I've never owned or even tried on a tweed anything but as I grow older (ouch) I come to appreciate the look of it. I am looking at picking up an tweed blazer on Ebay but I have a few questions:
1. What seasons is this material best for?
2. I see Harris Tweed a lot (they're like the Loro Piana of tweed, right?) come up in searches, should this be the goal or major factor towards deciding on which jacket to get?
3. What color tweed is most versatile, jeans, chinos, wool pants, etc...
4. Any specific brands that one should look at for?
Here are a few Ebay blazers that caught me eye, they very in shade and pattern, opinions welcome.
