Lately, I've seen more and more escorial RTW pieces cropping up. Has anyone here had experience with these? I was curious about how it wears and how happy you have been with your purchases.
I know what escorial is and that it comes in several grades (roughly 18 down to 12 microns, if memory serves) but have no personal experience with it. Does it have similar "wear" characteristics to super-180s or fabric like that, which has never struck me as very practical (at least for myself, as I wear clothes pretty actively)?
Thanks!
PS: Because a couple of people asked and the "wear" part is tangentially related at least...yes, I still wear my vicuna coats and sportcoats, and they have turned out to be quite durable, like a nice heavy cashmere.
