Before reviewing this jacket, I must mention how wonderful and helpful Gifts of Ireland were with my order. The jacket sold out and was no longer available several times, but whenever I emailed the company I received a quick reply to answer all of my questions regarding when it would be back in stock. Ultimately, I was able to get my hands on the “wool tweed walking jacket.” Now for the review;
Without being a “tailored” cut, the jacket is neither slim fit nor baggy. It fits very well. The length is not too long nor too short; it comes just past the waist. The herringbone is a medium pattern in size; noticeable that it’s herringbone but not distracting in any way. Make no mistake, this tweed is of the highest quality. The cuffs have a snap button closure offering two different options for either a looser or tighter fit. The inside has a very nice smooth black quilted pattern which makes it easy to slip on and off. The jacket has some rather large exterior pockets, but these are hidden with the clever cut of the fabric seams. Easily accessible, but never in the way and never taking away from the clean look of the jacket. An additional left breast interior pocket reveals a zippered closure which is always a nice option to secure a valuable. A beautiful small leather etched patch adorns a spot between the shoulder blades which reads, “Emerald Isle weaving.” Below this text, a small shamrock as a reminder that this garment was hand crafted in Ireland.
Now if you don’t know anything about Irish tweed, I highly suggest you do some research so that you can truly appreciate this aspect of Irelands heritage passed down from generation to generation.
I 100% recommend purchasing this jacket and I encourage you to avoid buying a similar style or type from somewhere else. This jacket is authentic, excellently crafted and will be sure to keep you warm whenever you’re in need to go out into the elements. Slainté

Very well made, quality product. Sturdy and simple design.
I'd purchase again.

Delicate looking but the sturdy quality of cannamara marble. Great gift!
Fast processing and shipping. Thank you!

Very satisfied with product, description, quality, and appearance are spot on! Fast processing and shipping a plus.
I would order from this business again and highly recommend.

As advertised, after ordering they asked a few questions about my preferences. Since they are hand made and all different, they took my preferences into account and sent me a few pictures of those they thought I might like. I made my choice and it arrived surprisingly fast, as I live in the US and it was shipped from Ireland.

The only warning I would give would be that you might want to consider a rubber tip for it. The bare wood end slipped a bit on wooden floors. I was very lucky in that the diameter of mine was almost exactly 3/4 inch, which is a standard size for replacement cane tips. They don't cost much and the rubber replacement tip looks good and fit very (VERY!) tightly and securely. The folks at Gifts of Ireland were very helpful with me, so they might have suggestions for a tip if you feel you need one. I just didn't to ask before mine arrived.

I simply love my Breaffy Ladies Aran Cardigan, which reminds me of that green-breasted isle wrapped in myth and mist, where the land sings in ancient tongues and the wind tells stories no book can bind. Eire is a harp strung with laughter and longing, each string a county, each note a memory. I love it.

Nice, solid ring. Feels very nice to wear!

This hat is beautiful, well made, warm - I want to wear it all the time.

The sweater is beautiful, comfortable, and well made. Fits perfectly too!

Beautiful, well-made, lightweight but warm. Highly recommend!

An elegant, simple design of connemara marble. Beautiful and rich appearance.

I am happy with the quality of the product and the ease of buying and shipping. The Belleek piece is a delicate well-painted representation. It will be well received as a gift.

I ordered these for my entire family for Christmas. They arrived on time and were just beautiful. Everyone loved them!

Die Bestellung und der Versand lief reibungslos und es vielen keine zusätzliche Kosten an. Der Hut sitzt gut auf meinen Kopf und die Qualität ist auch typisch irisch. Zum Glück gibt es keine richtige Feder am Hut, sondern nur einen kleines Patch, was aber nicht auffällt. Ich freue mich auf die ersten wärmeren Frühlingstage um Ihn dann zu tragen. Vielen Dank!
