What's the story on these makes....I saw a bit of handwork in their jackets today. Do they make a good garment?

A local store Guffey's is selling St. Andrew's trousers for $400. Are these good trousers?

Thanks.

Not familiar with Ravazallo but Saint Andrews is an extremely high quality brand, from reading these boards. They make RLPL's tailored line. If you want to pay 400 bucks for a pair of trousers, you aren't going to find too many brands that are going to top St. Andrews..

I ran "st. andrew's" through the search function and did not find anything...maybe my technique was wrong.

Probably the apostrophe foiled you.

I didn't mean to be harsh. I just wanted an excuse to dredge up that smiley.

I still feel that Borrelli jackets have the most visible handwork.

Wanted to revive this thread instead of making a new one.

I know of the delicacy of purple label (and thus st. Andrews) but I haven't seen much detailed info on ravazzolo.

I consistently hear it is a very high end and qualitative rtw brand for suits.

Do they have separate lines or just have one single line and how has their quality changed over the years?
