Iona Jacket
The University of Edinburgh
The University of Edinburgh's bespoke tweed is a multifaceted fabric. It combines elements of the city in the base greys and blues—which mimic the changing skies—with green marking the wealth of parks and public spaces. The University's own colours are incorporated through a subtle blue and red check, quietly traced with gold to represent the Golden Boy Statue who stands atop the Old College. Lovat Mill, in the Scottish Borders near Hawick, are responsible for designing this wonderful tweed which complements the establishment's own tartan beautifully.
Style
Our classic Iona cut emanates academic elegance with a timeless appeal. Its carefully tailored silhouette pays homage to the University's distinguished history. Whether you're a proud alumna or simply admire the institution's legacy, this collectors tweed jacket reflects the grace and wisdom synonymous with the University of Edinburgh.
