Harris Tweed is incomparable for those engaged in outdoor 

 pursu ts ; sportsmen have always recognised its usefulness. 

 No other tweed can show up so beautifully after the roughest 

 and most careless treatment and exposure to every variety 

 of weather. It is extremely comfortable in wear and bears 

 that strong and characteristic look which is reminiscent of 

 the country where it is made. 



Patterns and Particulars post free.
