There's one for sale on Grailed. (The Carlos jacket that is; either a 42 or 44)

Did EIDOS do any Casentino this season or the Adamo jacket? If not, anyone have one they want to part with at some time? Do they generally run TTS / fit akin to Tipo or Balthazar cuts? (i.e. get same size you would in those suits)

Last question: Was there actually a place that sold them in orange, and if so, where/when was this? I kind of want to hunt this down.

To my untrained eye, it looks fairly similar to EIDOS ones I've seen, but the pockets look different.

Looks awesome. What is the fit like on this coat? is it TTS or is this similar to DB Ulster? Also is it fully lined?

Edit 4.0 deluxe*

I like this Eidos Carlo coat. The picture is stolen from Eidos lookbook AW16.

I wish I took the picture and I wish I was the model.:bounce2:

That is the original one I developed. It was a sample, nobody bought that colorway. I changed the pockets after two seasons.

Ah! Understood. Thanks for the heads up both of you! It looks super awesome.

That's a bit of a shame - I love those bright type of colors, but I kind of understand why retailers shy away from them (have an awesome FSC yellow denim jacket that cost virtually nothing at Bloomingdale's in NYC since I guess it didn't sell)... kind of bummed to have found it and be unable to get the orange one (but totally would if it magically turned up haha)

Do you have any Adamo style jackets in casentino you sent out this season? I see a corduroy one at NMWA.

Orange is not an uncommon color for Casentino cloth coats. You may want to look at traditional European retailers for one.

I remember seeing an orange casentino Eidos hunting jacket in size 40 (probably a sample) a few years at an Isaia/Eidos sample sale. I would have bought it if it were in my size even though I don't like the hunting jacket style.

Orange is actually the original color of casentino (the green was developed second) and that silhouette is a style traditional to the region the fabric is produced.

I stopped offering the casentino a few seasons back, although I found and indigo one from Laneficio Faisa that almost made it into NY Blues.

I wonder what is going to happen to this affiliate thread.
