Anyone heard of Sartoria Cavaliere or SARTIN? Appear to be Sartoria Partenopea successors

Was looking at one of my Partenopea suits and noticed the garment tag mentioned both Sartoria Cavaliere and SARTIN. Based on some searching I found this:


It appears that Cavaliere was founded by a couple of brothers who used to work at Sartoria Partenopea; SARTIN appears to be their manufacturing facility? My Googling also seemed to suggest a number of Partenopea workers now worked for Cavaliere.

My Partenopea suit has Cavaliere listed as the client, but perhaps that is just a quirk. It appears Cavaliere/SARTIN are a continuation of Partenopea, or perhaps were one of their sub-contractors?

Can anyone with more knowledge than me shed any light on this? My suit seems to be excellent quality, but I'm not the best judge of this. Has anyone heard of these guys and the quality of the product, or know of their relationship to Sartoria Partenopea?

I reached out to the team and they responded saying that they make similar clothes, and employ the same designer (cutter?) and director as Partenopea. My suit seems every bit as good as my NOS Partenopea items, with similar fits too, so I suppose this isn't surprising.

It's unfortunate that SP never really took off. Their clothes are top-notch, definitely on a similar level to Orazio Luciano or Kiton. Sadly, it went bust almost right before classic menswear starting to gain more traction. Well, they live on as good deals on eBay :D
