Anything besides Camoshita? I'm looking at Still by Hand and COS.

I'm also intrigued by this but the model is either too swole or the jacket has weird proportions.

Cos is basically a Lemaire and Schneider minimal-aesthetic rip off. So maybe a good low cost option if you can find something in decent fabrics.

The Italian recs like Massimo Alba I think are not as polished as Schneider, but I’m sure you could make it work.

Thanks I'll look at Massimo Alba, and yea I'm looking for something more modern. I feel like the Camoshita lapel clashes with Schneider shirts.

That would appeal to people who have buff top section, who like emphasis on tight /broad shoulder and short length. I personally don't like it. Without a long sleeve under top the jacket would just look ill fitting.

BTW what is a rec?
