The Model 4 Suit/Jacket

Based on the Model 2 pattern, but with a lightly padded shoulder, heavier canvas and slightly lower closing button.
A slightly more formal sibling to our popular Model 2 Jacket.

(Also available in a small run of longer sizes)

Will this style be available for SCs as well?

@kevinsvindland can you drop fabric details (or add to the new listings) when able?

No, not for the near future anyway.

All is actually in the product files.
Just need the nerds to make it appear on the screen.
So will be up asap..

(Or I will have to spend a days work doing it all manually..)#FML

Tweeds are mostly Moon(330-360g), three of them are Lovat (450g)

The Donegal houndstooth is from Leomaster. (Weight slippes my mind)

Flannels are woven for us in Huddersfield. (330g) Suits and trousers.

Chalkstripe suit is also Moon,
(400-ish g)

Other suits are a mix of VBC and Cavour exclusives (all around 280-300g)

Manish Puri included Cavour in his article on Permanent Style today.
Looks like it may answer many questions regarding how our product compares to other brands in a similar price range.

I also recently came across this one by Derek Guy for Mr.Porter, which seems quite relevant as well:

And for everyone, and as a reminder I have reviews of every single one of those brands (except Berg & Berg).

 

[AFrenchGuy]

I really like this idea!
However, and this is just my opinion, but what could be very interesting would be to have 2 types of cut: a very Italian cut for the summer, with a 3 roll 2, a unstructured shoulder, etc, as is currently the case, and a more English cut for the winter with a more structured jacket, two buttons (so no 3 roll 2), etc. That would be more in line with the season, I think, even if I know that Cavour remains a brand with a real appeal for Italian style.

Are reviewers compensated? Asking for a friend

I'm liking this direction, Cavour. I've been scouting for a lightly padded shoulder to formalize things a bit. The extras are definitely a draw: 3r2, lower buttoning point. I see you're offering long sizes, but please tell me these come with the Mod 3 trousers.

I’ve noticed Manish sized up for his jacket. Is this what you typically recommend? I’m a 38US but and the 48 is just a tad small on the shoulders, armholes and chest but I’m afraid ill be swimming in a 50. Thanks

As long as you have a good fit in shoulders taking in the rest is not an issue. So yeah, you should size up

I've been wondering about this, too, as a number of Cavour consumers in this thread have noted the slimmer shoulders as compared to other brands in the same size. I'm looking to dip my toe in the Cavour sportcoat/suiting world, yet the slim shoulders give me some pause.
