Yes, same source. For something like £35 total including shipping to Russia.
It is no longer available, as other single-width fabrics that were offered at £5/m.

Banis,
I like the first two. Where did you get the red check tweed? Same source?

I am fairly certain bookster has the brown herringbone under their Harris tweeds.

Saw these jackets on Drake's diary page...stunning!!

^^ I just read that too, I wonder what fabric the first two jackets are made of. Moss green looks especially nice.

Just received my "new to me" jacket yesterday...Brothers Brothers Herringbone for $35 shipped off Ebay. The jacket is in mint condition with the pockets still sewn together and it fits perfectly, just needs to have the sleeves taken up about 2 inches. I'm not sure if its tweed or not since the label says, "Made in the USA of imported fabric". Feels like tweed though. I'm extremely proud of my purchase!!

Great thread guys; keep em coming.

Does anyone here have an opinion or experience with J. Crew tweed? Tried this one on in the shop the other day and liked the fabric and the ludlow fit. Apparently the tweed is from the Abraham Moon mill in Yorkshire but the jacket is made in China. Just haven't seen many tweed jackets with a non-boxy fit in that price range (listed at $300, but the current 25% off promotion - code:LOVEFALL - takes it down to ~$220 with free shipping).

Bill Cunningham hits the Tweed Run with pix that are best in the slideshow with his customary enthusiastic voiceover.

I'm sure I'll catch grief for this, but I find her very pretty. Minnie Driver does it for me too, so maybe I just like that type of face.
