flannel?

If I had to guess, Donegal. Seems nubby in the pic.

Awesome. I love everything about it.

All monitors are not created equal, of course, and on mine the suit looks more bronze than brown. It's really quite distinctive.

sweet suit. neat to see non-skinny pants legs around this forum every once in a while.

Difficult to judge from that single pic, but he would benefit from a slightly longer jacket length and maybe a lower button stance too, I think.

Pic's from the Sartorialist, isn't it? I think there are a couple more shots of the same guy there. All with nice suits that with a couple of tiny little tweaks would look even better.

Slightly slimmer pants too.

I like the overall look though.

^ well, you know I don't mind slightly looser trouser cuts, so I think those are OK.

Holdfast,

the first thing that caught my attention was the button stance but the more I looked at it, the more I respected it. Perhaps it complements the position of the 2nd story pocket on the right side of the suit?

The rise on those trousers must be like a 20.

you're right Yachtie

I asked him directly and got this reply:

Scabal Cheviot & Donegal book. Cloth number 12724.

if anyone has the fabric book and can post a picture of the swatch, that would be great
