More about our tweeds:

Estate Tweed

An estate tweed is created inspired by the colours that surround a particular area. Often a herringbone with large check over the top. So gamekeepers, residents and visitors could don the estate tweed and stay camouflaged whenever they went out hunting. Gun Club is a type of estate tweed.


Windowpane

Windowpane is a type of tweed or sometimes just a feature of a more complex tweed. As the name suggests, a windowpane pattern has large squares or rectangles in a colour contrasted to the background, separated by mostly plain fabric. The name of course comes from its resemblance to a window frame around glass!


Herringbone

Herringbone fabric has an arrow-like shape, consists of columns of slanted parallel lines. A typical thin herringbone in tweed might use a pattern of four threads alternating direction with the next four threads (4x4). But larger sizes of 6x6 or 8x8 are common too, and can sometimes even go up to as large as 12x12. Its name comes from the pattern's resemblance to fish bones.


Lots of Estate Tweeds combine herringbone with an overcheck in some contrasting shade. These, obviously, can also be referred to as overcheck herringbone tweeds!


Gun club

The gun club pattern is made up of a regular check pattern (normally houndstooth), with an additional windowpane check - which would be called the overcheck (in a third colour)- placed over the top. When this is done with two different overlapping colours, it's known as Gun Club tweed.


The Gun Club pattern takes its name from a design adopted in 1874, inspired by the Glenurquhart check. That was one of the earliest types of Estate Tweeds, and is essentially a houndstooth with a contrasting windowpane overlaid in alternating darker and paler lines.


Frore

Our Frore tweed is a rougher textured tweed, that features multiple windowpane tweeds overlapping one another. The Frore is subtle but classic.
