Hi Guys,

Here are some fabrics that have been collecting dust for a while so I figure no need to keep them hanging around for now. Really nice stuff and some I may have made up down the line, but just have my tailor get from the mill. We'll see. Any questions let me know.

20% discount for anyone who takes all the fabrics in one fell swoop!

From top left moving clockwise:

Brisbane Moss - Milton Panama weave. Feels like a cotton canvas of sorts. 11oz and 3.5 meters. Color is essentially darker than Air Force Blue and lighter than Navy. Should make for a nice casual Summer suit. Here's another previous picture (disregard the gray). $70 shipped CONUS. SOLD

Holland & Sherry - Crispaire Fresco book. 11oz and 3 meters. This fabric is now discontinued. A nice dolphin blue color with orange and burgundy stripes. Unique and somewhat Mad Men / Pete Campbell-ish in color. $185 shipped CONUS.

Here's a closeup shot of the Holland & Sherry fabric as made up by yfyf:

700


Harrisons - Moonbeam. 11oz and 2.5 meters. A medium chocolate brown with navy windowpane. The fabric is made of lambswool and angoran and is incredibly soft and stretchy and comfortable when made up. $85 shipped CONUS. SOLD

Fox Flannel - 11oz and 4 meters. My personal favorite grey POW due to the blue overchecks mixed with red vertical stripes along the boxes. Here's an additional picture below. $125 shipped CONUS. SOLD

Minnis - #0500 Fresco - 3.5 meters. I'll see how the LL Piuma travel cloth comes out and if not to my satisfaction will just re-order this from my tailor and have it made up. There is a mark on one part of the fabric, but the tailor should easily be able to cut around it. $160 shipped CONUS. SOLD

Damn I am too late!


Actually, the Minnis Fresco is also still available. So it's that and the H&S Crispaire Fresco still available as of now.

How big is the mark on the Fresco?


Not big at all. A bit smaller than one's pinky nail. The J&J Minnis Fresco just sold though. Only the Holland & Sherry Crispaire Fresco remains.

Thanks for the reply. I was, sadly, interested in the Minnis.
