Last fall, No Man revived a well-loved but long-gone classic, the Minnis 656 houndstooth flannel:

NMWA is getting some SF-grail Minnis 0656 houndstooth flannel made. We will be using a lot of it for a run of Formosa suits for this fall, but there will be some available for other as well. Here are some pics of the cloth itself:

And a couple of suits made up in this fabric belonging to SF legends:

We will be selling it for $115/m including US/Canadian shipping. Delivery will around mid-July. If you are interested, send me a PM or email [email protected].


If there is enough interest, we will do another run. So if you regret passing on this cloth the first go-round, or if you are only discovering this cloth now and want to get your hands on some, now is the time to raise your hand and be counted. Reply in this thread, PM me, or email me at [email protected] and let me know how many meters (in increments of half-meters) you would want.

Do you think this is suiting only, or would it work for a SC as well?

It would work (with all the caveats around grey sport coats, etc...) but is best as a suit IMO

I'd be interested in at least one suit length (4.5/5m).

While this pattern is a fairly dusty grey, it might have further legs if it were explicitly tan.

You mean - cream/tan background with charcoal checks?

:fu:

There is a version that is considered brown on the harrison website-still looks grey but has some brown in it.

I'm also down for 4.5 meters.

3.5 meters

Those of you asking for 4.5, are you doing three pieces?

4.5m can also get you a 2-piece suit + extra pair of trousers
