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).
I don't know how import duties work where you live, but where I live, there is a process to claim back the VAT (without the courier fees).
Usually the courier is familiar with the process.

I dont have the jacket at hand. But measurements are quite similar to that of our Mod 2 Jacket.
Obviously not the same pattern, but if the measurements of our jacket checks out, it should be pretty good.

How would you say the Orazio pattern differs from Mod 2?
