So you're saying there's no fur lined bombers lined up?

This is super tempting. I think I like the darker one better..


Haha not for the spring, no

I'm a bit fan of the darker one as well, I think it looks good with the black trim. Greg is partial to the lighter one IIRC

Hello gentlemen,

Is the suit (and more specifically the fabric, Navy 9/10 oz Minnis fresco wool) linked below acceptable for weddings/job interviews if paired with a pair of black cap toe oxfords? I live in a warm humid climate so a 3 season suit will need to be on the cooler end of the spectrum to be wearable most of the year.

Thanks

Absolutely. The weave is very open so as to make it cool wearing:

And it's certainly appropriate for weddings and job interviews.

Wow - those look great. I'm not sure our average site visitor/customer would have the foresight to understand how great natural veg tan will turn with wear and time. Maybe a candidate for a special edition GMTO?


YES! Count me in

Delfino Formosa untailored. I had to do a fair amount of correction to get the color close to right.

Its so hard to get an accurate color but only people with it can enjoy its true beauty.

Same struggle...

@conceptual 4est, you're wearing a medium in the photos? Are you usually a small or medium?
