CLOTHING COACH | OUR MILLS

Why did you choose these mills
to provide fabrics for The Clothing Coach?

Our fabrics are carefully selected from British, French and Italian mills simply because they are the best. Our oldest Italian mills sit near Lake Cuomo in Northern Italy, where the water has nutrients that aren’t found in any other body of water. This was first discovered nearly 500 years ago and a primary reason why tailors and manufacturers flocked to Italy.  These mills have developed the experience to help produce the finest fabrics near this unique water source that dyes the clothes in their particular way.

Like in Egypt where the soil has particular minerals that are specific to that area, making Egyptian cotton the best, where the cotton ball grows in a way that each individual staple is the longest in the world: 6 to 8 inches long. This cotton is used to spin into a fabric for a much more resilient, more absorbent cloth that breathes better and lasts longer as a clothing fabric.

Our mills have well over 1,000 years of combined fabric manufacturing  experience.

Vitale Barberis Cononnico is the oldest existing fabric mill in the world founded 1663. As another one of our favorite Italian mills, Reda founded in 1865. Among our finest of fabrics, also come from the French mill Dormeuil founded 1872.

They are among the first fabric mills to create some of the best quality fabrics that we use for our men’s suits and made to order shirts.
