Harrisons, Fox Bros. and J&J Minnis and John G Hardy Cloth Sale (Up to 50% off)

[AndrewRogers]

It's been a while in the making, but here we go.

Photographs are finally up of what I have of Harrisons' and Porter & Harding's tailoring bunches.

See them here at http://www.flickr.com/photos/britishcloth/sets/

Apologies if the same cloth appears a few times over.

Colours
The colours are spot on so if you would like to order anything or have any questions about any particular piece of cloth, such as weight or suitability, just send me an e-mail at britishclothsales@gmail.com This is better than PMs, although I will accept those, as we both end up with a record of what has happened and they are much easier to edit.

Shipping
Shipping will be by UPS and charged on a case-by-case basis. Prices are as follows for now and are expressed in GBP so as to avoid any changes later on to account for exchange rates. If there is any change, it will be on Harrisons' behalf, not mine or because of the value of, say, the USD.

Two things :-)

First, a member here is having a custom order put through with Fox Bros. and needs only 15 metres of orders for it to go ahead. The cost would be 45 GBP per metre plus shipping from Fox Bros. These are direct prices with no mark up from the mill. The cloth ships from the mill and you can add any cloth you have seen here for sale from their stock-suppored line, if you are interested. This would make shipping a bit more economical :-)

If you are interested, you can find more information here http://www.cutterandtailor.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=192&st=0&gopid=1877&#entry1877

The cloth is looks like this



Second!

Okay, HFW is back. HFW is John G Hardy and J&J Minnis. See the following site for details and some (dark) pictures.

http://www.hfwltd.com/

Prices are per metre and are in GBP. Savings are between 30% and 50% off. There is also a bit of a saving in shipping costs doing things this way rather than through the web-shop.

Prices are conditional upon continued support, so please, gang, keep up the orders.

NO TIME WASTERS PLEASE. I just can't be bothered with them any more and I get my fair share. HFW and I are not here to indulge in your fantasies of one day getting something made up that you really have no intention of carrying out.

Certainly, and if you have any doubts, I am more than happy to take more photographs for you. Just e-mail me and let me know what exactly it is you would like.

Thanks,
Andrew :-)

Ok, now I officially hate you for posting this threats to my savings plan.
And I hate my new tailor, I'm waiting for the first fitting to decide if I can go on with him or keep on searching.

just a joke of course.

[whnay.]

This is a great resource - can't wait for the Fox flannels.

2.5 metre for sportcoat?

4.0 metre for a suit?

If your chest is small (height is not so much the issue here, though it does make a difference) 2m can be enough, but 2.5 is always safest if you're taking it yourself to a tailor. Similarly, 3.5 can often be enough for smaller people but 4 is best. I have a 34" chest (short and thin) and have been asked only for 2m and sometimes for 2.5, depending on the cloth and the tailor. Of course, I'm happy to take any orders in 0.5m increments.

If you click on the 'all sizes' button for any cloth, it will give you a larger shot, but I can take some photographs from different angles if you like. Let me know.

WRT Breanish, the best thing to do is contact them directly at christina at breanishtweed.co.uk and just let her know Andrew Rogers sent you. View their Picasa album here http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/Breanish.Tweed/CurrentBreanishTweedStock?authkey=Gv1sRgCICv_OrSzsv3kAE&feat=email#

Please go to the following site and look for anything tagged as linen http://www.flickr.com/photos/britishcloth/sets/72157619629018578/

Also you can actually search my Flickr account using key words, so also try linen there.
