    FS: Sartoria Paone dark grey Harris tweed jacket

    You are looking at a lightly used bespoke jacket by Sartoria Paone. Gennaro Paone, ex-Rubinacci head cutter, made this for me a few years ago. Condition is excellent and it drapes like iron. I don't really use it much given our weather in HK has gotten warmer in winter. Cloth: Dark grey...
