Manton I like that suit fabric. Is the pic representative of the color IRL?

Yeah, it's close. That one never photographs quit right.

Least favorite so far Mike, if only because I've come to hate patch breast pockets

If I had this one to do over again, I would get it welt+flap. The cloth is really too crisp for patch. Though the summery sheen makes patch tolerable.

Some combos:

very nice ... i love greys.

Manton said:
Suit=wool-mohair, shirt=linen-cotton, tie=linen-silk, square=silk

lots of depth ... particularly caused by the tie/shirt/suit color & texture play

I used to love this shirt, but now I'm afraid it needs to be culled. Interested in opinions on its place on the good taste spectrum.

+1 with NOBD ... i say cull ... just because the collar points are short and it comes off as more of a casual shirt.

Chris - tie pattern could be a little different (less dots) to stand out better against the shirt. also a little more textural play would be great.

The tie is woven and the check in the shirt is a fairy pronounced texture.

edit: snuck one more in

Digging the cloth, Gaz. Source?

Baron · Aug 3, 2012

So much good stuff in this thread.

-Love that wool mohair cloth in Manton's suit.

-Nii, like most of that a lot, with the notable exception of that camel jacketed one

-Gaz, love that nailhead, great lapels, nice simple combination.

Old ones:

Are these fused collars? If so, the collars contain a very light inner lining, correct? They look great.
