Can anyone comment on this suit?

I don't want to trash his thread with discussion.

Any opinions on Canali in general are also appreciated.

I love Canali suits and think theey are a great steal when they are on sale or adeal on Ebay.

The price for your suit is great. I'd buy it for that price.

Canali makes a nice suit, but it doesn't work as well on me as Corneliani.

Canali also makes some really funky sportcoats.

canali is still a family owned business, with high quality fabrics and construction coming out of their italian factories. can find good prices on sale fomr around 300-500 range. it's more classic and not so slim fit though, from my own experiences with working in the suits department at nordstrom.

and i also prefer corneliani over canali; nordstrom stopped selling them years ago, idk why...

I think Canali is one of my favorite suits, second only to Isaia for me. Sure there are suits out there with more handwork and better fabrics, but Canali fits me perfectly and the price is hard to beat. There are a couple of different model lines, each with different fits, so it pays to know which works best for your build.

Canali fits me well in the 2xxxx model. The 1xxxx model is more structured while the 2xxx is more soft.

Thanks for the opinions. Maybe I should wait and try one on in person before I take a gamble on the internet. The suit is exactly what I'm looking for, but I've never worn a Canali suit so I don't really know what I'm getting when it comes to these different models.

I should say both models fit me well, I just prefer one over the other.
