Tweed for Classic and Vintage Vehicles

Tweed is an excellent choice for restoring or enhancing the interior of older and classic cars. Its timeless texture and natural warmth perfectly align with the design aesthetics of vehicles from bygone eras. Whether you’re working on a vintage restoration or simply want to retain the original character of your car, tweed helps maintain the authenticity and style of the period.

For cars from the mid-20th century or earlier, tweed is a historically accurate material that blends seamlessly with the original look. From herringbone to checked patterns, tweed was widely used in classic car interiors, making it the perfect option for maintaining the vehicle’s heritage while adding modern comfort and durability.
