By the way, their specialty is the silk...

Every time I was buying they didn't have. Either my size wasn't available, and one time they had a different batch which was awful quality and Mendy would not let me buy it.

Fair enough, you sometimes need to have patience.
I think Mendy not letting you buy shows in their specialty

First he takes you to the CBD store, then he takes you back to the kapota side once you won't know the difference

If you don't know the difference after some CBD, you got other issues.

Thanks everyone for your input
Any info on a way to get cheaper pricing for silk though?
Primo is around $600
Bardys I think is around $400
Anything less?

I'd be highly dubious of 100% silk for less than that. Are you really getting 100% silk for $400?

Bardys doesn't feel like wool or polyester, it's just pretty light

Bardys/tzemach is 100 real silk, but that's about the cheapest you can get a 100% silk Kapota. I bought my wedding Kapota from them and I was very happy with it for 4 years. I've heard people complain if there Kapota doesn't last 10 yeats. Hello most cars don't age well either over 10 years! I was very happy with 4 years. Also to avoid the bubbling I've seen on some kapotas just avoid getting it soaked. Personally I never had that bubbling.
I'm actually am sitting on about 75, 100% silk kapotas. I wanted to bring the price down, but right now I'm just sitting on them. Not sure if I'm allowed to post that here. Will remove if not allowed.

Is Hartsteins still around?
Both owners passed away and the phone number listed on Google is disconnected.

Their silk blend Kapotos were amazing. Looked good, great quality, great price and durable.

Where can I find a similar Kapoto in CH with those characteristics?

Are these the same as Sacco recently had on sale for $180, just without the Sacco label?

ShmuliT specifically stated he’s looking for a durable silk blend, not bottom-of-the-barrel quality

considering it's on his website and store, I'd say it's the same
