Show Your Suit Cloth

[NORE]

I think it would be interesting in seeing the sum of members' suit cloth in one (or two) shots. I'll start it off with the eight suits currently in my closet:




Top to bottom:

1. Brown donegal
2. Charcoal/light gray stripe flannel
3. Light gray glen w/purple stripe flannel
4. Navy/gray track stripe flannel
5. Charcoal w/alternating gray/purple stripe
6. Black & white houndstooth
7. Navy nailhead
8. Navy/cream track stripe

Let's see the suits you've chosen to keep.

OK, I realize this will take some time for you to lay stuff out and take a pic or two but thins may actually aid in your sartorial evolution. At the very least it may help others find their style.

I implore you, SF, take pics and post them!

I expected something quite different after reading your comments in the Phineas Cole thread.

Should we stipulate you pick only 8 suits? Do SCs count?

Wednesday, it starts...

Is it too early to critique the fit or should we just offer feedback on the cloth?

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.

Great selection. Caruso? Do you find Caruso in the Bay Area? If not, where do you get it?

Which cheap skate tailor or brand produces suits without even sham button holes at the sleeves?

Ralph Lauren in its Polo and Black Label line

You sir have the right above and beyond anyone else to do either.

Two Carusos from Ben at eHaberdasher and the birdseye from the Union Square Nieman Marcus. Caruso have an MTM option with a ton of great fabric books. Turned out pretty well and was a fairly good value...for retail. :/

Great selection.
Caruso?
Do you find Caruso in the Bay Area?
If not, where do you get it?

Methinks I have room for something uber FU and a tan cotton suit. That would be the 10.
