Exactly what I’m referring to. Great jackets!

The tux is interesting. Rake's new tailored collection. Made in Puglia? What factories are there?

Not sure I want Spalla Camicia on a tux.

I have it on the Eidos dinner jackets. Hardly noticeable.

I guess I have zero experience with that in reality. My tux is RLBL with fairly bold shoulders. White dinner jacket is BB Fitzgerald fit.

Hi guys, I'm looking for a nice fall/winter Tweed blazer. I'm in the Northeast. Suit Supply doesn't have the classic Tweed jacket - what do folks recommend? O'Connell's is a bit pricey at ~900. I'm looking more in the 300-500 range. Thanks!

Definitely not.

Gotta say, as much as I like spalla camicia, a nice classic broad shouldered tux is really nice. Definitely has presence, which is very fitting for black tie.

+1 for spier and mackay at that price range

I have to agree, I would feel like it needs something more at the shoulders. As an alternative, I have one dinner jacket with cigarette shoulders - adds some subtle flamboyance.

This is the RLBL tux I own (although clearly not me in pic!). I greatly prefer structure in the shoulder. It is “formal” wear after all.

Black Label was a great line while it lasted. Nothing looked like it and occupied the same value, price point. It’s too bad it didn’t involve because I thought it filled a nice place in menswear.
