Popular opinion holds that wool blends are suitable only for the winter. Nothing is more untrue as the discerning gentleman will know. They "breathe" better than other fabrics, apart from being natural air-conditioners. Light-weight blends have open construction, to enhance moisture transfer. They are also naturally elastic to allow the suits to retain their shape.

Blends of wool with linen enhance absorption while wool with lycra mixes beautifully to give drape and stretch. As for flattering a gentleman's personality, no other fabric has the fall, feel and finish as wool and wool-blends.
