Jacketing Cloth

Hello.

I am looking for a great source of jacketing cloth - cloth suitable for city wear rather than country such as Shetlands, etc.

I have looked at the Holland Sherry books but am uninspired.

What firms do you recommend I look into for elegant city jacketing (sports coats)?

Thank you.

Scabal's website has many options.

Hardy/Minnis have several more bunches that could, perhaps in the lighter weights.

Harrison's has a sensational book of lambswools.

It all depends on what you want.

Do you know the name of the book for the Harrison's city jacketings?

Thanks.
