I have been wearing my chessnut color play sports jacket for over thirty years. I love this hand-made fabric, it is like my second skin, at least in autumn and winter. Many thanks and greetings from Nuremberg to Harris Island. Next I will try the whisky from this island. The gin in its very beautiful bottle has already won me over. 😉

What are the properties of wool-linen blend? Is it best of, worst of, average of both? Warmth when wet? Cooling? Wrinkling or piling or both? Iron at high or low heat?
The fact that they hearted this comment without answering 😂 Here’s what cGPT says; idrk if this is all true, esp for specific blends: A wool-linen blend combines the properties of both fibers, potentially offering a balanced set of characteristics. Here are some key points: 1. **Warmth**: Wool is an excellent insulator, providing warmth even when wet. Linen is a cooler fabric, known for its breathability. A wool-linen blend would offer moderate warmth, suitable for various seasons, with wool's insulating properties and linen's cooling effect. 2. **Warmth When Wet**: Wool retains warmth when wet, while linen can feel cooler. The blend would retain some warmth due to the wool content, but not as effectively as pure wool. 3. **Cooling**: Linen's breathability helps keep the wearer cool. A wool-linen blend would be more breathable and cooler than pure wool, making it more comfortable in warmer conditions. 4. **Wrinkling**: Linen is prone to wrinkling, while wool is more resistant. The blend would wrinkle less than pure linen but more than pure wool. 5. **Piling**: Wool is prone to pilling, especially with friction. Linen is less likely to pill. The blend might pill, but less than pure wool. 6. **Ironing**: Wool is generally ironed at a lower heat to avoid damage, while linen can tolerate higher temperatures. For a wool-linen blend, it is best to iron at a moderate heat setting, and ideally, check the care label for specific instructions. In summary, a wool-linen blend offers a combination of warmth, breathability, moderate wrinkling, and reduced pilling, with ironing at a moderate heat. It strikes a balance between the properties of both fibers, making it versatile for different conditions.
Brown herringbone was wow it caught my eye right away I would love a jacket in that one plus green mist and olive herringbone these three spoke to me I think a pair of trousers in green mist would be a nice compliment to all three.
Hey James! I don't think that we'll restock this as an inventory item, but I can actually make this for you as a one-off custom piece. Feel free to drop me a line at eva@epauletbrand.com 😁
Awesome, glad that you like them! Feel free to reach out if you’d like to commission your own Harris Tweed garment 😊 Oh and that’s my hand, and I’m a woman. I shoot a lot of fabric videos, so manicures are a pretty regular thing for me 💅
Perhaps you can consider bringing back the shoe projects ? Those made in Portugal, I have the stingray and a white soft sneaker. But they are old now, needs new ones. Thanks !
I'm actually working on restarting the sneakers later this year with a brand new factory. We'd be doing more standard leathers (no exotics), and working to bring them in at a really competitive price and the same great quality. Hope that you're enjoying that Stingray pair -- they were wild!
