Hi @kevinsvindland I notice Cavour put up a few more suits on sale. Can you tell us a bit more about them, like the S150 Luxury Striped Suit and the Wool-Silk seersucker. What's the difference in fabric between the Luxury High Twist suit and the other high twist suits? I already own the Winter High Twist. Thanks!

The first two are LP fabrics, I do not remember the exact weight, But somewhere around 250-280.

The high twists are all from different VBC bunches. The one called Luxury is lighter and slightly more densely woven.
Rangling between 250 and 310g.

@kevinsvindland do you have the measurements for those Linen Herringbone Trousers that're currently on sale?

Only in italian, But the illustrations should help.

Thanks for the details Kevin! A complete steal for LP fabrics, and full canvas too.

My best fitting shoes are on the Loake lasts Capital and Tower. Do I take the same size on the Soft Chisel last that you have? Eyeing the black cap toe oxford.

I am not familiar with Loake lasts, But perhaps someone can chime in?

I wear the same size as I do in my C&J and EG shoes.

Yes, the new RTW model is fully canvassed. About the same pricepoint as now. Also depending on fabrics, as usual.

looking forward to seeing the final results of the new model!

Our new model is 76cm in a sz50, graded by one cm pr size. Two cm longer than our current one.

Who knows what the future will bring..

For now we will leave it up to DHL to navigate all the one way streets and steep hills of Bergen.

NYC showroom?

The summer high twist trousers look to have a regular rise waist. Do you have any plans to introduce high-rise trousers in the future?

Im also curious about the dimensions of the Cavour line of shoes. Would love to try your captoe oxford suede in my size when they get restocked...they will be re-stocked right? ?

Yes, the new suit trouser model is a little higher on the rise. It will also be available in some odd trouser options.

As for the shoes, there are no new deliveries in the near future. But maybe down the road.

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!

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.

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...)

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!

Haven't received the suit yet, but the 2 sportscoat i have from them have faux buttonholes. They are alterable, but i guess it depends how long or short you need it to be
