BrooksCool Shirts and Suits?

I just got the Brooks Brothers Catalog today and am thinking about picking up a BrookCool suit. It is reportedly lighter, more breathable and water resistant.

Has anyone gotten any of these suits or shirts before? It's going to be hot this summer in NYC and I don't want to come back after happy hour dripping in sweat.

Thanks!

"A blend of wool, polyester and Lycra". Has anybody had any experience with this mix? The polyester is a BIG alarm for me as far as summer is concern.

If their wool is tropical weight then that's fine (i'm guessing it is since they claim the suit is lighter)

I hope this is a good alternative but based on the fabric mix I'm quite skeptical. Linen and cotton wrinkle...and regular wool is deadly

 
peinvestor2012Why not just put $900 towards custom suits/clothing? Tom James has solid packages. May run you more than $900 for two suits, but they'll be custom fit. Nothing beats it.
Why not just put 3k for a decent bespoke suit? May run you more than 900 but they'll be bespoke. Nothing beats it. P.S. a lot of people don't have $900 - your argument is ridiculous
