Hey thanks Viral and WhyUEarly! Insane turnaround on the q&a, love a long weekend. I live on 14th/Ave A, so I'll check out both the Stanton street one (as well as the ones around orchard, which if I had to guess would be closer to canal) as well as that Flatiron shop.

Should have read more slowly, not toward canal at all.

@kevinsvindland Can you tell us a bit about the Cavour leather bags? They look beautiful but hard to pull the trigger without at least dimensions or some copy describing the product a bit.

From what I can see on our site there is a description, but dimensions are indeed missing.

Is there a particular one you are looking at? And I can measure one for you.

They are all handmade in Modena, in a factory that supplies several French and Italian houses.
And the leather is calf from a French tannery.

Is size guide on pants accurate? EU46 has leg opening 17.5cm which is like 6.9in definitely too slim for me...

edit that’s mod 2, and mod 1 is actually slightly wider at 18cm (still too narrow for me)... then their Rota is at 18.5cm, that’s passable but still narrower than I like

Thanks Kevin, the 24 hour bag and brief case caught my eye. Something else that I consider for bags is weight. As much as I admire some of the beautiful all leather bags like Frank Clegg, it can feel slight impractical when the empty bag can already be 5lbs.

@kevinsvindland Do you honor price adjustments for the discount code? Purchased the LP herringbone tweed yesterday without the code and it's still available in my size.

Here are some pics of seams on the mod 2.

6 cm to let out in the waist. 5 cm on the inside of the trouser leg and 2-3 cm on the outside.

My mod2 in size 52 have a 19 cm leg opening. But there is a lot to let out. See my post above..
