Super 120's wool is breathable, making it suitable for most indoor formal events year-round, though it is primarily designed for evening wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Shelton suit, it is essential to store it on a high-quality, wide-shouldered wooden hanger to maintain the shape of the lapels and shoulders. Always use a garment bag when transporting the suit to prevent dust accumulation or snagging. Compatibility-wise, this suit pairs best with patent leather oxfords or polished black leather dress shoes. Because the material is delicate Super 120's wool, it should never be steam-pressed at home using standard equipment; professional dry cleaning is the only recommended method for removing wrinkles or stains.
