Up for sale is an incredible Napoli Su Misura bespoke sportcoat. It was made for me. I usually wear a size 40R in off-the-rack from brands like Sartoria Partenopea, Zegna mainline, Corneliani, Caruso, Canali, Belvest, etc . (See full measurements below) NSM needs little introduction here. One of the best Neapolitan tailors that travels to the USA. All their stuff features the Neapolitan "drape cut," full canvas construction, and tons of handwork (including the buttonholes). As far as grey herringbone tweed sportcoats go, this is as "Holy Grail" as it get. It has soft shoulders ("spalla camicia"), a 3-roll-2 stance, and patch pockets for a casual look. Made from 18 oz Harris Tweed woven by hand by Butt of Lewis Textiles in Scotland. This particular cloth is #114, which can be viewed HERE. This stuff is tough as nails and looks great. I wore this jacket a few times. It is in immaculate condition, with no signs of wear anywhere. Selling because it's too warm for my climate. If I lived in a colder area, I would keep it. Really conflicted on whether I should sell or not, but I think it's the right decision. I don't like having stuff in my closet I don't wear due to the weather. I originally paid 1200 euros CMT (cut-make-trim) plus 8% US sales tax for this jacket. On top of that, I paid 113 sterling to Butt of Lewis textiles for the 6 meters of single-width tweed needed to make this jacket. If we're using today's exchange rates, it would cost you about $1645 to make this jacket. See work below (In actuality, I paid much more than this due to the less favorable USD to Euro exchange rates in 2014 when I commissioned the jacket. Probably over $2000)
I have excellent feedback here I will ship to the rest of the world at cost. Please add $15 for shipping to the rest of the world (countries that are not the US or Canada). As is implied with all SF classified listings, the sale is final. Sold as is. First one to pay gets the item. I will only "hold" an item for a person who submits payment via Paypal "eCheck" Once the check clears via Paypal, I will ship the item.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is a listing for an incredible, new-with-tags Canali sportcoat. It features full canvas construction. Made in Italy to the highest standards. It is tagged a 42R US / 52R EU. (See measurements below) The quality of the 100% LINEN fabric on this sportcoat is superb. Canali sources fabrics from some of the best mills in the world for its sportcoats. This sportcoat is no exception. It would make an excellent addition to any closet. The color can be described as navy blue, light blue and possibly black threads in the a check pattern. Please note that the fabric has a "slubby" texture to it. This is an intentional sartorial detail that the manufacturer put into the fabric. Many high-end sportcoat connesieurs appreciate this detail. Returns will not be accepted. The pattern can be described as "Prince of Wales" check or "Glen plaid." The MSRP on this sportcoat is about $1500 ($1495 on the tag) before tax. So consider this a deal on an amazing coat in a rare size!

I am offering this like-new condition jacket at price made to move this jacket. Hopefully get it to someone who can make more use of it in their colder climate. My loss is your gain! $1150 shipped CONUS Equivalent to 30% off what you'd pay if you commissioned your own jacket at today's exchange rates.
