Dear LL Members

In an earlier post ( http://thelondonlounge.net/gl/forum/vie ... highlight=)
i was searching for a POW cloth (grey with blue overcheck)for a winter suit. In the last weeks i wrote about 7 or 8 emails and receive a lot of swatches.
Unfortunatly there wasn´t the cloth i was looking for in it. Then i found on a website a swatchcard from Hield.
Immediatly i wrote a email to them (07.06.2006) Until now no i got no reply :cry:
So my question to you is. Can anybody help me finding the cloth im searching for?
Im at the end of my wisdom. I thought this kind of POW cloth is very common.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Harrisons have a 13 oz. POW similar to what you are looking for in the Oyster bunch. Will post the swatch number later. They also have a 11/12 oz. worsted flannel, that in my mind, is superior. It better be, because I'm having it made up for me.

Harrisons' website has contact addresses. They responded to me within a few days when I sought their assistance a few months ago. Their sister brand, LBD, has a good book of suit linings.

Is the 13 oz Harrisons a worsted wool or a worsted flannel? what do you think about the 13oz POW in the Harrison's Thistle book?

Here is a photo of the Harrisons 13 oz (not flannel)

The POW flannel is 39024. It has a larger check/overcheck and obviously a fuzzier appearance.[/img]

I believe the Thistle bunch is the same as the Oyster (L76).
