From County Donegal
County Donegal occupies Ireland's rugged northwest, where mountains, Atlantic coastline, islands, and windswept countryside have shaped a distinctive tradition of wool, tweed, and handcrafted goods.
Donegal tweed reflects that landscape in its natural colors, rich textures, and distinctive patterns. The tradition remains closely connected to the people and places of the county, where skilled makers continue to work with natural fabrics and time-honored techniques.
This cap carries a little of that Donegal character — a piece of Irish craftsmanship made in the heart of the county where its story belongs.
