About Magee: Magee 1866 is a fifth-generation family firm from Donegal in Ireland, weaving Donegal tweed and tailoring country clothing since 1866. We stock Magee men’s jackets, coats and waistcoats in UK sizing, with classic and tailored fits depending on the style. A solid choice if you want a hard-wearing tweed or wool outer layer built to last.
This is Magee’s own classic-fit chart for suits and jackets, sized by UK chest. Classic fit is the roomier cut through the chest and arm; tailored fit uses the same chest measurement on the sizes it offers, with a slightly shorter sleeve, and shirts have their own collar, chest and waist chart. Sizes on our site come and go with stock.

A distinctive flecked woollen cloth woven in County Donegal, Ireland, and Magee’s signature material since 1866.
Magee’s roomier cut through the chest, waist and arms. Designed for a relaxed, traditional silhouette and comfortable layering over a shirt or knit.
Magee labels most jackets as true to scale, but we find it depends on the cut and how you like your outerwear to sit. Classic fit gives more room through the chest; tailored fit is neater. We would always check the chest measurement on the product page rather than guess from your usual jacket size.
Classic fit is roomier through the chest, waist and arms and suits a more traditional, relaxed line. Tailored fit is trimmed through the body without being tight, and works well if you prefer a neater silhouette. The fit is always named on the product listing.
Some customers size up in tweed blazers, particularly if they are between sizes or want room for a thicker knit underneath. We would measure your chest and compare it to Magee’s size chart before ordering, and pop in if you would like a second opinion.
Most Magee tweed jackets are dry clean only. For day-to-day care, brush off surface dirt when the fabric is dry and hang the jacket on a shaped hanger. A little airing between wears goes a long way with a natural wool cloth.
The R stands for regular sleeve length, the standard arm on Magee jackets. Some styles also come in S (short) or L (long), so it is worth checking if you have longer or shorter arms.
Donegal tweed is a wool cloth and will cope with a light shower, but it is not a waterproof coat. We would treat it like any good wool jacket: let it dry naturally if it gets damp, then brush it down once dry.
