Wow, that green jacket is very cool! And the blue is beautiful. May I ask who tailored these lovely garments for you, and what the inspiration was for the pocket on the sleeve?
The sleeve pocket wasn’t an original idea. I saw it on a Cifonelli jacket a long time ago. The green jacketing has surface interest but no pattern. So I thought that adding this small sprez on this jacket would work well.

And yes, the Neapolitan tailor is Tofani.

My first double breasted jacket. Still needs ironing and some finishing touches.

Incoming from Pastena. The fabric is a 280/290 oz brown Drago fabric. Side adjusters will be added to the pants.

I may order another odd jacket in February. I'm thinking about an odd jacket in Casentino wool.
I am deciding on an odd jacket as well. I have a limited Fox tweed and Marling & Evans 50/50 Wool Linen. Either I send both those in or sell both to fund new fabrics.

Biggest decision is Fox Tweed (left) or Porter & Harding (Right)

Not a big windowpane fan (at least for myself), but my vote is for the Fox.
