Reda has an ample book of wool shirtings:

Saw the book today, IRL. Ordered two— it is a LOT more expensive than cotton. But if it doesn’t require professional laundering and lasts even a few more weeks than regular cotton, it should pay for itself. In my twisted little brain…

Below are some direct comparison shots in my closet (i.e. under a florescent light), I'd say its confirmed...

Honestly, if we could get up enough orders I'd like to do another run in the original summer tweed shade. Its my favorite spring/summer outfit and it sadly no longer fits. I've asked DWW on more than one occasion if he plans to do another run and every time he's said he didn't have any other plans, so I don't quite feel like its undercutting him...

Yeah I think those are appreciably different based on your photos.

I'm all in on another run. I think we could probably drum up interest. Maybe I'll ask for the minimums from Bennett Silks... are you up for checking with Derek whether he is okay with us running with it? I suspect he would be as long as there is no profit involved.
