Camel Hair from Spier & Mackay
Anyone have experience with Spier & Mackay's pure camel hair fabric from the mill Leonard? I can’t find any reviews, images or even info about the mill that’s not on their website

Deciding on an Overcoat
I'm looking to get a Polo Coat or a Balmacaan, but am having difficulty deciding on which style would suit me best. In Fall and Winter I tend to wear chunky knits and chords or a tweed sports coat for something on the more fancy side. One factor to consider is that I'm short and quite muscular. I've heard advice that both long coats and doublebreasted coats aren't great for short men.... but I kinda don't really care. I want that dramatic swish and the fact that I'm short isn't gonna stop me! What other considerations should I think about when making this decision? Any particular recommendations? Budget is around 1K USD.

Shoe and Pants combo with Black Polo
For a work event, I’ll need to wear black polos. The nice shoes I have in my collection include black calf monkstraps, brown derbies (Armagnac shell cordovan) and a slightly lighter brown pair of service boots in calf.
With these choices, what pants options might you recommend and with what shoes? I’m weary of mixing black and brown, but would prefer to wear the brown shoes if I can make it work!
For pants options, I’m considering a mid blue jean, salmon linen chinos or grey or teal slacks, but I’m open to suggestions!
Thanks 🙂
