On a side street in the flea market of Athens, I bumped into Haris Iordanis. Well, actually no. I stepped into his clothing store.

Haris specializes in t-shirts which he designs. They are all handcrafted in Greece, locally woven, ecologically dyed in Saloniki.

I immediately thought of “Harris Tweeds” which are made from wool, not cotton, and are hand crafted in the Outer Hebrides. It’s a good thing that Haris calls his business “Fasoli Clothing”.

After all, who would want to get sued by the Outer Hebrides?

The address is Normanou 6, Monastiraki, Athens. His website is here.

If you drop by, tell him I sent you. I won’t make a penny, but I’ll be delighted.

I’m a great believer in the local artisans here. Haris is proud to be one!
