I gotta say, the suede trucker jacket may be one of the best things SM has made.

It’s so damned nice, well made and quality suede, and at that price it punches above its weight like crazy. So glad I picked it up. I paired it with Unmarked suede Chelsea boots in a similar colour and what a wonderful look. Would love to see more like this from SM.
If you have a chance, post a pic - sounds like a nice combo!

@SpierTeam any plans for a Type 2 suede trucker?

Neo-cut navy suit in Minnis Twill from this season. Gorgeous, heavy fabric, smooth hand. Great for conservative business dress. Loving this a lot!

Is it made to measure or tailored? I don't see the waist so nipped in the RTW. Also, very nice pleats on the shoulder. Is the roping effect caused by the pleats?
Off the rack. It’s just that the SM Neo 2 Contemporary block fits me very well. And yes, the roping is caused by the Spalla Camicia pleating.

You are very lucky, then. I'm waiting for a Suitsupply MTM sportcoat with pleated shoulders and I hope it turns out similarly and not overdone. Do you find the pleats to help with upper arm mobility/fullness?

Honestly? I don’t think it makes much of a difference. Looks great though!
