Magee jackets at Livingston range from softly constructed Donegal tweed to more traditional classic-fit sports jackets. The Easky, Ennis and Clady all use wool cloth, but the construction, pattern and overall feel are different. This guide compares the current styles so you can decide which direction suits your wardrobe.
At a glance: Easky vs Ennis vs Clady
| Style | Cloth and pattern | Construction / fit | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Easky | 100% wool Donegal tweed, brown-and-black herringbone with coloured flecks | Unconstructed finish | Relaxed smart-casual layering |
| Ennis | 100% wool, moss green and brown windowpane | Classic fit, two-button front and twin vents | A traditional checked sports-jacket look |
| Clady | 100% wool Donegal tweed with a flecked texture | Classic fit, two-button front and side vents | Traditional Donegal tweed tailoring |
Magee Easky: the softer, unconstructed option
The current Easky uses 100% wool Donegal tweed in a brown-and-black herringbone with colourful flecks. Its defining feature is the unconstructed finish, which gives the jacket a softer, less rigid feel than more formal tailoring.
That makes it an easy option with chinos, wool trousers or dark denim, especially when you want the texture of Donegal tweed without a very structured silhouette.
Magee Ennis: classic fit with a stronger check
The Ennis is the more conventionally tailored option in the current range. The moss green and brown windowpane version uses a 100% wool outer, a classic fit, two-button single-breasted front, straight flap pockets and twin side vents.
There is also a blue broken-check Ennis with the same classic-fit direction. Choose the Ennis when you want a clearer checked pattern and a traditional sports-jacket shape.
Magee Clady: classic Donegal tweed character
The current Clady is a classic-fit pure-wool Donegal tweed blazer. Its flecked texture, two-button front and side vents give it a traditional shape, making it a useful bridge between country dressing and smarter everyday outfits.
It works particularly well with flannel trousers, chinos or dark denim, allowing the Donegal texture to remain the main feature of the outfit.
Which Magee jacket should you choose?
- Choose Easky if you prefer a softer, unconstructed jacket and a relaxed herringbone Donegal cloth.
- Choose Ennis if you want a classic fit with a stronger windowpane or broken-check pattern.
- Choose Clady if you want a classic-fit blazer with the distinctive flecked character of Donegal tweed.
How should a Magee tweed jacket fit?
Whatever the model, start with the shoulders and collar. The shoulder line should sit cleanly, the collar should remain close to the shirt collar and the jacket should fasten without obvious pulling. Sleeve and jacket length can then be judged once the upper body is sitting correctly.

How to wear a Magee tweed jacket
Keep the rest of the outfit quieter when the tweed has a strong check or coloured fleck. Plain shirts, fine knitwear, chinos, cords, moleskins and wool trousers all give the jacket room to do the visual work. For more combinations, see our how to wear a tweed jacket guide.
