Suits: Pal Zileri Edition!

pal-zileri-collezione-autunno-inverno-17-01.jpg


This brand doesn't get enough love on the forum, so here are some great pieces for your consideration:

1. PAL ZILERI SARTORIALE SUMMER SUIT 36/ 46

463123-79e0434c079ec23fcc4baa96b31ac9ff.jpg


The Sartoriale line is top shelf and features a tonne of hand work and other bells and whistles. Would have kopped this for myself, but the waist is too small for me :angry:

Also, @Ich_Dien is a great seller.

2. NWT PAL ZILERI 'ABITO PRIVATO' SU MISURA SOLID CHARCOAL SUIT US40 38/EU50

A nice staple for your consideration. Good for job interviews or hitting the pub (or cafe) after work!

Thanks again to @jrd617 for this idea. I'll contribute to the suit side of things with the following parameters:

1. Suits must be NWT
2. Must meet the SF consensus on quality (either full or half canvassed, classic styles, etc...).

Suits: Ralph Edition!

M2M_Brands_PL_Hero.jpg


B&S has been pretty slow on outstanding NWT offerings lately, but one just popped up:

NWT RALPH LAUREN PURPLE LABEL CHARCOAL STRIPED 3PC SUIT 36R

468728-f76cdc50ccb2c4725df81fbd10b11685.jpg


468724-4b50af81b570c0c673e0bb6a13081012.jpg


This is a garment from the real Purple Label (not the rebranded Black Label) and is of excellent quality. I have one Purple Label piece, and it's covered in handwork. Also, look at the lapels on that vest!
@TC_mapezzz , let me know if you get a 38R in this.
