Estate Tweed – Country House Heritage, Modern Style
From Country Estates to Sartorial Statements
Estate Tweed was born on the grand country estates of Britain, woven for gamekeepers and landowners who needed durable, weather-resistant clothing. Each estate developed its own unique check or pattern, serving both practical and stylish purposes. Today, Estate Tweed is a byword for British country elegance—blending tradition with a modern, sophisticated twist.
Signature Colours & Weaves
Estate Tweed is instantly recognisable for its bold, estate-specific checks, earthy greens, russet browns, ochres, and slate greys. You’ll find:
- Estate Checks: Unique to each estate, often featuring vibrant windowpanes
- Herringbone & Twill: For added depth and texture
- Heathered Effects: Mimicking the British countryside Every bolt tells a story of place, heritage, and personality.
Durability & Fabric Weights
Estate Tweed is built for the outdoors, with weights from 14oz to 18oz. It’s ideal for:
- Gamekeeping & Field Sports: Tough enough for brambles and rain
- Weekend Escapes: Country walks, pub lunches, and fireside gatherings
- Layering: Warmth and structure for autumn and winter Despite its ruggedness, Estate Tweed is surprisingly comfortable and softens over time.
Suggested Wear & Styling
Estate Tweed is for those who want to channel that “country house cool”—whether you’re at a shoot, a city brunch, or a garden party. Men can style a hacking jacket with cords and boots, while women can rock a bold check gilet or a tailored 3-piece suit for instant countryside chic.
Care & Maintenance
Estate Tweed is low-maintenance: brush off mud, air after wear, and spot clean when needed. Its robust nature means it only gets better with each outing.
