I'm really intrigued by their new Blue Solaro suit and kinda wished Spier would make this.

Can anyone comment on the fit of their suit jacket? Based on a lot of the photos of their suit jackets, the top (main) button on all of their suit jackets seems higher than usual for Neapolitan cuts.

Their jackets are extremely short and proportions are off

Based on the measurements they list, they do not seem overly short. But I do see the proportions being off, especially the placement of the buttons. I tried checking their Instagram tagged photos but all of the photos are of the same 2 models they feature on their site and it does look like the buttons are too high.

I can confirm this, all items are well made, but the jacket proportions deviate quite a bit from your usual RTW fits

Has anyone been able to figure out who makes their stuff??
I got curious about this, it looks like their suits are made by Flannel Bay near Naples, the "questo capo confezionato" tag is shown in most of their advertising photos, and is also on the Boggi suits that Flannel Bay makes.

I just got my first item from them (Brick red blazer), it has shorter sleeves than almost any other RTW I've tried, the jacket length is also slightly short. Fortunately neither of those are a problem for me. I really like the fabric and overall cut.
