Description
The »Somerset« ladies’ tweed jacket is a refined blend of traditional countrywear and timeless elegance. Crafted of genuine Scottish tweed and tailored in one of the last traditional coat and jacket manufactures in England, it represents outstanding craftsmanship and the finest material quality.
Fabric & craftsmanship
The premium pure new wool tweed impresses with its base in elegant gold olive and a subtly accentuated overcheck in sky blue – an unusual yet time-honoured colour combination. The fabric is sourced from the renowned Lovat Mill in Hawick, Scotland – a weaving mill with centuries of tradition. The blend of combed merino wool and finely spun Cheviot wool creates a lightweight yet durable tweed with exceptional resistance to moisture and cold.
Symbolism & colour
The subtle blue overcheck is more than just a design feature – it draws on a rich tradition: In heraldry and hunting culture, pale blue was regarded as the colour of falconers. Symbolising calm, foresight and precision, it reflected the dignity of this noble craft. With the »Somerset« tweed, this symbolism lives on in a modern, understated way – subtle yet striking. A colour that doesn’t shout – but still stands out.
Warmth & protection
Designed for changeable weather, the jacket is equipped with a wind- and waterproof membrane. All seams in the shoulder and neck area are sealed to reliably protect against penetrating moisture. A two-way zip made of solid brass is concealed beneath a storm flap with hidden press studs, while knitted inner cuffs at the wrists ensure a comfortable fit and added protection.
Function & details
Finely considered details make the »Somerset« both a functional and stylish garment. The ends of the back pleat, the sleeve cuffs and pocket openings are reinforced with sky-blue Alcantara – a durable, dimensionally stable material that adds a subtle touch of colour contrast. The two softly lined hand-warmer pockets provide cosy warmth on cooler days. The thoughtfully designed layout also includes generously sized bellows pockets and two discreetly integrated inside pockets for safely storing hunting essentials or personal items. A practical feature for field use: The pocket flaps can be secured with tabs and press studs for quick, silent access to cartridges whenever needed. An adjustment tab in the back allows for a custom fit at the waist and subtly highlights the feminine silhouette.
Heritage & tradition
Originally developed as a hard-wearing fabric for Scottish crofters, tweed was adopted in the 19th century by the British aristocracy and refined into what became known as Estate Tweed. Queen Victoria, Prince Albert, and their successors helped establish tweed as a key element of refined outdoor dress. The »Somerset« jacket carries this legacy forward – a timeless companion for hunting, countryside walks or everyday wear in town and country alike.
Collection & styling
The »Somerset« tweed can be perfectly paired with other pieces from the namesake collection to create a harmonious and elegant overall look.
