I posted those photos on the fly and to be honest, I completely screwed up the colour balance. The blue is not nearly as intense. This is a more accurate representation. Sorry about that.




Was thinking the first set look more electric blue! The new photos you posted seem far more similar to the site.

Thinking of pairing this with a darker brown tie, do you reckon it'll match well?

It's still not 100% correct, but close enough.

I think so. Pair it with a chocolate brown shantung tie, suede loafers and light brown slacks, and baby you got a stew going. But others might disagree.

Pretty much what I was thinking. Got some white chinos to try it out with too.

And don't forget to shorten those jacket sleeves enough to show shirt cuff.

Is it just me or is inventory an issue this time? I'm looking for a navy overcoat and a navy sienna suit and get nothing in my size... anyone know if they will restock?


Was in contact with them via Twitter, DMd back and forth with various model numbers that were listed as out of stock. They informed me one I had asked about specifically was "in transit" and I could pre-order. It was one of the Napoli models, don't recall which exactly. Might be worth it for you to hit them up over social media or email and ask if more are coming and to hold one at your local store.

Just got back from Amsterdam. Their Willemsparkweg location is nice, was very busy when I popped in on Saturday afternoon. Unfortunately the Sienna suit I tried on wasn't going to work. The 46 regular (euro size) jacket was too small and sizing up meant the tailoring alone would make the price unreasonable for both the jacket/trousers.

They walked me across the street and I ended up doing 2 Made to Measure full canvas suits, $629 euro a piece, Super 110 VBC wool, charcoal grey and a mid grey. Needed two workhorse suits or I would've gone with S130 for $740 euro a piece if I remember correctly. Ordered and paid for in Amsterdam, shipping to DC where I'll do the final fitting, expected arrival date is toward the end of April. If I had stayed with the S130 that I originally priced out it would've been mid May, the reasoning was they would have to order the fabric from their mill in Italy, hence the delay.

The current euro to dollar rate is so good you almost can't afford not to get suits there. I got it at a 1.07 rate.

If anyone ever stops into Amsterdam MTM ask for Oliver, he's great.

I tried one of the linen jackets at SS Las Vegas store.
The fabric is actually of good quality. I told the saleslady I worry about wrinkling as I will use this 2-3 times per work week.
She advised going with all season wool instead.

What's even the point of a linen jacket if not for its wrinkly, loosely-woven nature?

If you have time to get your jacket pressed regularly, or even have a steam iron, keeping the wrinkles to a minimum is easy! I find letting the jacket rest for a day between wears also helps.

The whatsapp customer chat is pretty awesome, cheers for those that pointed that out to me.

Some restocks coming at the end of the month across a few lines apparently.
