Hey guys, I don’t actually type here so much but I really some help to buy a nice jacket. I’m looking for some streetwear jacket from one of this brands, and of course I have the designs that I want. Could you guys help me with honesty opinion about it? It’s a Zegna fog nubuck overshirt, Berluti suede leather bomber jacket and brioni suede blouson. Thanks

I don’t care at all for how the berluti jacket has the brand name logo on it. Makes it look cheap.

I’d go Brioni or Zegna.

I'd wear the crap out of the Brioni. As far as the Berluti, what ^he ^ said...not a fan.

Thank you, guys! How about the quality? Between them, whos the best? Thanks!
Ps: Ive always wore Gucci, Balenciaga, Valentino. Always paying for something without quality, so this will be my first piece from a renowned quality brand, I think.

Brioni makes some of the best quality men’s clothes in the world. Leagues above Gucci and Balenciaga. Zegna is pretty good too if it’s mainline. I’d go with the Brioni, personally.

I’d frankly avoid brands like Gucci and Balenciaga in the future and focus on Brioni, Kiton, Attolini, Isaia, Borrelli, Tom Ford, Ravazzolo, Cifonelli, Stefano Ricci (if it’s not too gaudy, they are known for that) and Zegna (mainline not the cheap stuff like Z Zegna). I own clothing from all these and more and can attest they are quality stuff that Gucci and Balenciaga don’t hold a candle to.

Try a suit on from Gucci then try a Kiton - Kiton is out of this world compared to popular designer suits. Same with Brioni.

Your money would be much better spent on the brands I mentioned above than anything from the well-known “designer” labels like Gucci who can slap a Gucci logo on a polyester jacket and people will pay $4,000 for it.

I don't like how the Brioni looks on that model but it may well look better in person. To me it is cut too straight in the body. The chest looks to be the same diameter as the waist. That style of jacket looks better with more volume in the body. Compare that to how the Berluti jacket is cut. I also don't really like the contrast rib knitting at the cuffs and waist but to each their own.

Guys, first of all, appreciate all the messages and opinions, thanks a lot!
Let me ask about sizing, as I mentioned before, never had any clothes of those brands, so, I'm a guy with 185lbs (84kg) and 6ft (1.83m), 43 inches (110cm) chest, broad shoulders because I workout. In brands such Brioni, Zegna, should I go for a regular size like 50it or bigger ones like 54-56it? Thanks!

Well, once I bought myself a jacket Berluti, but I didn’t like it, the quality is not at all what is described on the Internet

50 IT sounds too small for a 43" chest. No matter what size you think you are, you'd definitely want to either try on in person (ideally) or get the garment measurements and compare to something you already have that fits well.

Berluti makes very, very high quality shoes (often far too gaudy to my tastes, I prefer Lobb and Bontoni) but I don’t think their clothes are all that good from what I hear.

Ребята, прежде всего ценю все сообщения и мнения, спасибо большое!
предложил мне задать вопрос о размерах, как я уже упоминал ранее, у меня никогда не было одежды этих брендов, поэтому у меня вес 185 фунтов (84 кг), рост 6 футов (1,83 м), грудь 43 дюйма (110 см) и широкие плечи, потому что я уверен. . В таких брендах, как Brioni, Zegna, следует ли мне поставить обычный размер, например 50it, или больший, например 54-56it? Спасибо!

54 56 Too big for you. I think size 50 is yours. If your body is athletic

Guys, first off all, thanks for all the reply’s and messages! Appreciate! I just bought the Brioni and I’m really happy with my choice! Appreciate.
Now, let me ask another question, what you guys think about this Zegna suede overshirt? I just found one for 70% off, what you say? Is it worth? I have the money for it, I just don’t know if it’s worth for the price and quality. I know it’s Zegna, but anyway… thanks!
