A New Autumn/Winter Wardrobe in Evolved, Lightweight, and Soft Tweed



Regarding the focus on tweed this November, HANKYU MEN'S buyer Makoto Ikai commented, "Last year, Harris Tweed celebrated its 100th anniversary, and this season's tweed offerings are even more abundant. Tweed, a key material this season, goes beyond traditional classics to include jersey weaves and tweed-patterned prints on nylon, representing an 'evolved tweed' that transcends conventional boundaries. We invite you to experience the appeal of this 'new tweed' – lightweight and soft – perfect for casual urban wear."

Tweed's characteristic multi-color patterns also make it easy to pair with any color, so please pay attention to our tweed accessories like hats, ties, and gloves."
While tweed is a staple for men's fashion in autumn and winter, HANKYU MEN'S TOKYO is proposing a modernly updated tweed style this season, emphasizing its warmth and comfort as its key feature," concluded buyer Ikai.
