Emporio suits are fused. A sales associate there told me that canvassing is an old technique to make suits that last longer. At Emporio styles keep changing over a period of time and so should one's suit. Hence there is no point going for full canvass construction etc.
At same price Brooks Brother will sell you a full canvassed suit. But of course if you are an athletic guy with drop 8 cut emporio suit will accentuate it better than even most fitted (Milano) ones from Brooks brother.
Fabrics have become better over period of time at EA. They use something called Supreme at least a year ago. It was pretty nice for those price points.
I would never spend $2000 on EA suits. At that price you can get fully canvassed GA (normally $2500 - $4000) suits on 40% off sale. But again in this price range ($2500-$4000) nothing beats Zegna in terms of range and quality of fabric, fit and quality of construction.
