These are gorgeous! Do you maybe have the fabric code, SKU, or name Abraham Brown uses for the "caramel"? They have tobacco and camel (and dark brown, mid brown, and country brown), but not caramel. Thanks so much!

Sure, here you are. The caramel jacket was RTW.

Interesting to see how many people have seemingly opted for the pants only option with the bottle green Fresco. I would have assumed the jackets would be a hotter ticket item, relatively speaking.

Also, has anybody posted photos of the Cerruti wool/silk jacket? Curious how purplish it resolves.

Here you are. Together with the popular E. Thomas navy in the last three pics. It's not any other navy jacket. Different enough to be a keeper imo.

I Believe S$M Has Sold A Lot Of Green SC (imho) Past 2 Seasons, May Be The Reasoning & Price, That SC Is Suit Pricing, Just Recieved The Trousers And They Are Sweet. The Website In Color (Bright) Doesn't Help Either, I Think People Are Having A Hard Time Wearing (imho) As A Suit, NO PROLBEM HERE! SC To Follow... :fistbump:

Cerruti, [USER=154632]@DonRaphael I Believe This Young Man Has It... :fonz:

Edit; I Love All Things Green!

Cheers. Still annoyed I never picked up that ET one. Hung around for sooooo long, and just never pulled the trigger. Big mistake on my part.
Fair to consider the Cerruti a mix of grape and faded navy? Like you said, certainly not your typical navy, but curious if I'm honing in on the right mix of color.

Probably fair. I think it would make for a killer suit. Had I not purchased the Minnis Emerald Linen, I would have purchased it straightaway. No buyer's remorse with the Emerald, of course, but I am a slut for high twist fabric. I'll keep an eye to see if any of the trews come back in stock.

The Cerrutti is a faded navy, yes. It's almost steel-ish in shade as it features a hint of grey. In that aspect, it's colder in shade than a typical navy.

When I first saw the jacket I immediately thought that it'll look great with a matt smoke grey pair of trousers rather than your typical light grey trousers since it's colder. Still waiting for a pair in the former colour to arrive so I can combine them.

The jacket feels more comfortable than the navy hopsack I have from S&M. It drapes better and casts a nice silhouette. Keep in mind that I've only worn this suit twice since buying the item and am still feeling it out however it is great so far.

One would hope that for the price difference there are discernable differences. Good to know there are. ;)

My gripe with their chinos every single year the fit is different. One year it's too loose from the previous year. The next time it's too tight either in the seat or waist. It's always something.

I hope they nail it down as I like the quality and price can't beat but it's very inconsistent.

Just looking for all year round chinos that are mid rise that fit well.

Size is consistent now from SS20. No changes.
