Can anyone recommend a 13 oz. flannel,or more, in a dark gray with about a one inch chalk stripe for a double breasted suit? The closest I can find is HS # 757609. The pattern is exactly what I am looking for but it is only 11 oz.

I don't have a suit from it, but you might look at this from Henry Poole. 15-16 oz. This may be their Churchill commemorative cloth; I'm not sure. You could contact them to inquire.

Have a look through the Minnis flannels such as 0336.

or perhaps, Harrisons flannel...

You might seek advice on the merits of both woollen and worsted flannels. There should be plenty of information if you search the forum. Good luck...

Fox flannels has exactly what you're looking for. I have their chalk in navy, and it is a lovely fabric.
