That is terrible news for us the customer. Never understood who that Jort dude was (apart from the fact he was a controversial Dutch journalist), he did look quite cringeworthy in some ads.
However, I understand they stop the collection from the Suitsupply stand point : who was spending 1000$ +cad for the jort line ? I always saw them on the outlet (where I grabbed them). Happy to have done so now that I learned this. Found them the best fitting for the whole susu collection, less taper than regular collection on the pants, and obviously the full canvas was a plus. At 320$ and 500$ for a 3 piece on outlets, premium materials, they were a no brainer (yes some pieces were a bit show off and hard to pull off for the regular customer).
A big shame if they do stop that line. My wardrobe is loaded anyways :D
That does leave a void for the premium collection at Suitsupply, I still believe they ought to have pieces for when a customer asks for the best of the best. I guess they can always redirect to their full canvass pieces.

I wonder if this means they will move away from having a premium line or if they will just restructure the naming/categorization.

It wasn't too long ago they took the La Spalla model and folded it into the Lazio collection. I found it confusing because I would think they would want to easily differentiate between the half-canvass, lower quality fabrics of regular Lazio and the premium fabrics/full canvas of La Spalla, but obviously the Big Wigs disagree. I also thought La Spalla was a great name but what do I know!

Seems this may be more of the same - a way of integrating their top-of-the-line options into their pre-existing framework. Time will tell.

Some of the new SS21 can be found through their picture files now.
This suit in particular seems interesting. Natural shoulder, wider lapels (but not "Havana Wide Lapel"-wide), 3 roll 2 buttoning, jetted pockets. Seems like a new fit if i'm not mistaken.

Seen that around. Not sure about how I’m feeling about the jetted pockets but I’m leaning towards “no”

Can you share the picture files with us?

Sorry if this has been done to death, but I wondered if someone could explain the fit difference between suitsupply's various trousers..Soho, Brescia etc. etc? Are they all similar? I have e-mailed them directly, but still waiting. If it helps I'm a thin guy, runner, 5'8 (174 cm), under 126 lbs (58 Kg), but meatyish thighs.

Was looking at...https://suitsupply.com/en-gb/men/trousers/light-grey-soho-trousers/B809.html (but not 100% sure on cuffs) and was considering "Brescia" custom make....worth it?

Cheers

Muscular legs are the undoing of SuitSupply trouser fit success. Most of the fits are quite similar in dimensions and favor a trimmer fit top to bottom. I have musuclar legs and the only fit I've found that works for me in a normal size (eg I don't have to size up 1 or 2 whole waist sizes) would be the Braddon. Only issue with them is that they only come double pleated so if you want flat fronts you are out of luck!

If anyone has SS Full canvas suit (jort or LaSpella) and Spier and Mackay Full canvas suit? How do you compare them for the fit and fabric?
