I dont why everyone has an impression that its 100 F in India all year around. The winters in Delhi are pretty severe and I dislike the flimsy Italian fabrics which are promoted by the tailors in India. I have a 21 oz jeans which I wear comfortably and also just got a suit made from Minnis flannel which I got from Andrew Rogers.

Clearly I am ignorant - please pardon me and I hope you have not been offended... please do let us know if you have any additional questions.

Of course I am not offended, its just that India has a certain impression w.r.t. its people, customs and even weather and the impressions are not always correct and/or cannot be applied in a general to 1 billion people (customs) and the 7th largest country by mass (weather). Just like it can be snowing in one part of the US and beach weather in another, the same is very possible in India.

On a 3 roll 2.5 do you do the top button up?!?

What a nightmare!

Nope, we assert you should always leave the top button UNbuttoned on a 3-button.

100 ties, lots of sport jackets, lots of outerwear (shearlings, coats, leather, etc.), lots of pants and jeans, only a handful of suits (maybe 20+). We're also getting in a Riviera Napoli shirts - really nice hand made shirts - haven't seen them anywhere else yet... also a few shirts from Barba and Buonamassa. We're working on another possible deal for more Kiton (suits, coats, shoes) - nothing definite on that deal though. Also possibly a lot of Brioni suits... any of you guys have $1,000,000 we can borrow?

How's the quality of Sartoria Parma? Is it Raffaele Caruso's lower range? Which brands (Brioni, Isaia, Battistoni...etc.) it is comparable in quality?

It's their top range.

I believe it goes (top to bottom):

Raffaelle Caruso Sartoria Parma
Caruso
Fluo

RL Black Label would be most comparable to the Caruso line. RL Purple Label made by RC would be at or above the Satoria Parma level. Antirabbit contends the nicest RC is the stuff they make for Andriano&Sons. Anyways, Sartoria Parma is nice stuff. I'd love to hear what others think. Hope this helps.

All Valentino is an additional 20% off - type in code VAL20 right at checkout.

This includes suits from Valentino Roma as well as the Isaia made Valentino suits. Also included are overcoats and sweaters for a total savings of up to 85% off retail! Guys - these Valentino Roma suits are at Saks and Bloomingdales for $1,400 and up, and for you bargain hunters they're at Century 21 (discount store) for $599.99, and now we have them for around $270! Lots of bigger sizes left - most smaller sizes are sold out in the Roma suits...
