Has anyone here had a suit made any of the following:

Summer Target;
#375106
#290025

or a Super 100s (don't recall the book, but is was 310g)
#50JC105?

I am in the "process of elimination" as I started with about 10 options for a blue suit. Looking for input.

I have tried the Summer Target book and I'm pretty sure I'v ealso tried the Super 100s you reference.

The Summer Target doesn't hold up that well and the sheen isn't that nice, as sheens go. But what really bothers me is that it's a summer suit (for me), but the weave is a typical tight worsted and so it wears hot.

The Super 100s that I'm speaking of is porous, has a soft hand, and has a nice matte finish. I like it.
