Creating the adidas Bluebird Blue cloth

To celebrate Henry Poole recent highly successful collaboration with adidas Originals, we have now launched a new limited suit fabric: a beautiful 9oz dark blue flannel, made by Fox Brothers – a company whose history goes back to 18th Century, and which is famous for developing the Prince of Wales check and the first cricket whites – featuring treble-pinstripes in ‘bluebird blue’. This colour, legend has it, became a prominent part of adidas’s colour palate due to founder Adi Dassler’s admiration of it in the Bavarian flag. This exclusive cloth is limited to 50 suits only.
