Tweed isn’t just for English professors anymore.

The classic woolen fabric is looking modern in slimmed-down menswear jacket and coats this winter. Rough Harris tweed is hand-woven, Donegal’s known by its thick slubs of woven-in colored yarns, and Herringbone is the most classic with its V-shaped parallel lines. Plush modern tweeds aren’t itchy or hot and look great with a classic white shirt and crisp blue jeans.
