'The Heather' hat in blue Herringbone Harris Tweed, with navy cotton velvet contrast -The Heather hat is my favourite combination of Cotton velvet & Harris Tweed, they really compliment each other in colour & texture. Harris Tweed is hand-woven by islanders in their homes in the Outer Hebrides & is made from pure virgin wool dyed & spun in the Outer Hebrides. This is what entitles it to carry the famous Orb Mark certifying it as Harris Tweed. Tactile, soft, breathable, warm, colourful, sustainable & adaptable: the old image of coarse, scratchy, dour tweed simply does not exist these days. Harris Tweed retains its heritage of practicality & longevity whilst extolling all the qualities & virtues of a truly luxury fabric. Harris Tweed cloth - Clo Mor (Gaelic for 'The Big Cloth') - is the only fabric in the world governed by its own Act of Parliament & the only fabric produced in commercial quantities by truly traditional methods. Harris Tweed has a rare character & beauty. Hundreds of distinctive patterns have been developed over centuries, each one unique, but unmistakably Harris Tweed. Unusually, the wool is dyed before being spun, allowing a multitude of colours to be blended into the yarn, creating a cloth of great depth & complexity. This particular hat has a simple but classic shape, easy to wear, you can flip the brim up or down to create different angles. The Heather hat is the perfect hat for autumn & winter giving you that real pop of colour, you can easily dress this hat up or down whether popping into town or attending a special occasion. Trimmed with a complimentary tweed arrangement with a cotton velvet covered button at the centre. Lined with a quality satin. This hat is in a size medium, there is an elasticated adjuster inside, which would synch in to small size.
