Cognac Rock 7001 Wool Blend Suit

Cognac is the warm, tawny end of brown, for the man who wants something richer than navy and lighter than chocolate. In the fall it is the suit that does not look like everyone else’s navy and charcoal, and it is a natural for a fall wedding.

The cloth is a wool and polyester blend, 70/30, with the wool doing most of the work. A deeper colour hides the wear of a long day better than beige does, though a lint brush before you leave the house is still worth the ten seconds.

Wear it with a cream, white or light blue shirt, a navy or forest green knit tie, and dark brown or tan shoes. Keep the belt and shoes the same shade.

Fit notes: Jacket and trousers come together as a stock suit in regular lengths. Bring the shirt and shoes you plan to wear, and ask us about sizing if you are between two. We take care of the alterations in store.

The same 7001 suit comes in beige for a summer or daytime wedding.
