Made in Ireland

Handmade in Belfast by one of our sewists.
Tweed from Ardara

Donegal tweed, from the Atlantic edge of Ireland.
A stand collar

Shaped close through the waist.
Lined in Irish linen

Black linen inside, beetled at Upperlands until it shines.

Made to be handed on

Some jackets outlive the people who bought them. This one was cut for that. From the front it says very little. The rest is for later.

A new silhouette

Close through the waist. A stand collar. A line of shell buttons. Familiar at a glance, and not quite what you expect.

“I wanted the outside to be the jacket you’d recognise, classic brown Donegal tweed, then shape it so it feels like ours.”

Amy Anderson, Creative Director

The lining

The surprise is
on the inside.

Open the jacket and something catches the light.

Inside is our Loinnir linen, black Irish linen beetled until it sparkles. Loinnir is an Irish word for sparkle.

The cloth is taken to Upperlands, to the last beetling mill in the world, and beaten under wooden hammers until it begins to shine. It is a craft that very nearly disappeared. One man still keeps the old way alive. Our part is to make it modern.

You will know it is there. Everyone else only catches a glimpse.

Kept for Good

The Inheritance family

A stand collar. A tailored waist. A front that falls away below the last button. One shape, more than one cloth.

Shop Kept for Good

Donegal tweed.
Woven in Ardara.

Woven on the Atlantic edge of Ireland, by a family who have done it for six generations. The yarn is spun and dyed close to the loom, and the colours come from what surrounds it: the sea, the hills, the changing sky.

Here, a classic dark brown: the tweed you would recognise, in a shape you might not expect. Come closer and other colours surface, flecks spun into the yarn long before it meets the loom.

One pair of hands,
start to finish.

Every piece is cut and sewn in Belfast by one of our sewists, who sees it through from the first cut to the last stitch.

We keep our making close to home on purpose. Belfast was once the linen capital of the world, and the skills that built it are rare now. Making here is how we keep them alive.

Meet the cloth and the craft

The designer Amy Anderson

Kindred began with a photograph: Amy’s grandmother Winnie, at work in a linen mill.

Amy is our co-founder and Creative Director. She takes cloth with a long memory and asks it to do something new: a bow where you would not look for one, a sleeve that holds its shape, a jacket with a secret inside.
