I personally don't mind hacking pockets per se, but I do feel that on fabrics with a busy pattern, such as gun clubs, they accentuate my already large frame (6"3, 227 pounds), especially given the difficulty of good pattern matching. Hence, I tend to opt for jetted pockets on those fabrics, perhaps crescent if I still want that bit of British panache.

I also seem to remember reading there was some British fabric ebay guy?
Anyone have any idea what his fabrics are like?

Anyone care to persuade me otherwise?

DB patch blazer suit seems awful impractical, at least in my opinion.

I don't see any way to buy cloth from the Harrison's site, or am I missing something?

You have to contact their local agent for your country: http://www.harrisonsofedinburgh.com/agents.html#, or contact them directly. They don't do web sales.

Interesting. Curious what changes you're going to make when the two aren't exactly the same.
