Ladies Donegal Blazer, Herringbone, Brown

The brown ladies blazer in equestrian style made of Irish herringbone Donegal tweed by Magee with its characteristic colourful flecks cuts a fine figure. The yellow collar felt and braided leather buttons match the sporty cut of the blazer with breast welt pocket, slanted ticket and flap pockets, dark brown suede sleeve patches and two back vents. A small piped pocket is worked into the golden yellow viscose lining.The back length for size 36 is 67 cm.Fabric weight: 410 g/rmThe weavers of Magee have been countering the cold and damp weather, which is common in the northwest of Ireland, since 1866 with non-sensitive tweed fabrics whose yarns have been given colourful flecks. The county of Donegal gave its name to the tweeds, which at that time were still rather coarse and hand-woven. Today they are produced on modern looms, but still - and with full conviction - from natural fibres. Today, this tradition is today proudly carried on by the family-run business that, although one of the oldest weaving mills in Ireland, keeps up with the times.
