#328 Harris Tweed® 5 Pocket - Heather Grey

The history of Harris Tweed wool is worth reading about and this is one time we actually won't even attempt to relay the full detail here. It's well worth looking up and reading about if you love fabric like we do. What makes this wool so special to us is how hand-made the fabric is and how each step is considered. This craft style production is something you just don't find anymore. The fundamentals are these: it's made of 100% Pure New Wool that is dyed, blended, carded, spun, warped, woven, and finished only in Scotland’s Outer Hebrides. It is stamped, certified and guaranteed to be genuine and of high quality by a rigorous governing body. The wool is woven in islander's homes, not at a mill. It's a process preserved for over a century. 

Paired with our 5 Pocket style, all this history comes to life in a package usable today. The picture begins to convey the full character of this wool. The richness of the color is stunning. The flecks and variation is unique. Each is an earthy and rich display. The feel is a combination of authentic, vintage wool feel and texture, with a plush finish. You definitely feel the classic fibrous hand. It's rugged, but there is a sense of volume and durability that's hard to match. You will feel it the moment you touch these pants. It's a special product.
