Our Fabrics

100% Super-fine Merino Wool

Spun from exceptionally fine Merino fibers, this pure-wool cloth balances lightweight comfort with a refined, natural drape. The yarn’s long-staple structure helps the fabric breathe, resist wrinkles, and spring back to shape—so your suit looks freshly pressed from first toast to last dance.

Essential Merino Wool

Our mid-weight “workhorse” Merino wool blend (55% super-fine merino wool, 42% polyester, 3% elastane) is woven for all-season versatility—soft enough for day-long wear, sturdy enough for frequent rotation. A smooth finish lends a subtle luster while a hint of elastane keeps creases in check, giving you an easy, polished look any day of the year.

Linen Blend (53% Linen / 47% Cotton)

Equal parts airy linen and soft-structured cotton, this blend tempers linen’s relaxed texture with just enough body to hold a crisp line. Wear it when the forecast calls for heat—its open weave encourages airflow, and the fabric develops a gentle lived-in character that gets better every trip around the sun.

100% Silk

From tuxedo lapels and trouser braid to bow ties and pocket squares, we rely on pure silk for its unmistakable luster and rich color saturation. Whether finished in smooth satin or a textured twill, silk’s natural strength and fluid drape add the final touch of ceremony—proof that the smallest details make the greatest impression.
