  • Water and Weather Resistance: Wool fibers and tight weave offer a certain natural resistance to water and wind.
  • Rustic and Classic Aesthetics: Its textured appearance and traditional patterns give it a timeless, country charm.
  • Variety of Colors and Textures: Although it is associated with earthy tones, threads of different colors create visually interesting and complex mixtures.
  • Breathability: As a natural fiber, wool allows air circulation.

Main types of Tweed marketed:

  • Harris Tweed: A specific type of tweed handwoven by the islanders of Scotland’s Outer Hebrides. It is protected by law and synonymous with the highest quality and authenticity.
  • Donegal Tweed: Produced in County Donegal, Ireland, characterized by its colored flecks embedded in the fabric.
  • Cheviot Tweed: Made from the wool of Cheviot sheep, it is heavier and rougher, very durable.
  • Saxony Tweed: Made from Merino wool, it is softer and more luxurious than other tweeds.
  • Herringbone Tweed: The most common and recognizable pattern.
  • Houndstooth Tweed: A distinctive plaid pattern.
  • Twill Tweed: With the characteristic diagonal pattern of twill.

Common forms of Tweed marketed:

  • Tweed Fabric in Rolls: The most common form, in different widths and lengths, ready for use in clothing or upholstery.
  • Pure Wool Tweed Fabric: 100% virgin wool.
  • Tweed Blend Fabric: With a small percentage of other fibers (e.g., cashmere for softness, nylon for strength) to enhance certain properties.
