Badsha,I don't have any of those made up yet but navy herringbone looks very nice. I highly recommend it if you are looking for a navy herringbone. I plan to get it made up with two hip patch pockets.


Thanks Forex. The Moonbeam what is the weight and where to acquire? Thank you TChoy.

It is about 12-13 oz, very soft cloth. Have you made up the blue donegal?

Not yet. Have been hoarding it. Going to have my tailor try another fabric before giving him the thorn proof donegal.

^ Yes if the camel gets enough subscribers I will definitely go with it, but the everest 1kg cashmere is just too heavy and the color too boring for me to commit to


LL just announced that they have the 60 meters required for production! At 450 GBP/meter x 3.5 meters ~ $2500 USD just for material. :eek:

Hard to justify the cost but I'm not sure if it'll ever be made again. . .

Ditto. I could never ever be able to come close to affording that. Their regular fabrics are already expensive enough at 120GBP/m.

120 GBP? Did they just go up from 100 GBP? That's what I recall from the last round.

Yes at that price, I can buy 2 coats and wear them on top of one another to equal the 1kg weight
