@kevinsvindland have you thought about making an overcoat with a down-filled liner/membrane?
I tried one on years ago (think it was Herno) and it was amazing! I regret not buying it ever since 🥲

We had one in a previous collection. And might do another one next fall, if we find nice and suitable fabrics.

Also often found in Herno and Aspesi collections.

@kevinsvindland Kevin, are you expecting to release any house brand oatmeal jackets?

Looking at this Orazio Luciano beauty - the shade of oatmeal is just right - but honestly the price of that is quite near bespoke jacket levels - which does kind of defeat the purpose.

There are no oatmeal jackets in our collection this season.

I see your point of view, however, will light this torch: If really good RTW fits you, it kinda defeats the purpose of bespoke, no?

This pattern from Orazio Luciano is pure 90s Kiton heritage. Surely worth an extra penny if you are into these things.

Edit: Also, a Kiton jacket today, costs about 120% more than this one does.🤷🏻‍♂️

@kevinsvindland about how many cm in-lay is there in the side seams on your jackets to let them out?
I have a friend I'm helping reboot his tailored wardrobe and am considering having him order one of your house jackets to try—the shoulders should be great in his size, and if we can let out the side seams, I think it might work well otherwise, but just depends on the allowance built in.

thanks in advance!

Great idea!

A few cm on each side, and the same in the center seam.

Sweet, thanks. We found an Isaia jacket locally that had a perfect fit in the shoulders, but it was their super slim Cortina model with zero inlay in the seams. But he fell in love with it. He loved the spalla camicia and could tell the difference from the American brands he's bought in the past. so i'm looking for jackets with a similar shoulder stance and Italian details, but with a more generous fit. I'm also considering Orazio (and tbh if I were more certain about those Dalcuore jackets you have, it's his size that's still in stock; I just don't want him to pay the import duties if they don't work out).
