The Elegant Man:
Quote:
Its name derives from the heirs to the English throne who, from the days of Edward VII, often wore garments made of this fabric.
Weave: twill weave. A milled cloth obtained from carded yarns.
Weight: 13-16 ounces
Uses: jackets, suits and pants.
Characteristics: Saxony, so-callled because it was originally woven with wools from Saxony, should be soft to the touch, with very little nap. It is onrmally in a glen check design. Garments made of this material, and those made of flannel, pose problems because htey must rest and thus cannot be worn over long periods of time.
