    Suit Fabric Prices

    Very nice Carl as always. You cleared up a lot of my concerns. Further: What quality of fabric and where would mid range ($900) OTR Boss suit fabrics be coming from? With regard to a 30m minimum order from Albini or a comparable distributor, how much is typical for this volume in comparison...

    Poll - How many MTM suits do you own?
