    Dalcuore make a coat on the shorter side I see. Similar to what Solito does for me. What fabric is your suit? The trousers hang very nicely.

    I use both currently. Different kettle of fish. One is entirely machine-made, very high-quality fusing and tight stitching, extremely consistent. The other is partially hand-made (hand-attached sleeves, hand-made buttonholes, etc.). I prefer the collars LA does for me, and AC probably...

    Fresco III, 9/10Oz. The Smith is heavier if you are after something heavier.

    Yes the jacket belongs to a suit. Hence the jetted pockets. I have a patch-pocket blazer in Dark Navy Mock Leno also.

    Yes, Solito.

    This is 510258 (second darkest blue in the 2-Ply range), and personally I wish I went 510259. It's actually quite bright still in sunlight, and I would have preferred a darker shade. I find clothing always comes out lighter than you imagine it when ordering from swatches.

    Awesome. Yes I was going to see them in London, but when they offered me the MTM Product (no fittings) as an alternative (albeit at a cheaper price), I was a bit off-put. I am currently using Solito and happy with the outcome, particularly given 2 fittings are always done for every jacket.

    Very nice, can I ask Re: Dalcuore, are you having another fitting or will they complete the garment for you now?

    Are you in the US? By finishings, you mean handwork?

    Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread

    I'd love to hear your thoughts on how they compare? I'm using Solito now that they are visiting London every month. It's all coming along very nicely.

    Interesting, did he simply think that Dugdale is the best? Did he elaborate on why?

    Not sure who makes it. I bought a piece from a large roll at Caccioppoli in June 2015.
