If we do a run of LL mohair again, get some in blue or any shade of gray. I have suits from both and cannot see the difference from a wool suit, but I can feel the difference. That was the idea behind this remarkable cloth.
It is true that cheaply made mohair that you find in books does look like "mohair" and some shades are, as Hectorm says, particularly awful. And as Concordia writes these defects are hidden in the dark as long as you stay outside in the dark.
So my advice is, as with each and every fabric type, to wait until you can acquire excellent quality. Do not make up anything less. Why spend for a tailor's work with inherently defective materials? I might understand if you need a large quantity of beater suits to be made MTM. But at that point why not buy RTW?
Cheers
