Super 160s wool
An exceptionally fine wool, prized for softness and drape. Better suited to occasional wear than to daily commuting.
Super numbers describe the fineness of the wool fibre, not a guarantee of quality. Finer wools usually feel softer and lighter, but they are not automatically more durable. Your tailor will balance softness against hard-wearing performance for how you plan to wear the garment.
