Thanks for sharing.  The Prince of Wales plaid is a stand-out.

Marc, I agree.  I went in thinking blue/gray but that brown POW with the blue overcheck is one of my favorite fabrics I have ever seen so it is going to be hard not to choose it.   These choices are so difficult to make when there are so many nice patterns in the book!

Re: Pics of Lesser cloth for HK suit

I might agree with the boob book but a porn star convention might get my attention over the Lesser stuff.

Remember that a good custom suit will last you a long time and you want something you can wear and love years from now. I feel like ive already said this but If you know you love POW, then go for it, otherwise I would take a stripe or a darker solid. I dont like that light grey. I think a lot of people in the community would but I think it's too high maintenance for a work suit. Now for casual, light grey suit it all the way. The brown nail head or birds eye (I cant make it out in the photo you placed, is a dandy's suit) but may not be one you want for workaday.

I ordered the Brown nailshead.  I just absolutely loved it and it is appropriate out here in Phoenix unlike some other places.  I will probably get a plain charcoal also but I think I am just going to wait and pick a plain charcoal that they have in house when I get to Hong Kong.
