Tweed got its name by accident in 1826 in Hawick, when a merchant's label on a shipment of wool tweel (the Scottish term for twill) bound for a London milliner was misread and confused with the moniker of the nearby River Tweed.
Known for its heavy, sturdy and rough texture and high resistance to cold temperatures and bad weather conditions (rain and wind). Tweed is often woven using different color yarns in order to create unique patterns, often featuring vertical stripes or checks.
The natural qualities of Wool mean that it is renewable, biodegradable and recyclable. It is highly durable, with inherent flame-resistant properties and a good level of natural water repellence. It is simply the ultimate natural performance fibre.
