Hey Guys,

I, among others I am sure, missed the initial run for a NMWA x Formosa sportcoat. Well, I know a while back that Greg mentioned that this all was not really time sensitive. So, if we can get another 8 people to commit, we can get the ball rolling on another.

I am putting myself down, at the outset.

As for fabric, I would like something lighter weight. I was thinking about this:

1000


I am definitely flexible. My only requirement is that it is not too heavy. I just have no need for a 16oz Flannel.

Send me a PM, or post here, and let's get this started!

Same fabric, different pic.

400


Would also be interested if anyone wanted a worsted navy chalkstripe suit, or a light oats-color linen jacket.

If the Fresco suit isn't working out, then the 2059 is a veritable alternative, just can't do both. I'll keep my eyes on this thread.
(already have the burgundy stripe Inglese shirt (as pictured here?) for it)

Well I will not do the tobacco fresco, since I recently purchased that tobacco linen. But if the fresco fizzles out, which it might, considering the logistical issues, I think this SC would be a solid alternative.

I am definitely in for the above fabric.

I saw Greg's sportscoat and it was stellar.

The navy Fox Flannel was getting love back when this first began. What about now?

I am pretty sure the Fox Flannel is already in "production."
