Keep the olive too.

The olive or Moss green is good.

Second Group of OTR suits are arriving next week. Here is a preview:

Navy Check - 3 Piece in Brushed Wool: $548 CAD.

Is this a medium weight 10-11 oz flannel? Or is it heavier?

I'm assuming, considering you guys are in Canada, that it is probably on the heavier side.

Also, when will this suit be released on the website?

^Brown would be a good color to add IMO.

Yes a dark brown would be great.

This is just a brushed wool, not a flannel. Slightly heavier than our all season fabrics. All seasons are generally 255-265 gsm, this is 275 gsm. Fine for cooler weather, but not like a flannel.

Should be up by tomorrow morning.

Hi Rick,

I have a question about two of your MTM fabrics. Both are white poplin

Product Code: MT-568
Product Code: SWP-01

One has a fabric weight of light-medium and the other is light. Both are 60s cotton. What's the difference between the two fabrics? Which one is less transparent?

SWP-01 is denser and a bit more opaque. Both Egyptian Cotton. Both very good fabrics, cant really go wrong either way.

I also agree - a good olive color would be versatile for many people.

I see some new trousers up on the site, although they are clearly just suit-separate trousers in the same fabrics as the recent suits. I understand that as a matter of economies of scale, you do this, however (and sorry if this has been asked many times before) will there be any true odd trousers this fall/winter, esp. in such fabrics as flannel and tweed? Cheers.

No flannel this year. We only had the same supplier as last year to tap into, and we didn't want to repeat with the same weight. Looking for something a bit heavier.

We have a few brushed wools coming in at over 300 gsm, which is a very nice cloth. I'm headed to a global textile show next month to connect with more fabric suppliers so we can expand our offereings as we grow.

+1 for me as well. Olive is a go to casual color for me. Bonobos Congos, Epaulet Moss and Desert duck canvas are all fantastic olive tone colors if you are looking for some inspiration.

Are all the trousers uploaded for the fall/winter? Just want to see them all before I buy. Any trouser "kickoff" promo code like in the past?

Not all. We have 6 more coming. 4 next week. Those are the brushed houndstooth and self checks. No promos scheduled at the moment.

Great. I will await the their arrival.
