Traditional, classic and more easily styled than you’d think.Tweed has got a bit of a name for itself as an old fashioned material. It’s easy to think of its main fans as rich landowners, strutting around their country estate with their hunting rifle, and although this might be true in some areas, tweed is a lot more versatile than that. There’s no rule that says you have to own a country estate to wear a tweed jacket, and likewise there’s no reason to go for the traditional green check design. We show you some of the best ways to wear a tweed jacket to suit every occasion.

Grey Tweed Blazer

If you’re new to tweed, and you don’t want to go for anything that’s too strong or stand out, you might want to start with a clean, versatile colour with a minimal pattern. They’re various shades of grey, but a light tone is an easy colour to incorporate into more casual looks, so if you’re looking for something that you can blend into a variety of styles, then it’s a good choice. Because the colour goes with so much, you can match a grey blazer with less conventional pieces, creating a bigger mix of smart casual looks than you might have thought.


Brown Tweed Blazer

Brown is one of the more traditional colours for tweed jackets and blazers, and gives a more muted, subtle finish to an outfit. You can match it with both light and dark tone clothing to change up the look and vibe of a piece, making it a versatile item to have in your wardrobe.

Tan Tweed Blazer

If you like the warm, autumnal tone of brown, but you’d prefer something lighter, a tan tweed blazer has the best of both worlds and, as an added bonus, isn’t the typical tweed colour, so adds a unique element to your outfit. Because of its light tone, you can easily go for a less formal, smart casual outfit, especially if you choose a busier, patterned design.

Green Tweed Blazer

Another classic colour for the tweed blazer, and probably the most recognisable shade, a green tweed blazer is for the true fans of the look, and those who want a subtle splash of colour in their outfit. Most green tweed jackets have a tint of brown in them, giving them a warm finish, and giving them a versatile edge. With an ability to complement both light and dark tone clothing, a green tweed blazer is one of those pieces that’s great for giving a boost to a simple outfit.


Tweed jackets aren’t for everyone, but they’ve come a long way since their rustic beginnings, taking on modern influences and coming in subtle as well as bolder designs.
