This gentleman's sports coat has just the right heft and texture for a winter's afternoon stroll.
I'd love to know what to search for when looking for something not dissimilar.
This photo was featured on the sartorialist's feed, i believe of Tommaso Capozzoli
Sensational flannel trouser, too.

Harris tweed tends to be on the heftier side compared to a Shetland or Donegal, and the pattern it self looks to be a 'barley corn' which has a dot configuration compared to the more popular twills or herringbones.
