Posted on November 18, 2019June 1, 2020 by Mike Irons Grey Tuxedo Yes it’s ok to do formal in Grey. This grey sharkskin wool three piece tuxedo is in Super 120’s VBC fabric and is wrapped in smooth Black satin on the lapels, jetted pockets and buttons. The finest “natural sharkskin” fabric has been historically made of all natural fibers, being some mixture of mohair, wool and silk.Sharkskin is a smooth worsted fabric with a soft texture and a two-toned woven appearance.Sharkskins’ two-toned woven appearance is achieved by basketweaving, thereby creating a pattern in which the colored threads run diagonal to the white fibers. Because both fabric options already have a relatively smooth texture, the combination results in the finish for which sharkskin fabric is known.
