Do you know who bought it?

No idea. I can’t be the first person on SF to notice, though? I assumed more people read this mag.

 

[smittycl]

With a suit. Maybe a black grenadine and charcoal suit?

Black grenadine would look good.

My deliveries got so spoty I stopped checking.

Yeah, I lost track as well. One of the opening editorials said this issue was for October. I see the cover of the next one is out already as well. Whatever.

 

[TheSuitBurnsBetter]

Rub a dryer sheet on your socks and/or the inside of the trousers.

This worked like a charm. Thanks for the suggestion!

 

[TheSuitBurnsBetter]

Is there a suggested style (notch vs. peak) for lapels on waistcoats? Should they be consistent with the jacket lapels?

 

[clee1982]

if the suit is peak lapel then no lapel waist coat or peak lapel waist coat

if it's DB waist coat, then peak

if the suit is notch whatever you feel like for waist coat?

though I would say if you're wearing the waistcoat as part of 3 piece only, then better just go no lapel, a bit busy with lapelled waist coat under suit

I admire Anglo Italian's refreshing sobriety.

 

[othertravel]

It’s sober, which is nice, but the fits seem odd.

 

[clee1982]

I thought fit is normal, it's just more normal people less model?

Fit was full but sort of "off" as well a bit for me.

 

[clee1982]

their hip all look big, but I thought that's just kind what it is

 

[gimpwiz]

Maybe the fit is surprisingly ... full? heavy? for Italian cuts that we're used to running slimmer and softer. Now that you mention it, I see what you mean. See especially the flaring at the bottoms of the jackets looking more like an A, and the bulky appearances of the overcoats.

So, I've unsubscribed from all vendor email lists except for Fox Brothers. Can't seem to shake them. Would this make a great sport coat or the greatest sport coat?
