Product features

There are two rows of easy-to-use snap buttons down the front allowing for a more comfortable fit. It is a sleeveless coat so your dog can walk and run naturally without constraints. It has been designed “on dogs” to suit their shape and the armhole is cut slightly larger for proper leg movement, thus making it also easy to put on and take off.

The outer coat is n 100% Harris Tweed® wool, imported from an authorised dealer in Scotland.  Wool is a natural fabric that keeps you warm and maintains body heat, it is hypoallergenic, mildew resistant and perfect for all pets.

However, when in contact with the fur of some dogs like Poodles, Maltese, Yorkshire Terriers and other long- haired dogs, wool is likely to matt or knot your pet’s fur. For this reason, the inner lining is in 100% cotton, in a unique, colourful paisley pattern designed by us. Cotton is a natural fabric which is soft and breathable making it perfect for every type of dog fur.  There is a martingale on the back for decoration.

This coat does not have the slit on the back for the harness.

Fabrics and accessories

Inner lining cotton and buttons from Italy; outer wool from Scotland.

 Fun Fact

Harris Tweed® wool is one of the most sought-after wool textiles in the world. It comes from the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, so we obviously named our product in honour of this island! It’s a natural product that can only be handwoven by the local islanders of the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. Anything else is not original!

This wool was originally used by farmers to protect themselves from the harsh weather conditions of Scotland. It soon became so popular that it was used as a form of payment, and much later it sparked the Harris Tweed Act of 1993. Today it is a symbol of quality, class and style.

PRODUCT CARE

To retain shape and quality, we recommend professional dry-cleaning at a low temperature only.

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR DOG

• Put your pet in a standing position (see diagram);
• Take a seamstress measuring tape;
• Measure the length of back (A) from the shoulder blades, (slightly below the neck/nape of the neck) to just before the tail;
• Next the chest circumference (B): measure from just below the shoulder blades, and go right round to reach the other side to meet the starting position. This is just above the rib-cage.
