Harris Tweed undoubtedly belongs in every WASPs wardrobe, and it is one of the most desirable fabrics for fall/winter sport coats. Every year I anticipate the dropping temperatures so I can bring out my collection of various Harris Tweeds. As we approach warmer weather, I take the opportunity to wear my tweeds as often as possible before I must pack them away. For those who may not know about Harris Tweed, let's take a moment to fill you in on the rich history. Harris Tweed is a luxury cloth woven by the islanders of the isles of Harris. Each jacket has a special label signifying that the tweed is authentic Harris Tweed. The fabric is durable and it provides great warmth. The pattern above is one of many designs, and I recommend owning at least two Harris Tweed jackets.

I just got my first Harris Tweed sport coat last month. I love it.
you beat me to it...be looking for my "Harris Tweed" tomorrow...Keep up the good work!
Great post. Harris Tweed is like a second skin. The Southern California climate means I can't don the Tweed year round, but if I could, I would.
