Still working on the other options. As of now, the Dugdale ones look to be the best we have. Pricing is a concern though.

Given the high increase in fabric costs, a bulk buy can probably work as a good option.

We can do 10 pants at 20% discount, so $349.99 becomes $279.99

Hahahahaha. I wish I could drop nearly $3k on trousers. I’ll hold off til Black Friday and try to get 10-15% on like 5 pairs.

Ever heard of placing a group order? You dont need to buy all 10 if you get others to commit to buying them. I've seen quite a few of similar group "projects" arranged in this thread.

I have ran a few of them with Minnis Fresco, I would be up for that. I would want the heavier weight 21oz. in Navy or Olive.

I agree that the price is a concern. You have a lot of nice and expensive summer fabrics and the dugdale cav twill as an expensive winter fabric. I would love to see a reasonably priced, mid-weight 10-13 Oz, 3-4 season option in several colors. Something like this from minnis in several colors.

Luxire, how do the Brembana fabrics compare to Canclini offerings and/or to the Grandi & Rubinelli fabrics you used to use?

Not sure what the go is on the tobacco linen @luxire is sourcing, but I'm looking to order some trousers in this https://www.dugdalebros.com/Plain/product/7311-dug1259/colour/100_linen_lt_brown/page/214/ 9.8oz linen from Dugdale. I have a jacket in it and it's fantastic, so I thought I might as well see if anybody else wants to jump in - trouser price is $250.

Just pulled the trigger on the trial pants. Can't wait to get started on this journey with Luxire.

@luxire - I, too, am curious about the quality of the Brembana shirts. Can you comment on how they compare to past offerings of Canclini, Albini, and G&R?

Fit looks great! What was your method for measuring etc?

Not sure if it's just the photos, but there seem to be a couple of shiny patches on the back?

Probably his dress shirt showing through since the fabric is Fresco

I sent in an MTM jacket I like but that's unfortunately getting a bit tight. The chest, back and sleeve tightness of the new jacket might be copy-paste errors from the replicated jacket. I did the at home trial option, but the first trial was far from good, so I purchased a second trial. The second one showed some potential, but many details were still off. Like the shoulders. The replicated jacket has fairly unstructured shoulders but with a slight bit of roping. I asked for even less roping. Both trials had extremely large and puffy roping even though I repeatedly asked them to knock it down. I was pleasantly surprised when the finished jacket arrived with soft natural shoulders!

Correct, the Fresco is quite sparse, but not at all as bad as it might seem in these photos. The lighting conditions were bad (it's hard to catch some decent day light this time of the year in Sweden) so I had to turn up the brightness and contrast which resulted in the "shiny patches".
