Tweed Dog Harnesses by the weavers of Harris Tweed are bringing Britain’s famous much loved fabric back from the brink of extinction. The industry has slowly been declining since the 1970s. In 2006 this iconic British fabric made a sudden dive when Brian Haggas made the decision to cut out thousands of patterns and replace them with four drab designs.
He also began manufacturing in China to try to encourage mass production. But independent mills banded together to market Harris Tweed as a luxury product for high-end fashion. A long line of movements including the hipster, Indie culture and preppies have adopted tweed as part of their wardrobe.
The Return of Tweed Dog Harnesses
This periodic “return to tweed” not only helps keep the tradition of tweed alive, but also serves to inject new life and energy into this cloth. You can now bring this iconic piece of British cloth into your dogs wardrobe.
We have two styles of tweed harness the Balmoral cheek and a slate tweed. Both of the soft harnesses are a classic choice for your dog. The tweed has been expertly crafted in Yorkshire woollen mills since 1837. The harnesses have a ring attached to the back to enable you to easily clip your lead on.
