Sartoria Formosa Navy Nailhead

venividivicibj · Jun 5, 2015

From a NoManWalksAlone pre-order, retail $2,187.

"Part of a unique set of handmade suits we commissioned from bespoke Naples tailor Formosa, this single-breasted navy suit is cut from a beautiful lightweight wool cloth: Harrisons Mystique, and tailored with all the hallmarks of Formosa's style & details. It combines the cooling properties of lighter weight wool, quarter-lined construction and the soft hand and good body of typical sartorial cloths."

Size 50 Jacket, Size 50 pants (the 34.4 inch waist ones). Measurements are below.

Harrison's Mystique Navy nailhead, 8/9 oz weight.

Selling because it is too similar to another suit I have just received. This suit has never been tailored, buttons for the cuffs have not even been sewn on yet.

Shipping included to the US.

Great deal for someone on an awesome suit. I have the grey nailhead with blue windowpane version. The Harrison's Mystique is a light, open weave that's ideal for warm weather. GLWS.

How tall are you? I ask because all the measurements are good (the chest may be small and the pants waist needs to be taken in an inch to an inch and a half), but the length seems long. Is that length beneath the collar? I'm 5'9'' and am worried that the jacket may be too long.

I'm 5-11 if that helps, so I don't think it should be too far off from you.

Very nice suit. We should just do a swap. Never mind, my size is different.

Greetings, i'm looking at this exact suit (grey nailhead, blue windowpane). Since you own the suit, I would really appreciate your opinion on a few questions I have:

1. Versatility - is it a 4-season fabric?
2. Feel - How would you describe the drape and hand of the fabric? Is the windowpane versatile?
3. Value - $2k for a suit of any name is not chump change.....is the cut and detail top notch?
4. Buttoned fly - I noticed all Fermosa suits on NMWA have buttons vs. zippers for the fly....does this grow old or no big deal?

This is a solid blue nailhead, as written in the description, not a grey windowpane, are you still interested?

I would consider this a 3 season fabric, with a great feel. Considerable handwork, and button fly (I prefer button fly)

Sorry, originally meant the message for Mr. Six. I may be interested, but I know the measurements can differ from what is posted on the NMWA site given limited production and hand cut design. If you could provide actual measurements for the below, I would appreciate it:

Coat:
· Shoulder (seam to seam)
· Chest across
· Waist across
· Sleeve (shoulder seam to end)

Pants:
· Waist (laid flat)
· Inseam
· Crotch (front rise)
· Thigh
· Knee
· Opening

Sent you a PM so as not to derail vvvbj's thread with discussion of a different suit.
