Help, Can't wear wool

[Undertow]

I'm not joking here... but seriously, throw on some pantyhose or tights underneath. It helps me when I wear wool pants (I itch like crazy too). And don't get all freaked out because they are "ladies things". No one is going to see them. They will help.

That's a pretty fantastic idea. There are still such things as men's stockings, and depending on your foot size you could get them up to the knee. They're typically nylon or silk. It would be much more economical and practical to simply run out and pick up a pair of ladies' hosiery.

Ha!

Unromantic? Yes .... but not as unromantic as wearing a polyester suit.

Hi LolitaHaze, when Im out on the town in my best ETRO suit, I expect to be seen UNETROwed before the evening is finished.
While I thing your suggestion is good and somewhat mysterious, I enjoy ripping my clothing off in front of my lady of the evening.
However I may give your suggestion a try.
Best regards

For some reason, a vision of the guy from rocky horror picture show came to mind ...

Sounds like you have it worked out for summer (hot weather), but I'm not sure how silk would look in winter. (though I sympathise with your problems with heat - nothing worse than the heat being turned up too hot when it is cold out.)

I would go with heavy weight linen. It looks vintage and should be durable enough if you use good quality linen.

It's also more romantic than a polyester suit.

Cary Grant wore ladies underwear underneath his suits.

If it's good enough for Cary -- it's good enough for ya'll! He is the dreamiest! :-D

Studio Suits fully lines their wool jackets in satin as standard and there's a check box for adding a satin lining for the pants down to the knee, with the ability to include further instructions. Since the half-pants lining only adds $5 I'm sure you could request a full lining for very little extra.
