The Official Kiton Napoli Appreciation Thread

[SpooPoker]

I cant believe this hasn't existed yet - or if it has, its too dormant to be relevant. So Im starting this now.

I have 15 years worth of images of Kiton that we've consigned, which Ill get back to and post as time allows, but Ill start with our newest piece -

Look at that cloth! Seriously, Kiton has some of the finest examples of cloth. Please post your examples!

Here is my Kiton suit that is a blend of 88% cotton and 12% cashmere. The material is finely woven and very soft to the touch, and the suit is of course well made with lots of handwork and attention to detail. It's my off-work summer suit.

ps- It seems as if shoe brands tend to get 'appreciation' threads moreso than clothing brands.

Thanks for starting this. Can we get a list of the mills that Kiton uses?

- Barbera
- Moxon

Anybody else?

a couple of the Kiton jackets I've owned over the years...

Is Moxon a mill or a distributor? And does it still exist?

These guys seem to have end runs for sale of what seems to be Kiton fabric, next bespoke adventure I am going to try them out and see what gives.

This reminds me that I have two suit lengths of Kiton cloth that I will likely not use. (That is, cloth marked as “x made for Kiton”). I should list these in B&S.

Don't own any Kiton but have tried on a SC at the Houston boutique. Jacket was ridiculously nice and soft. Wish I had the funds to purchase but the price is out of my reach.

Would linen/cashmere be for cold or warm weather?

I wear it for warm weather as it’s only partially lined.
