Sigh. The search continues then.

If anyone knows of a brown glenplaid with green windowpane, get at me!

I was initially looking for a brown one (without overcheck).

No clue - Ed could probably fill in the details.

Yup - that's the plan. Unless you want to pass those pants on to me.

Some Acorn shirtings I received last week, two for the office, one for a summer OCBD. I'm still debating on barrel or French cuffs for the stripes. Might go one each way.

And a horrible picture of a lovely Hardy SC swatch, this order will go out this week.

EDIT: picture resize

H-Lesser Mania...two really really hearty wools, a real hearty wool, and a hearty Shepherd's check The grey herringbone and blue donegal are already going into three piece suits, to NOBD (break up and wear as separates.

Grey Twill and Shep check at home with me impatiently waiting to be made into something beautiful. the Twill will be a similar three piece and the SC will be a sportcoat.

Pants will be a bit fuller with a higher rise compared to the pattern he usually cuts me.

Have you had success ordering from Lesser directly? When I emailed David recently he referred me to Harrisons and Jodek.

Rob - a zoomed out pic of the shep's check please.

Trini-

Will get that pic to you in a bit...its way more beige than it is yellow, as it appears there.

As far as the order, I'll pm you.
