Wool Tweed Check Overcoat

We found this fabric in my favourite fabric shop Woolcrest. When i used to work there, i used to always put aside the top of the cream for myself when there was a new delivery.

This fabric is likely to come from a Burberry factory as an end of line but i could never say say for sure!

And here’s the chatgpt description

A substantial wool tweed woven in a classic heritage check of warm browns with a subtle russet overcheck. The cloth has a soft but structured hand, giving the coat shape while remaining comfortable enough for everyday wear.

Inside, the coat is lined in a deep burgundy cotton which adds warmth, durability, and a quiet richness when the coat is opened. The combination of earthy tweed and the dark red lining reflects the colours of winter fields and old interiors — practical, timeless, and made to age beautifully.
