I checked out the Midnight Blue one a few weeks ago and they were black grosgrain lapels. Definitely a sharp tux though it's really blue! Not what I would call Midnight at all.

I'm going to go against the grain and say that the London is a roomier fit than that Napoli. I bought a 44L London and the only alterations I had to make were to cuff the pants. Love that suit. Too bad Suitsupply only offers it in navy so I also went with a charcoal Napoli. The jacket fits but the pants downright suck. Yeah, I'm quite a bit bigger than 99% of you (6'4" 225 lbs, athletic from squats, deadlifts, presses, etc.) and the London pants barely fit me but the Napoli pants didn't stand a chance - unless I stand up all the time and even then they're Saran Wrap. As soon as I sit down I'm busting out of the seams at the thighs. Of course the SA said, "Oh, we can make them work by letting out the inner seam." Yeah, right. I was in a hurry and picked it up from the store and finally got a chance to try it on this weekend. Guessing I'll find out today how good their customer service is because I'm heading back in to return the damn thing.

Keeping the London - beautiful suit.

I'm with you. The Napoli seems to be for people with (relatively) large mid-sections but skinny legs. It is the only suit I have ever tried where the jacket had to come in around the waist, and the pants had to be let out. The most generous cut really shouldn't be a drop 7.

So, the C705 "Wool Cashmere by Ormezzano (It)" is definitely 50% acetat? Bummer, wanted to order one for fall.

Seems like it's best to avoid any jacket that has "blend" in the description...
Sorry for quoting myself, but according to a German message board, suitsuppy replied that

it is 50% hemp. Oh well, I'd like to believe them.

Looks like its back to $149 again...


yes, after a while they mark it back to $149, but with " x pieces left" written there... I don't know the rationale for the markdown, when I saw the $99 price I just assumed they have like very few pieces left so I shed all doubts and ordered

yes, lined. very nice shape to the body but the bottoms flare quite a bit, i can't pinppoint the reason, could be that it's just a tad big in the chest or that I have a prominent butt. it wasnt flaring as much when it was ventless (vent basting not yet cut)
