Just picked up the summer high twist suit and a drakes scarf. Fingers crossed that the pants aren't too slim, or at least there's enough fabric to let it out a bit if need be. My 3rd purchase from you guys, keep up the good work!

Fingers crossed! Best skip leg day to be sure. There is some fabric to be let out.

Very glad to hear that you like what we do! Thanks for the support!

Hahahah..we’ll see..btw, the brown/blue Attolini is awesome. It’s much subtler than the website pics. The blue stripes are barely visible in-person and the brown is almost matted. It’’s astonishing how the web pics are so different from the actual product, although I’d be happy either way. And the material is also amazing crisp and soft. It refuses to wrinkle. Unfortunately, I am WFH so I won’t get to wear it this summer, but it is stunning and clearly made to last many years.

It is a fantastic jacket! The fabric plays very differently depending on light. The studio pics probably bring out the colors more. Attolinis exclusive fabrics usually have very good color combinations.


Glad you like it! And I am sure you’ll get plenty of wear out of it.

I remembered that Sebastian called me a few years ago and had a long chat about the fit of a suit that I ended up returning. Emailed him directly last Sunday at a late hour about the fit of your soft chiseled last. Got an answer in less than an hour where he recommended me going with the same size as my Capital last from Loake. I ordered the shoes today, hopefully they'll fit perfectly and I'll finally have a black cap toe oxford in my collection.

Glad Midsommar och Glad Sankt Hans!

Lets hope they work out well and live up to your expectations! Always good to have a Black captoe in the rotation.

Sebastian is very good at keeping an empty inbox.

Glad midtsommar back atcha!?

are the suit sleeves length alterable? i'm most afraid of the jacket's faux buttonholes (do all models of the cavour suit have faux button holes? that means it's not alterable...)

The sleeves are alterable, and we actually had the factory change their standard faux buttonholes to make them easier for a tailor to take out without leaving tracks in the fabric.

so to confirm all the cavour line suits on the website are able to alter the sleeve lengths?

Yup. If anything very delicate super 150s and upwatds fabrics may bea little tricky, depending on the skill of the tailor.
But there are not so many of those in the lineup.

Wool Silk Linen Summertime Suit

Made for the warmer part of the year, this blend of materials has been crafted for you to feel flexible and easy in the summer. The blend makes it durable and more crease-resistant than a pure linen suit would be. The jacket features a three-roll-two button closure, slightly extended shoulders...

cavour.co

This looks great especially at the discount. Could I get some more in depth detail, being a potential new customer. Any got measurements?

There is a measurement chart on Cavour's website --- some of the suit webpages have a "Size Guide" link that you can click. For the particular model you are asking about, I don't see the "Size Guide" listed. Not sure if Cavour has all of its suits made following the size chart, but would be good to know.

This is a full canvas construction, same as with all Cavour suits. They all follow the same measurement chart.

the fabric is from a Loro Piana bunch called Summertime. Wool, Linen and silk.

I was never much of a shorts guy, and certainly not a cargo shorts guy.

But as both my age ant the current temperature is above 30, I have been living in this pair of Green linen cargo shorts

Do you have measurements for these?

@kevinsvindland My favourite fit on trousers has been from Natalino, I haven't purchased from Cavour before, but wondering how your trousers would fit in comparison? I'm also looking at purchasing either the Brown Summer Hopsack Suit or/and the Wool Silk Linen Summertime Suit. Out of the two, what do you think would be more versatile?

I have no experience with Natalino, so I am unable to compare. But our fit is on the slim side, the rise is average (atleast by scandinavian standards).

Between the two I prefer the hopsack. The Summertime is a pure summer fabric that looks Odd if broken up, whereas the Hopsack can probably be mixed and matched with other trousers/jackets.

And for those of us in Sweden, what's the delivery and returns time like? If I purchased today, received in two days and hypothetically it doesn't fit so I return it, how long would I expect to receive the refund (using klarna)?

Usually the refunds are done in a couple of working days after the refund was processed on our end. All depends on which bank/card you have. (Although I do nok know any specifics for each and every card)
If you check out on Klarna credit, the 14 day invoice is simply cancelled if the item is returned.
