Where to go in London for decent tweed?

Just dug out the magazine (Observer) page 9 if you want to check.

Says "Harris Tweed Blazer - proof that classics exist for a reason - £150 topman".

I only clicked on this thread because I thought it was asking where to buy the best weed in London and was interested!!

Old Hat seems to have moved its vintage away from Fulham.
A good middle ground is Connock and Lockie for non-Row bespoke.

Hi folks,

I know this thread (pun intended) is rather old now but Im hoping some of the people who replied originally still use this site and know of any recent additions to those listed above. Newer users also please do comment if you can help.

I am in a very similar position to 'GF' and I am looking for a tweed jacket and waistcoat for my wedding in Feb. I no longer have the time for something bespoke so looking for OTP that can be altered if needed.

So far walker slater looks ideal, but Id rather not bank all my hopes on one place. If any one knows of anything similar, please could you advise?

Thanks

Greg

I really like Thomas Farthing over by the British Museum as well. Has the added bonus of a penny farthing outside the shop :)

Thank you.
They look great too.

Go and see Stephen at http://tweedsoflondon.com, a lovely bloke, and will do you a nice cuppa while you browse.
He also does kilts.

Nathan made my wedding suit a couple of years back. Amazing guy and a fantastic service.

I have a new Harris jacket if anyone's looking? Was a well-meant present but I'll never wear it.

Old Town is a possible source, but it depends on when in February the wedding is . They usually take 4 -6 weeks.
