Where Wool Meets Innovation: The Firemist Collection from John H. Daniel
At Tara Tailoring and Custom Clothing, we’re always searching for fabrics that elevate the art of bespoke tailoring. This month, we’re thrilled to spotlight the Firemist Collection from John H. Daniel—a sophisticated fabric line that represents the perfect marriage of traditional craftsmanship and modern textile innovation.
The Art of Blending: 80% Wool, 20% Tencel
The Firemist Collection isn’t just another suiting fabric. It’s the result of thoughtful engineering, blending 80% premium wool with 20% Tencel to create a fabric that performs as beautifully as it looks. This carefully calibrated composition delivers the best of both worlds: the timeless elegance and structure of wool, enhanced by Tencel’s unique properties of softness, breathability, and subtle luminosity.

What Makes Firemist Special
Refined Hand and Drape
The moment you touch Firemist, you’ll notice its exceptionally soft hand—a luxurious feel that translates into all-day comfort. The fabric drapes beautifully, creating clean lines and a tailored silhouette that moves naturally with your body.
Subtle Sheen and Depth
The Tencel component brings something truly special to the weave: a delicate sheen that catches the light without being ostentatious, and a depth of color that adds visual interest and sophistication to every garment. This is particularly evident in stunning colorways like F-2900 (frost blue) and F-2920 (malbec).
Year-Round Performance
Thanks to its innovative blend, Firemist offers excellent breathability and moisture-wicking properties. This means your suit performs equally well in climate-controlled offices and outdoor events, making it ideal for the modern professional who needs versatility without compromise.
Lasting Elegance
While Firemist feels luxuriously soft, it maintains a crisp, polished appearance throughout the day. The fabric resists wrinkling and holds its shape beautifully, ensuring you look as sharp at evening events as you did during your morning meeting.

The Details That Matter
When we talk about the Firemist Collection, we’re talking about fabric where every detail has been considered. The Tencel creates movement and dimension in the weave—subtle variations that become apparent in natural light and add character to the cloth. Meanwhile, the wool foundation delivers that refined sense of quality and craftsmanship that you feel the moment you put on the garment.
This attention to detail is what separates a good suit from an exceptional one. It’s the difference between clothing that simply fits and a garment that feels like it was made for you—because it was.

The Firemist Collection excels in creating:
- High-end business suits for the discerning professional
