I really like the old SG Chambray stuff. Like a more rustic Oxford cloth. That may lead to the question of why not just make it easy and go for a traditional Oxford cloth as the one shirt fabric? That's what I might do. But then again,...

It was a tobacco brown fresco fabric I organized as a custom run from Minnis about a year ago. It's in their standard 12/13oz weight just in a new color. Turned out well and most people seem to like it.

I definitely plan on doing a DB suit in birdseye at some point. Likely navy. I know that Dugdale has a great one in their Royal Classics book as seen below. Look forward to seeing the Golden Bale in person sometime.

I like how on my Steed jackets the shoulder seam sneaks juuust over the edge of my shoulder for a little extension. I think it makes the jacket a bit more dramatic and balanced. I like how the shoulder seam and sleeve are nicely lined up...

Thanks! I forgot that Harrison's was dealing with them now.

Are there photos of this Golden Bale book online anywhere?

Yep.
