tweediness
Rough-woven fabric quality
The quality of being tweedy—resembling or associated with tweed fabric and the lifestyle it suggests.
Tweediness evokes the British country gentry: academic, outdoorsy, comfortably rumpled, perhaps a bit stuffy.
There was a deliberate tweediness to his wardrobe, all elbow patches and earth tones.
