don't trust your computer monitor. It usually tells lie.
Go to see real one in a shop.

Jeezus. Are you for real? Just go to your tailor's shop and look around. If you've never ordered bespoke before, it's unlikely you'll need to venture outside his selection to be satisfied.

well maybe you shouldn't be buying bespoke. flipping through books in a hot fabric room is part of the joy.

Many cloths appear similar in pattern and color; they are distinguished by feel, body, wearabilty, durability, etc. These are things you need to assess in person or trust your tailor to assess for you (which I heartily recommend).

i'm just surprised AB has to have someone explain this to him. or maybe I shouldn't be surprised.

Looking online for cloth = waste of time, but I do agree if you are going to be perusing cloth in your underwear it is best to do this at home, not at the tailors.

I'm pretty sure he's some sort of super-intelligent web-bot sent from the future to destroy Styleforum.

Is there an offline website to see wool fabrics for sport coats?

Check out the Scabal website. They have nice pictures of pretty much all of their cloth.

Being new at picking cloth from swatches you would be better off looking thru the WAYWT thread or magazines for ideas of what you would like. Take the picture to the tailor and ask if he can find something similar. Better use of your time and easier for you to see the cloth in jacket form.
