How Tweed Is Made: Visiting Lovat Mill | From Suit To Shoot | Episode 9

In Episode 9 of our Suit to Shoot Series, Kirby Allison finally makes it to Scotland! Our first stop is to visit Lovat Mill again. Based in Hawick, a town synonymous with the history of tweed, Lovat Mill makes the absolute finest tweeds in the world, as well as designing and manufacturing the vast majority of the estate and regimental tweeds in the United Kingdom. Kirby speaks with owners Stephen Rendle and Alan Cummings about the incredible history and tradition of Lovat, before spending time with Ruth Duff and James Fleming to learn more about the design and manufacturing of this iconic cloth. We even watch as the very fabric used for Kirby's five-piece shooting suit is woven right in front of him.
