Donegal Tweed Jacket
From the Holiday 1987 catalogue: “When not practicing their storyteller’s art, the imaginative Irish of County Donegal weave colorful yarns of a more tangible sort. Donegal tweeds are unpredictable: All misty hues, nubby textures, and hearty character, the color-flecked warp and weft of a true Donegal mirrors the changing moods of both isle and artisan. From this extraordinary fabric we styled and elegantly understated jacket with a clean, contoured fit. Shoulders have been softly padded; elbows and pocket welts reinforced with supple suede. The welcoming ease of a bi-swing back frees arms and shoulders for casting a fishing line or a long last look. Guaranteed to impart a distinctive Eire.”
