I kind of thought higher button stances were in style right now.

This is a nice coat.

Back in the early 60s there were thousands of tailors across the US. Many of them had a number of ideas for making skinny lapels, and some were very nice. Today, where is the imaginations coming from? A handful of tailors and designers? Not much to see anymore.

What do you think about long-sleeve polos? Wearable or bad style?


I love 'em, but casually. Never with a sportcoat or anything, but with khakis/jeans and a leather jacket or whatever? Wonderful.

Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it. It is between this and this
a Luigi Bianchi Mantova Sartoria line suit. I'm not familiar with LBM, and it's not heavily talked about here either.

Jmm722,

The one that fits best is probably the one to keep.

You could take them to an alterations tailor and put them on and let him decide which one is best for adjusting the fit.
