Tweed is an unfinished woolen fabric with a soft, open, and flexible texture. It resembles cheviot or homespun but features a tighter weave. This fabric comes in plain or twill weaves and often showcases check or herringbone patterns. Twisting differently colored woolen strands into two- or three-ply yarn creates subdued, interesting color effects (heather mixtures). Tweed offers excellent durability and natural moisture resistance, making it ideal for informal outerwear. In Ireland and the UK, it remains a staple for outdoor activities like shooting and hunting. Today, tweed enjoys a resurgence, with top designers and fashion brands incorporating it into contemporary collections.
