Custom made sportcoat. Soft construction w/ 1/4 lined. Made in NYC

Thread Starter 
A customer was looking for an American Made version of a Neapolitan jacket. I thought that My friends at Giliberto designs on west 36th street. could do a good job, but with some modifications.

Customer supplied a Wool/linen fabric.

this style has 1/4 "Scalloped" lining with taped seams.
the shoulder has some roping and some additional fullness.
it took 3 fittings. Initial measurements, basted, and final.. it took 4-5 weeks
I will post pictures when I figure out how to do so

Whoa, what's up with the bowing at the chest? Doesn't look like it fits at all...

I see a pretty significant lapel/chest gap.

It didn't look like just a pound or two, should be at lease 5 or 6.

The launch of my coats is actually going to be a big deal. Currently putting the finishing touches on a deal with Willow Smith to be the official model.
