I'm still alive

Sorry for the lack of posting, but things were pretty hectic for the last couple of months.
Since I last left off, I had another pair of trousers made. Here they are:
The picture's kind of blurry, but you can clearly see that the breaks around my lower shins aren't as prominent. Despite my body's best efforts to thwart them, my bespoke efforts continue forward!
Summers in Seoul are hot and muggy, and wearing anything warmer than a shirt will turn you into a puddle. Still, professional standards require me to wear the occasional two-piece suit. Mr. Min received the new Wain Shiell book recently, and I'm taking a look at the Bahama series of cloth: 9-10 oz plain weave wool, looks like it could breathe, and one swatch came in a nice tan color. The other tailor had some Holland and Sherry, but the storeowner is rude and their shoulderpads aren't the best. (I think Mr. Min does a better job with jacket construction.)
