Just received this H & S wool and mohair from fox81. Second pic is comparison with the Zegna cloth that I am trying to sell but finding no success is doing so, am thinking of getting made up. How would patch pockets look with these cloths. I am thinking of DB with 2 patch for both. Any thoughts

^^ Both double breasted. The blue one will def have patch pockets, undecided about the grey windowpane.

I think this is way too busy, the windowpane is too loud and I do like windowpane a lot.

i think the windowpane would look great as a SB with patch pockets.

the wool/mohair will make a nice DB though

Random goodness from T. Fischer, Woodhouse, Minnis/Hardy and H&S. I am most excited about the navy Minnis striped flannel.

The navy chalk is the 11 oz Minnis flannel. The charcoal stripe immediately to the right is from the H&S Target book. The later came from Fox. I expect to have both made up later this year, along with one of the Hardy's. The rest are being aged, although I don't know if they will ever acquire vintage status.
