The Gian Luca line has some hand-finished details and claims to be a canvas construction. Can anyone comment on this brand in terms of quality, fabric etc. I understand it is not at the high-end of MTM but it looks like it could be equivalent to Corneliani.

Thanks in advance

Could anyone post a picture of the label of the lower end "Gian Luca" suits -- perhaps from eBay? The names are so similar that I don't know if I could tell the difference.

They aren't canvas front. They do have pick-stitched lapels, though I can't remember if they were handpicked, probably not. The best thing about them is the cut - it's not bad, with a very natural shoulder.
