The better question is: Would you even care?

I own this one and bought it specifically because it’s a great year-round color. Because of the blend in the fabric it doesn’t look like a linen jacket (in terms of wrinkles) so it’ll look great in the winter. It breathes a lot so it just won’t be particularly warm in the snow, but if you run hot, then it’s a no brainer - get it.


Thanks a lot guys!

How do you guys feel about patch pockets on double breasted suits?
I am thinking about going with the MTO program for a navy hopsack fabric in double breasted setting. I'm a short guy, so I don't know if the MTO allows for 4 buttons instead of the usual 6 button placement in a double breasted jacket.
I'm guessing waistcoat is a mandatory option for MTO program?

Took delivery of the Stone covert twills today. Soft hand and the colour is not nearly as cream as they appear on the website. Definitely closer to a grey, or light taupe. They’ll pair well with the Moon tweed I just received. View attachment 1243398 View attachment 1243399
I actually still haven't received a shipping confirmation or anything like that, and I ordered the last Thursday when they dropped. Maybe it's because I'm in the States right now rather than back in Toronto? All I know is I'm impatient for these to get here, haha!

Any other U.S. people received a shipping confirmation or the goods yet? Or should I shoot an email to CS?

What makes you think a waistcoat is mandatory?

Figured it out – I also ordered the Fox checked jacket as well, and that won't ship till Oct 14, so they were hoping to ship them all at once. Al sorted out with CS, and they'l be shipping out the trousers first.

Major props to my guy Amit and the CS team for being so quick with a solution!
