Hello @OccultaVexillum !
Unfortunately, we have run out of fabric to produce more of this cardigan.
However, I can suggest this alternative which is in the same fabric and the same pattern but in a painter’s jacket version:
Painter's jacket - Fine wool crepe - Taupe checks - De Bonne Facture1.jpg

----

Also due to high demand, we have decided to launch few pieces of our cardigan jackets in brown checks.
Delivery end of September

Only for the Styleforum Community, here is the exclusive link to buy it before the official launch (very limited quantities):

I remain at your disposal.

Best,

Nicolas

Hi Nicholas, no chance of a 52 in the brown checks either? I’d definitely be down for buying one if it was available. Thanks!

No 52 unfortunately, but the fit is oversized. I suggest you try the size 50 instead (free express exchange & returns if needed) :)

Great, thank you. I had forgotten you had free returns, so I think I will probably try it to see if I can make it work. Will you have any stockists (besides Mr. Porter) for either the taupe or brown checks in size 50 or above?

I cannot express in words how much I adore my Pecora Nera sweater from last season. I don't know if I need two, but I encourage everyone interested to give it a shot.

Thank you @Nicolas DBF
It’s more the cardigan jacket silhouette that I’m interested in than the fabric/pattern.
And unfortunately I missed the other colour as well.
So will there not be any stockists that will have either of these colours of the cardigan jacket in a 52 or 50?
