Sport coat GMTO project - VOTE FOR YOUR FAVORITES (i.e. ALL THE ONES YOU LIKE)

Here are a few ideas taken from bunches we have here. I think that we could do two parallel projects actually for those who would prefer a heavier/tweed cloth and for those looking for a lighter one.

Simple hopsack less-than-navy blue



Lightweight wool/silk/linen check



Uber-versatile light grey tweed hopsack (what I'm wearing today)







Copper brown herringbone mid-weight tweed



Navy/rust windowpane



Marled navy herringbone flannel



Grey/blue small check flannel



Blue/caramel triple check heavy tweed



Lightweight gunchecks



Green/brown quadruple check mid-weight tweed



Mid-weight worsted check tweed



Mid-weight soft finish blue with brown windowpane


Mid-weight soft finish navy with brown/powder blue windowpane



Blue herringbone tweed with rust pane



Blue herringbone mid-weight tweed



Another blue/caramel triple check heavy tweed (smaller scale check)



Light brown/grey mid-weight Donegal Tweed



Light navy/charcoal mid-weight Donegal Tweed



Soft mid-weight lambswool/angora - light grey with brown/cream pane



Soft mid-weight lambswool/angora - brown with navy pane



Soft mid-weight lambswool/angora - navy with rust double pane (similar to my Dormeuil Scottie Derby but without the baby blue lines)




1000




Lighter weight brown plaid with blue overcheck



Lighter weight navy/brown/burgundy check (similar colors to my Woodhouse jacket, different check scale)




1000



Very soft brown & cream mid weight wool/cashmere check



Very soft brown & grey mid weight wool/cashmere check



Very soft brown, blue & grey mid weight wool/cashmere check with rust overcheck



Very soft brown & grey mid weight wool/cashmere plaid with brown overcheck



Very soft brown & cream mid weight wool/cashmere houndstooth with blue overcheck



Lightweight hemp/silk/cashmere plaid - blue with brown overcheck



Lightweight hemp/silk/cashmere plaid - brown with blue overcheck



Large scale brown glenplaid tweed with navy overcheck

the first 2 surely can;t be the same as the 3rd. Which is this for? I like the brown much more than the blue

I probably won't get involved with the order but there are so many cloths there I want to vote anyway.

Is it possible to purchase a few meters of fabric from you if the selection we chose doesn't get picked?

Nobody's loving the lightweight gunchecks?

I like the maroon/grey/cream one a lot. But there's clearly a preference on SF for heavier weight cloth

For some of them (when we have an account with the mill/merchant), maybe. For many others, not really.

It's the same color on the three pictures - the 3rd one is closer to true color
