What cashmere long coat do you have?

[nighttrain7404]

I have a Breschi Italian pure cashmere coat...280 bucks discounted from the original 1200.

A couple of buddies of mine have some hickey freeman pure cashmere coats that were 1000 bucks...

Which ones do you guys own/think are premiere? Brioni? I've seen Brioni at 1800

What do you mean by long coat?

I have Belvest and Brioni overcoats that I use fairly infrequently unless I'm frequenting the Midwest or East Coast, but why do you care how expensive other people's overcoats are?

It's not the price that I care for. I'm just wondering about the build/quality...

People have mentioned certain tailors/manufacturers and I'm really just getting a gauge of the quality of the items I do have. They seemed quite good to me, then my eyes have been opened to more out there.

Got feedback for leather items, dress shoes, ties, and now was just asking about cashmere overcoats.

I just mentioned the price as additional info..not that it was what I was looking to find out...

I have a fitted 3/4 length black (with velvet collar) 100% cashmere coat by Gucci , the cashmere itself is insanely good scottish cashmere and it feels very very durable. I found it at the Gucci outlet in Florence, Italy, for a mere 350 euro which was quite a deal..

The buttons are real horn, the buttonholes on the sleeves are functional, and it's completely handstitched (not machine-stitched, the stitches have that slightly uneven ,but well done, appearance to them)

That sounds really nice. I wonder if they still make it
