Wow, so A & S must have no idea what they are doing using this cloth...
... but I think I value the experience of the A&S tailors over yours.
I have had 2 coats made of Breanish. The tailor I use says that it is a bit difficult to work with, but the end result is worth it. The tailor even has a coat for himself made with it. I have had my coats now for over 3 yrs, and they get heavy use. Not a one has become baggy, even though I wore one for 4 days in a row.
Experience first over internet babble.
In Sator's defense, he was amplifying on Chris Despos's lukewarm opinion of how Breanish makes up.
And, my reading of Chris's opinon is that basically, he didn't like tailoring it the two times he had done so, and he associates this with product quality. He didn't address how Breanish looks or lasts once made (at least, I did not read that from his comments). When Chris Despos takes time to say what he thinks about a fabric, I don't think that is internet babble, although it can be an opinion one can discount or ignore.
I have to think Edwin has done quite a few Breanish jackets at A&S and currently, so I have sent him a note suggesting that he comments on it in this thread if he feels there is any point not yet covered.
