Ha, I have no need for a tail coat. A tweed tux though might be interesting. Just worried about temps ... and tweed trousers in general.- paborden

Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread
Stopped by Panico the other day and saw what I thought was just the coolest thing -- a dinner jacket made out of a black herringbone tweed from the 1970s. Thinking about doing something similar with the attached cloth (only one I could find). Worried about the trousers though ... my one...- paborden

Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread
I also found this story quite helpful. It took me a fair bit of time to develop discernment around cloth so don't rush it. I would add that there are exceptions to the "there is almost nothing in the books anymore worth a dime of time" rule. That has thankfully seemed to be changing with direct...- paborden

Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread
Was hoping someone could guide me on some cloth choices for trousers, from Bisbane Moss, since their weights are a little tricky. 1) Summer weight cotton 2) Moleskin (they have about 4 different weights) for winter 3) Narrow wale cord (a la what Anglo Italian offers). Again they have a ton of...- paborden

Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread
So, just got done watching Vengeance, and found the general aesthetic they put Ashton Kutcher's character in quite inspiring, moreso now that I'm spending more time in Texas. Love the cream pinstripe and would love to find something like that in linen? Anyone seen anything? A white suit is...- paborden

Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread
I may have asked this before, but I'll ask again since the hunt continues -- has anyone found an extremely light, dusty pink linen? Solid, no herringbone, just a plain light pink linen. Can't find this anywhere. Ideally suitable for trousers as well. I do understand why such a thing would not be...- paborden
