Don't know exact details, label simply states 90% Virgin Wool, 10% Cashmere but it's pretty heavy, maybe twice as much as my other suits, I can pretty much only wear it in Autumn and Winter and 10 years after I bought it, it looks as good as new.

Nice. The 10% cash suits I've owned were thick and also wore fairly warm. Made me think of Manton every time I wore them.

Now I stop at 5% cash just for the flannelliness of the cloth. Glad I didn't go for that 100% cash number.

Nice spread, Parker! Perhaps I will also add in odd coats and even trousers at a later time.

Thanks again for taking the time to document this.
