"S" Number is Here to Stay

It’s time to talk about fabrics for business and ceremony suits, smokings and tailcoats. These garments are labeled “Super 150’s”, “Super 160’s” and “Super 180’s”. The cloth is produced of top quality wool. Such fabrics are as delicate and soft as silk. The fineness of the woolen fiber used in the fabrics is approximately 13 microns.

There are certain fabrics that require special attention and attitude – precious Super 200’s and Super 250’s. These ultrafine cloths are extremely consistent along their length, have an unparalleled lustre and a natural comfort. Produced in England, either in pure merino wool or wool blended with silk and vicuna, they are the ultimate choice for sophisticated tailoring and are meant to be worn on a special occasion. Such superfine fabrics tend to wear to one’s shape and are designed for those gentlemen who value quality, style and splendor.
