This fabric is 100% made in Ireland using Irish lowland wool. The yarn is dyed, blended, carded and spun by us at our family run mill here in Kerry. We then weave the yarn into our classic and fashionable tweeds and fabrics. We have been weaving our Irish Wool Tweed fabric here for over 300 years. Our achievements in seamlessly bridging the gap between traditional and contemporary design speak for themselves.
We strive to share our passion for wool with our customers- where the quality and craftsmanship of our fabric and yarns far outweigh the attraction to the “fast fashion” culture. Irish Wool Tweed is an iconic part of traditional Ireland and our clothing. Bringing us back to a time when wool was the fibre of choice around the world admired and utilised for its many benefits. A fabric which has stood the test of time and one which we delight in weaving.
