Also, what do you think about keeping the one-piece lapel from the Cifo, but using these patch pockets?



For all the haters out there, here is a DB Harris from Cifonelli. Some of their designs are more miss than hit, but I admire their wilingness to move beyond DB pinstripes and SB blazers:

I should have first softened him up with a tweed double breasted shawl collar jacket.  Then he probably wouldn't have blanched so much at the fine cutlery. Next up, my shinobi ninja night suit goes into the weekly rotation.  Whoever keeps leaving half a cup of coffee to scorch instead of making a fresh pot gets a star shuriken in the ass.  I'm looking at you, Chad from Client Liason & Services.

Perhaps you should take your cues from chain mail and boiled leather wearing, ass scratching, swineherds. Your boss might be more sympathetic.
