Hey guys anyone tried the iteration of Havana with the single flap pockets (not the one with the ticket pocket and really wide lapels)? I have a couple of Havana's but would prefer one with flap pockets. Anyway if anyone can offer feedback on the fit, sizing and especially lapel width would be greatly appreciated. From what I can tell the sizing and fit are modelled on the old Hudson but then again I might be wrong.
The suit in question is

Keep in mind this is the new red line Havana. Actually unconstructed (no canvas), 3 roll 2 button and 9.5CM lapel width (same as Hudson), slightly pleated shoulder, but I can't confirm if its the same exact model besides construction. For my summer cotton/silk version, the jacket length was slightly shorter than the regular Havana, about 0.7cm.
Don’t think it’s modelled on the Hudson in this case — the shoulder is a regular good old Havana shoulder. I think this is like a Lazio without the lining and no shoulder padding. I think this is also too expensive for what it is — US 699. This should be priced at US 499. It’s just regular Barberis winter wool from what I can tell.
Again and again, I “admire” the stupidity of whoever pushed the decision to rename their fits last year.
Its actually not the regular old Havana shoulder, it has no canvas or shoulder padding, and slightly pleated shoulder. Its part of the red line collection so a bit more attention to detail like genuine buffalo horn buttons, butterfly lined or unlined and unconstructed all making it more expensive. Most middle of the range Susu suits have increased in price to from $499 to $569.
