It's highly considered to be THE best cotton in the world. Yearly production only makes up 0.04% of the worlds cotton supply. It's the longest staple length of any species of cotton resulting in stronger, smoother and softer fabrics. David & John Anderson is the luxury division of the Albini ground, who also own Thomas Mason. This is better than Thomas Mason. You can barely get Thomas Mason at $160 USD. Go on, Live like a King.

Rick, any update on the sea island shirts?

I'm really loving the Botto Giuseppe mint green flannel, but would like it in a neapolitan cut.
Will it ever be available in MTM?

Because the factory and the people who are manufacturing your clothing aren't as clean as you would hope?

THE MORE YOU KNOW

I read the article. Did not convince me. I’ve never experienced any of that but I’m not part of his hypochondriac, dip everything in hand sanitizer generation.

Other than chemicals... Having lived in China, soap and toilet paper is not an abundant commodity.

Did a #2? Maybe a rinse with water is all the hands need! Or........ maybe a rinse with air and a wipe on the clothes is sufficient...

I've noticed that you often combine a light SC with medium/dark gray or charcoal trousers. It's a safe combination almost every time. As I consider you one of the best dressers around SF, I'm curious to know if you've made an active choice to not try some of your outfit with other dark trousers, i.e. navy trousers and if so, why you've made that decision? I can't but think that some of your outfits would look (almost?) equally good with dark blue/navy trousers.

Thanks man! I haven't tried navy trousers because in my mind they looks more like suit trousers. But I think at some point I might try them since there are some fabrics that does not look like suit trousers.

Thanks. I've had the same thought, but have as of lately thought that I might try it by using fabrics that have patterns (i.e. herringbone) or texture (i.e. flannel, donegal).

Amen, if the sportcoat was neo cut and the trousers were high rise with extended waistband, like the grey and brown Botto trousers, it would have been perfect. Still love the sportcoat though.

On the OCBD colours, I think bringing back the green university stripe would be swell.

Finding distractions from grading. New MTM sportcoat in Minnis bamboo fabric. I’ll upload a better picture later, but bamboo (or maybe just this specific fabric) has very rich color.
