Hello all,
I just stepped into a local tailor and got a price on a fabric I liked for a 3 piece tux. The fabric was from British woolens in Montreal and is a super 160 in black.
I called British woolens and found out they stock fabric from Reda in Italy and from a textile mill in China. From what I gather, the fabric I chose is from china.
My question is, would it be advisable to go down to a super 130 from Reda or stay with the super 160? Or should I avoid both? What quality can I expect?
From my admittedly novice touch, the super 160 feels better an compares favorably to some of the samples I felt from coppley and samuelsohn.
Thanks in advance.
