Better quality: St. Andrews (RLPL) or Brioni?

[imageWIS]

Which is better made? St. Andrews (and RLPL) or Brioni? In terms of suits, jackets and trousers.

St Andrews probably has a range of higher end makes, depending on whether the product has its own label or those of a designer who dictates the specs.

Brioni only makes for Brioni, AFAIK.

Both very well made. More a choice of style than quality of make.

I got into an argument where the person stated that he knew RLPL isn't worth the retail price vs the Brioni at retail and I told him that it was, thus I came here for clarification.

They are about the same in terms of construction. Check out Jeffery's blog.

I dont think you can go wrong with either. My personal preference is St Andrews, but not because of quality, just fit.

Regards.

Well the Brioni name carries alot more weight outside of the clothing enthusiast community because of Bond, Trump, Anan, Gable, Grant, Wayne and so on, so you have to factor that into your friends argument. Like others have said though from a value point of view and it really pains me to say that because retail for those two brands are like 4-6k, you cant go wrong with either.
