Ugh fresco. I know you have written of it eloquently before this and I have refrained.

But seeing as you yourself mentioned that there are those who simply don't prefer high twist frescos- it's so, so, I don't know- dreary- a cloth that it used to make Dad sigh and shake his head, and so it does me.

But thanks for mentioning the wrinkle resistance of this cloth- it is superior to many other lighter weights by a considerable amount- it's just that I think I would prefer to stand!

Will,

I reside just 30 minutes from the City in a small suburb known as Martinez, and you can count me as one of the few outside SF that wears suits on a regular basis.

Your blog has helped me refine my sense of style and I am a more confident dresser because of it. My sartorial sins are almost non-existent as of late.

For summer I tend to use light worsteds and linen, specially in the Brentwood/Antioch heat.

I am still trying to get my hands on proper spectators like the ones you recommended to me in the past, but I figure there's worse things I can do than wear light tan oxfords with summer suits.

Cheers.

When you're there try this magic trick.

Say'Richard James and Ozwald Boateng'.

Eyes will instantly turn green.

Amazing stuff.

Will, your thoughts on high twist wool versus wool/mohair mixes? You have written about both, and I am interested in your comparison of the two.

I wear both, and find high twist wool understated and the sheen of wool/mohair dandified.
