Benefits of Tweed
There are many benefits to wearing tweed. Apart from the country feel it will give you, tweed is durable, warm and cosy too. Further, it keeps out the wind and repels water pretty well too. With added waterproof and breathable membranes now available, tweed jackets can be fully waterproof.
There are many different tweed styles and designs available on the market, including lambswool, traditional wool and Harris Tweed. There are also a variety of lovely colours available including blue, red and, of course, superb shades of browns and greens.
In addition, you can wear a tweed jacket with just about anything these days. Probably your tradiitonal country look is a tweed jacket with a checked blouse and a stylish pair of moleskin jeans. That said, you can dress a tweed jacket up or down in many different ways, depending upon the occasion. One example is to use a silk scarf or tie accordingly.
