When I first came across this cloth from Holland and Sherry I was a bit skeptical, but it came highly recommended by someone I trust, and had been favorably compared to Minnis&#8217; Fresco by others (another cloth I am tepid toward) so I decided to give it a go.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m glad I did.<\/p>\n<p>I struggled a bit with the fullness in the sleeves on the first coat I cut and I wasn&#8217;t happy with the finished results so I ripped out the sleeves, cut them down, and set them back in shirt-sleeve style and was very happy with it so I cut another coat with this kind of shoulder expression in mind.  I have to say that I&#8217;m really pleased with the way this cloth is making up- it is sturdy and can take a bit of a beating (good for travel) but is soft and fluid enough and breathes fairly well.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes it&#8217;s good to step outside of your comfort zone.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/21977945@N02\/5746890486\/\" title=\"VENDON by jefferytailor, on Flickr\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2404\/5746890486_6d722dd68a.jpg?resize=333%2C500\" width=\"333\" height=\"500\" alt=\"VENDON\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When it&#8217;s done I&#8217;ll try to get  better shot with better lighting because this doesn&#8217;t do the coat justice.
