Any thoughts on the most recent cuts? From what I've seen they've did away with the Gable. Looks like the ones they have now are the Arno, Richard and Rugby.

I have not seen the new cuts. I tried on the Gable at a local retailer a couple of weeks ago when I started this thread. Is the Arno the Gable "replacement." i.e. natural shoulder with a slimmer fit? How do the new models compare?

Arno is the class cut. I tried the slimmer cut (forgot the name), and had to size up, but it has a great silhouette. If I recall correctly, the slimmer cut has a 17.5' shoulder at 40R.

Samuelsohn overall just has a better fit in my opinion.

It sounds like the Rugby is the new Gable. Although from the sales person I spoke to, it's even slimmer than the Gable.

How about a Samuelsohn fit pic? Anybody? I've yet to see one on SF. Curious as to the silhouette, as the mannequin ones don't look particularly appealing.

Go check out the Paul Stuart website. Most of their suits are Samuelsohns. Granted, those are not typical of all Samuelsohn suits but they do show what you can expect in terms of finish and quality.

Tried on a new cut today - Geneva - I think it is distinct for sports jackets.

2 patch pockets, welt breast, no shoulder padding, half lined, very soft tailoring, trim body.

Really beautiful subdued yet patterned fabrics.

Gonna be picking up a navy herringbone jacket very shortly. Big winner here.

PSA for this Samuelsohn lovefest.  Michigan Avenue Nordstrom Rack had several Samuelsohn suits for $600.  Solid colors and various sizes, but a wool/cashmere mix that looked like a flannel suit.  Looked great and the fit was very nice.
