I've seen various murmurings that this is not the case but I would like to buy one.

I would assume if they are advertising such it probably is. it just may be very low quality wool.

Most of the complaints about Indochino aren't related to fabric quality, but fit and finish.

Not all of them are, at least in past collections, however they mark the poly ones as poly.

Ah ok, I've run across people claiming to have taken them to tailors who told them that this wasn't the case.

I just checked and about half their line up is poly. It could be that they ordered a suit and didn't know it want cotton.

Nah, these were guys who claimed to have ordered a suit advertised as 100% cotton that was actually a polly blend.
