    Recommended options for tailored gray business suit

    1) Weight wise - as you're in Southern California, I would go as light as you can whilst still retaining the 'feel' or 'hang' of flannel.. Scabal make some light (8 oz) brushed twills in wool/cotton that would fit the bill.. although will be pricey. 2) If wearing a three piece, the waistcoat...
