In a world where Berg & Berg tailoring isn’t made in Italy any more and as 13.characters explained, it shows. Where then would you get « affordable modern Napolitan » style tailoring made in Italy ?

Natalino? Never tried Cavour and I can’t explain why but their online store doesn’t make me want to buy (probably because silly prejudice but their photos don’t get me excited).

Pini Parma if you like shorter jackets

Cavour is made in China but their quality is so much higher than Berg & Berg that it is silly to compare them. I think the issue with Cavour is that their models wear an oversized jackets and so they look odd. I have to size down in my jacket size in Cavour to get me the slim look I like without any restrictions, but for the pants I have to size up as they are so skinny!

Pretty sure Cavour switched to making in China so they could upgrade quality without an attendant huge jump in pricing. Buttonholes are stitched by hand on the fronts (they use faux buttonholes on the sleeves), etc. That's how Kevin made it sound anyway, and having compared the make from the Italy factory to the new Chinese factory, there's no downgrade detectable to me.
