The Official Tweed Appreciation Thread

Right, my bad, I remembered Butler being in the less-than-173cm league which I define as the European short.

Oh my, looks beautiful. Do you think there are skin/hair types this would/wouldn't suit better?

You dont wear your tweed in 90 degree weather??????

 

[Sir Royston]

I certainly do.. One must suffer for the cause

 

[DavideMiguel85]

Damn, seems I'm letting the team down. I can cope okay with lightweight tweed at say around 20C but 30... Damn, I struggle even with linen. I have to be very conservative with my movements... Anything too strenuous or excessive (like walking to the door and turning the handle too quickly) can cause a massive heat meltdown!

Are you wearing unlined tweed? Or are you just badass?

 

[DavideMiguel85]

I have just placed an order for this Molloy & Sons tweed, which I think is quite beautiful in the flesh. The jacket will be very simple - double vent, no ticket, single breast, 3.75" lapel, sloping pockets, no elbow patches. So no distractions from the beautiful fabric & cut )

 

[DavideMiguel85]

What do you make of this vintage tweed? Almost tempted just because I think it makes people either laugh or smile!

 

[ojaw]

Not doing much for the team by wearing that...

 

[DavideMiguel85]

Did you have nightmares as well?

 

[ojaw]

Oh no, merely internal waggling fingers.
