Ditto to that. I quite like the shape of their ties. Still decently wide at the knot for good dimple and length is a bit shorter which ended up being my perfect length.

One of the dudes on here who goes to Pitti should drop in on Mr Albizzati sometime, see if they can get something going...

I don't know if this is a particularly good ad for Mr Johnson's tailoring:

I am probably biased but I think that Tom pulls off the casual suit look much more effortlessly then Pat...

I think Pat tends to go a wee bit too tight on everything.

I could see Superga's (or any canvas shoe) working with an un-structured cotton suit with a polo underneath, In summer but don't imagine it to ever work with a shirt and tie. Winter calls for proper lace up shoes or at the very least some chukka's if you want to casualize it. IMO of course.

FWIW, Pat is someone who likes to mess with so-called convention, push the envelope a little and see what happens.

When he wants to, he can go ultra-CBD sharp. Occasionally however, he enjoys putting something out there that makes people go: What the heck??!!

It's just who he is.

Personally, having dealt with him on multiple occasions, I think he's a really nice guy with passion for his craft and an excellent sense of humour.

I dont mind it. Its not a look for everyone (i wouldnt be able to pull it off) but i reckon good on him for pushing the "rules".

 

Ive seen him in the jacket, has plenty of movement .. i think it was just pulling on the button

The number equates to you chest circumferance in inches - so if you have a 44 inch chest you should, in theory, wear a size 44 suit.

As body shape and cut of suit vary considerably, this should be taken as a rough guide only. With your proportions I would think a 44 may be too big for you, but if you go down a size, you could need some alterations in the jacket.

Just going by the pic it looks way too tight - not just button pulling, but the lapels are bowing out. But that might be the look he is going for I guess.
