Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread
The usual problem with that color. By the time you want it, you're usually not needing a suit. But weekends, perhaps, or if you live out in the desert? On the east coast, you can wear a lighter tan for business in the summer.- Concordia

Get samples first. Saw the book IRL this morning, and it is a bit fuzzier than the Fine Classics and Botany.- Concordia

Both work well for an urban (i.e., fake) tweed. Perhaps the larger check will stand up to different shirts and ties better.- Concordia

Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread
I gave a length to NsM for trousers, and they gave it back. The seamstresses whom they use couldn’t deal with the strength of the canvas. So I had to use Whitcomb and Shaftesbury instead— which worked just fine.- Concordia

This was the first order from Anderson and Sheppard, 25 years ago. It was doing fine but had been attacked by moths.- Concordia

I just had a more or less final fitting with a replacement blazer from this book today. If I'd known how much I would have liked it, I would have figured out some kind of suit to make from it. There isn't much of that quality in that weight. And fabulous color, too!- Concordia

Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread
I was just talking about a SR tailor about this today. Fox's product line has more or less tripled in the last few years. They have designed and specified all of that, but there's no way that they tripled the number of mills they own in Somerset. So just as Lesser, Smiths, et al, contract...- Concordia

What is the proper fit for leather loafers?
Apart from flaws on any particular sample, Alden does a pretty ruthless paint job on their loafers, especially the #8. Those aren't purple in nature.- Concordia

No, I suppose it is in roughly the same sandbox. Maybe an analogue of the Harrisons Fine Classics.- Concordia
