Who is the owner? Anyone we know? Is his first name possibly James? And his last name possibly Kirk?

Klingon bastard, you've killed my son made my joke

I scroll down the page, see in the side bar that there aren't that many posts after the original post about Tiberias. And then I see it's already been done.

PS - You sure were whiny after getting a great deal and the travel/Sandy-related shipping delay...

i have a tendency to get a little testy when someone's blowin smoke up my azz.
downside is i've never developed the knack for apologizing under those conditions.

I'm intrigued about this suit...how much customization is possible with shoulder construction, lapel width, etc?

If this hits $1K, we can throw in 5 Zegna ties that were donated by a member. I have to get his permission to see if he is good with having his name exposed.

Cheers,

Fok.

I'm intrigued about this suit...how much customization is possible with shoulder construction, lapel width, etc?

3 lapel widths

narrow 2.75", traditional 3.5", wide 4.5"

customizations for other options can vary greatly:
32 different button types, shell, horn etc,
20 different colors for piping
~100 something lining choices
22 different color choices for contrasting buttonholes
22 color choices if you want contrasting pick stitch

for the undercollar you can have either felt or suede:
20 colors of felt
14 colors of suede

.

 

[TiberiasUSA]

Lots of handwork in the suit, all buttonholes, the construction of the full canvas, the lining all attached by hand, all the pick stitching, the chest pocket and more.

We have a lot of Loro Piana fabrics

Summer Tasmanian: Super 150's wool and silk 600 blend <- for those that get hot or in tropical locations or even travel alot. It's extremely lightweight, breathes easily and resistant to wrinkling

Four seasons 130's: Beautiful fabric for your everyday wear

Super 170's: Super soft, it's like Loro Piana has golden fleece or bought a stable of unicorns

Also have fabrics from Ariston which are especially great for those people who have too many staples and need to breathe life into their wardrobe.

Then fabrics from a host of other highly respectable mills:
VBC, Reda, and more

We'll be getting some zegna fabrics as well in 2013

this is the time to get that ultimate luxury suit, with the LP 170's.

Plus a someone is throwing in 5 zegna ties!!!!!!!!!

You know that feeling you get, when swoops in and steals in the last second that ebay auction you spent 7 days following. or You wait all night in a line on black friday and the person in front of you gets that last big screen TV. or you have had an item in your cart for days, and finally about to pull the trigger, but it sold out.

That rage, table pounding, yelling, cursing then frantically searching, calling customer service, trying to find one more somewhere out there. And then utter despair and sadness that leaves you with a void forever.

Don't let this happen to you.
