Great thread this, I've thoroughly enjoyed reading it and will be out in my game keepers tweed jacket later today.
I'm looking to forward to the colder weather next week so that I can wear my tweed suits. Does anyone else here wear tweed suits?

^^ O'Connell's has an excellent selection of cavalry twill and whipcord trousers.
It's ok actually. The so-called "Agnelli tweed" - you may be able to find a picture of it on London Lounge. It's heavy (13 ozs iirc) as I believe all Alden cloths are. I probably wouldn't go through the gamble and extra effort of ordering cloth unseen via the internet again and I'm no longer such a fan of overchecks, but it's a sturdy tweed that'll last a long long time, it's not scratchy, and I probably saved a bit on the tailoring rather than if I had selected from the tailor's swatch books.
