Harris Tweed Hebrides

Harris Tweed has been a beloved Scottish fabric for over a century. Traditiona­lly handwoven in the homes of islanders of the Outer Hebrides,

Harris Tweed today continues to use a specific artisan system of manufactur­ing and, thanks to the 1993 Harris Tweed Act of Parliament, can only be produced in its Outer Hebrides homeland. Establishe­d in 2007, and located on the Isle of Lewis, Harris Tweed Hebrides employs bold colours and state-of-the-art equipment for fashion, home furnishing, accessorie­s, and more. The fabric has been featured in the work of designers Vivienne Westwood, Chanel, Alexander McQueen, among many others.
