“Reid and Taylor” is most famous for its association with the custom suits that movie character James Bond is seen wearing in the films. In the past they used Harris Tweed, which is a machine made Tweed exported from Scotland. They are now seeing the benefits of using and promoting 100% handmade tweed, called Kashmir Tweed. They report that the Kashmir Tweed uses a non-greasy long fiber that makes the fabric soft and flexible. In addition to the hand and aesthetic benefits of this beautiful fabric, handmade Kashmir Tweed it is also a fraction of the price of machine made Harris Tweed.

"Reid and Taylor" Interest in hand woven fabric.
What do you know you learn something new everyday. James Bond is looking rather sharp wearing the handmade Kasmir Tweed fabric spoken about in this article. James Bond always has that presence about him though doesn't he? With James Bond you could have him wear anything and he will still manage to be good looking. However, it is nice to see another good change to the Bond series though.
