The technology of mixing yarns has come a long way in the last 20 years.

Forget traditional 14oz pure linens, and instead opt for blends of linen, silk and wool to create super-light 6oz/7oz finishes.

These, combined with a half lining, are a great option for a spring suit.

Tropical fine worsted wools with a fine fresco weave offer superb breathability through the fabric.

They’re a blessing for businessmen in suits in hot, humid situations.

There are around 3,000 fabric choices at Henry Poole so there’s sure to be something to suit you.
