I would like to commission a suit in a glen check tweed - brown, olive or green (maybe even grey). Any cloth recommendations?

Obviously a dumb question. Ah, well, I'm sure I'll have more fun poking around in W Bill.

Not a dumb question, but since the cloth club has made at least two of these, members may have satisfied themselves from that source and not have current alternatives to suggest . . . .

Looking back through the Cloth Club projects the LLTW05 is particularly attractive. Sorry I missed that one. I think that is described as a PoW with overcheck, which leads me to ask, is there a difference between a PoW check and a Glen Check?

This is the sort of thing I had in mind (I know it's similar to a previous Cloth Club project, which I am sorry to have missed)

Now, if this were in lovat green, with a dark green glen check and a light blue overcheck :D

Anyone any experience with this Scabal book?
