...A plain herringbone in brown ,or in a green and brown mix, from John G. Hardy's Alsport book (16 oz and up). Pretty indestructible and goes with everything.

Brown herringbone Harris tweed.
I prefer patterns, they are more interesting.

Kolecho -- I have a couple pieces of old brown harris tweed that are now being made into jackets. Personally, I cant think of a more handsome sport jacket.

Hugh Laurie wears a nice brown Harris tweed 3pc suit (with some lovely brogues) in the "Bertie and Jeeves" series.
