About 2 seasons back, ShopTheFinest got a bunch of Borrelli fall/winter outwear that was using this material (this is an item that's still on STF from that batch) - it's a handsome 100% wool, grey-ish/brown'ish/cream flecked tic weave:

from http://www.shopthefinest.com/p-56168-luigi-borrelli-beige-jacket-size-40-us-50-eu.aspx:

I purchased a vest from STF that season in that material that is just flat out fantastic - all wool like the material above, nice detailing, 100% filled with some mix of down+feathers (I can't quite remember %s). The vest was a serious contended to be mistaken for something Brunello Cucinelli would do.

I happen to notice one pop up on Yoox in a size40. It's a bit more than it was on STF, but maybe a sale/code will fix that for you. Unfortunately, the Yoox pics really don't do it justice (what else is new). I'm only pointing it out because I can vouch for it being a super cool piece. Even at the current yoox price of $500 it's worth it if you're actually in the market for an insanely priced vest from BC, Zegna, or Brioni, you should check this out.

From yoox: http://www.yoox.com/us/41448085CV/item?dept=men#sts=sr_men80&cod10=41448085CV&sizeId=4

Hope this helps someone!

Deeply discounted Inis Meain sweaters at East Dane, particularly after the extra 25% off.

Yours is sweet, but a wool one like mine versus the leather one like yours are much different animals. The real big timer would score both :slayer:
