That pretty much describes me. Wonder if I should go with the black, or wait for a brown.

I find that all-black outerwear like that looks good with black pants and black boots, but less great if you plan to wear it with something like blue jeans or tan chinos. Since there isn't any silver hardware to break up the expanse of black material, I think it helps to lean into the monochrome look.

If you look at their site, they also style it this way -- black shirt, black shoes, grey pants, etc.

Interested in seeing more pics of the reversible vest. Have they made that before or is that a new product?
Here are some pics I pulled from their site. Not all color ways but should give you an idea.

Yea definitely agree. I feel overall Stoffa leather, especially the Asymmetric jacket, looks paired best with stoffa trousers and tops. Even going with their Brown leather I still would probably avoid blue jeans because those tonal outfits are just so appealing.

It really looks more substantial in leather than suede. I’d definitely go dark brown too.

Wow, a lot of the accessories and piqué t-shirts sold out super fast this time. I'm glad they're finding success (but a little salty I didn't place an order sooner ha)

Things I like most this time around:

-Ivory and taupe crewneck
-Grey raglan coat
-Anthracite suede field jacket

I have a dark brown raglan coat and it's one of my favorite winter jackets, but I don't really need another one in grey. If I didn;t, I would definitely pick it up. This kind of coat goes with everything. The vests are interesting, but not really for me.

How warm are the raglan coats?

Sorry, I wasn't clear. My raglan coat isn't from Stoffa - though it's almost identical in appearance. I just meant that I found the style of coat to be really useful. I wear mine with suits, sport coats and trousers, jeans and t-shirts... everything. I wear it more often than my more formal winter coats that are more geared towards suits alone.

Hi everyone, I am new to the forum but have been following Stoffa and their campaigns for quite a while. Their philosophy on sustainability, mastery of color and beautiful silhouettes have really caught my attention and I have been contemplating pulling the trigger on certain products for quite some time (as the prices are not cheap).

I have been particularly interested in their knitwear, especially from their Summer collection earlier this year. As I am based in Singapore (an extremely tropical and humid country), I considered picking up their cotton-linen knit polo and shirt-sweater, but ultimately decided against it, a choice I now regret.

Out of sheer curiosity, is it possible for anyone to share their experience washing and wearing either of these 2 models (photographs would be extremely helpful) as it would allow me to come to a make a better informed decision if they release something similar next year.

Cheers! I appreciate it a lot!

-Their plonge leather is NOT corrected grain as the name might imply. It is simply a very small batch of flawless hides without any scarring/mosquito bites.
-The leather dying process took about 60+ days.
-A dark navy blue plonge leather option is available on request.
-Peach cotton almost feels like suede.
-Asymmetric jacket feels very substantial.
-Belted raglan coat has a good weight to it. Not too heavy not too light.
-Most outerwear has snap buttons on the cuffs and inside pockets.
-All front zippers are Super Lampo with custom hardware made right next door by a local hardware manufacturer (Southern Italy)

Is that a navy plonge flight? Or black? Difficult to tell from the images.
