Not here…OG customer and still love seeing all their pieces in my closet.Is it just me or has this brand lost its appeal?
Is it just me or has this brand lost its appeal?
Out of curiosity, what are the similar brands that people imply or state are on par with Stoffa but at a lower point of entry? I could name a few, but I’d love to hear other perspectives.
Thanks. I'm familiar with some of those brands, but not all. Given where I live, NYC, spending time in their showroom and getting nerdy about cloth and structure is easier. Thanks for the other suggestions. From my perspective, their cloth tends to be very considered. I would agree that some of the designs have not been as unique as some of their earlier pieces, but I still enjoy the entire experience, from people to product.Interesting question. I suppose depends on what you mean by on par? Fabrics, service, styling?
There's some things in Stoffa's range that I gladly would spend the money on because I can't find it anywhere else. Camp shirt is a good example - everyone is doing one but there's elements to the Stoffa one that I enjoy. Could go the Luxire route but to me, at that price point, not worth the time and effort.
A few that come to mind that may touch on different parts of Stoffa's range, in no order: Saman, Amel, Blugiallose, Barena, CAMO, Doppiaa, salvatore piccolo, collaro.
I've only bought their trousers mtm which are great starting at $375 last year. I'm still willing to pay the markup (starting at $425 for cotton and linen) since that's in or slightly less than Rota. For their quality, Stoffa seem worth the price, as long as you dial in your measurements/fit. But if price goes up to $500, it will be too much for me I suspect. I'm also happy with Rota for wool fabrics as there's a greater selection. For linen, Stoffa is my choice right now. Their's is a nice crisp, mid weight solid linen (Irish?), really sharp.Is it just me or has this brand lost its appeal?
I'd steer clear of them (and any flip flips really) personally. But something like the Postiano sandal by Officine General would work well with the aesthetic, I think.Anyone know what those flip flops are in the latest lookbook? I know they've used them before. Or any sandal recommendations for Stoffa styling in general?
I just picked up some suede espadrilles that feels like a nice option too. But I guess it depends on what you’re wearing, tailored high twist trousers with a cuff won’t be as good with them as a drawstring or linen option.i think they've had the feit wood sandal in a couple of the lookbooks before
along the lines of the OG positano I think the officine creative introspectus would work well
i actually struggle with what kinds of shoes to wear with this kind of casual tailoring in the city (traditional loafers seem too boring, I dont like sandals or open toes options in the city, and the sneakers i own seem a little affected to me with tailoring), curious if anyone has good ideas
