Has anyone had a suit made from Scabal's "Business Class" cloth? It claims to be stain and crease resistant. When I felt some swatches in the book it was light weight and slightly stretchy. I was told that the latter was a function of the weave. The patterns were perfectly agreeable. For the train / plane commuter...too good to be true?

One tailor I mentioned it to said that it was a bit of a gimmick and that for European travel I should stick to a mohair mix. I'd be interested in the opinions of a tailor who has actually cut it as to how it would drape.
