Yeah, that looks pretty close to the correct color (on my phone at least). I'm pretty much sold, I'm just coming to grips with it.
The house check is very similar to 44534, just with different coloring in the check. The current run is in an 11oz. Lambswool instead of the original 13/14oz like the 44534 is.
I'm excited to get something in Moonbeam probably more than anything. I have been eyeballing it forever and it feels fantastic to the hand.
I spy some houndstooth
Forward fitting for the Poole House Check jacket last week. Very pleased. Should have it around Thanksgiving-ish. Pics to follow.
Also have the Moonbeam fabric chilling, very close to pulling the trigger, along with a few summer ideas to get moving for next year.

^Very nice schmutter. Do you have contact details please? Anyone have experience of this merchant?
I've been kicking around a moleskin jacket, in an airforce blue-ish color. I have been going a little overboard on the moleskin lately though so I'm in a forced abstinence at the moment.
Have some moleskin trousers out of that same fabric above I believe.
Poole's house check - this is what some businessmen wore in the early 1990ies ( I think FNB described them as "Swiss" in one of his great article). Not for me, I am afraid.
