Tweed Jacket
Hello,
Its getting colder and I thought about looking for a tweed jacket, something like old hunters sometimes wear lol. Or maybe even a bit longer like a mantle idk. Does anyone have some recommendations?

Hi @Erdos! For better answers, include:
- Reference pictures
- Budget in numbers
- Specific measurements
- Openness to buying secondhand and/or online
- Location: country/continent is fine
- Timing/urgency
Do you have any specific inspiration. They are a lot of different tweed styles and a lot of them have specific terms associated with them that can help you find them.
Overall my advice would be to search eBay there are a ton of old jackets on there.
do you mean tweed styles in terms of the fabric or the cut? I think I would like a heavy fabric. Cut I am pretty open idk
I just am not sure if you have a specific style in mind and then people could give you recommendations of where to find it. Or if you are looking for ideas/inspiration. both these are tweed jackets but are pretty different.
I really like the style of the right one. I want something a bit longer but not too long. And big pockets lol
That style of jacket is called a Norfolk jacket.
