I went to my local (Osaka) custom tailor today to order up a new summer suit.
I have narrowed it down to some similar tropical weight super 100's in pure wool (no mohair, cashmere, etc.) by
Loro Piana
Scabal
Dunhill
I know this is limited information but which would you choose? Is it possible to say that one is better than another simply based on name?
Just for conversation sake: I went for 2.5 button, with vest, flat front pants, double vented. Osaka prices are pretty good these days- around 650US. It is MTM but they will do multiple revisions if you aren't satisfied. Also, they actually do all of the work here in Osaka (as opposed to most places that have the work done in China, etc.)
Any insights appreciated. Thanks.
