Ben,

I recently ordered a pair of classico II trousers and found them to be significantly tighter (in both the seat and legs) than the prior cut - did you change the model significantly?

Barely changed the model. I'm wondering if you definitely go the Classico II model or perhaps there is a remote possibility you received the wrong sized trousers?

Time... need more time. At this point don't hold your breath - I am still more focused on the Sartorial (fully canvassed) line...

Good idea.

Have you ever considered adding a wishlist to your website? It would be nice to be able to send one link to my family/significant other instead of many links.

Also: another new request: Benjamin odd trousers (flanel, etc)

Pretty sure they were Classico II 32s. I'm wondering if mine stretched out significantly over time and it was more of a fabric thing

Ben,

Can you compare and contrast the Lardini line of sports coats to the Benjamin line from a fit, quality, value perspective?

Specifically i'm thinking of either these two:

Actually we used to have one on the site but removed it - I forget why... but yes I do plan to have a wish-list type function for the new site!

Benjamin odd trousers have been on the agenda for a really long time now - once again production issues have plagued me though.

The Lardini jacket you linked to is actually more structured than mos of the other Lardini jackets which are mostly unlined and have almost no shoulder padding. Lardini are mostly half canvassed and in some cases fused as the unlined jackets are mostly unstructured (but totally awesome). They're all made in Italy and use really nice fabrics.

The Benjamin is, of course, fully canvassed and the one you linked to is the Napoli soft shoulder model, and the fabric is amazing - pure cashmere from either Delfino or Zegna - I can't remember and lost track. As far as fit, I don't have the jackets here with me in London so can't say for sure, but they are likely going to fit the same body - just the styles and fabrics are different.

Love, love, love the forum. The info in here is second to none. 2 quick questions...

1) Are there any promotions going on currently on the ehaberdasher.com website? 20% off with registration? 15%? 10%? Free shipping?

2) Is it possible to order from the ehaberdasher.co.uk website and have it shipped to America?

Thanks!

The only promotions are free US shipping (code 'SFFRSHIP') or if outside US 1/2 price shipping (code 'SFHALF').

Yes we ship internationally from either site to pretty much any country in the world.

Forgive me if this has been asked and answered; I tried poking around this thread for an answer but grew tired of searching through 141 pages. I'm in the market for a $500 suit and am trying to decide between a SuitSupply and Benjamin. In a 40S, the only offering on ehaberdasher is a "slimmer classico". I'm wondering how this suit fits overall compared to any of the various SuitSupply fits (of which there is more extensive information). I love the idea of fully-canvassed, but am in the market for a slim-fitting suit, more in line with modern fashion vs. a classically-fitted suit.

In the Benjamin, are there some standard measurements for a 40S Slimmer Classico II? Chest, shoulder, waist, BOC, drop, rise, leg opening, etc. Thanks!

He actually lists the measurements in the description of each suit. I couldn't find a 40S on the US site, but here's the link to one on the UK site: http://www.ehaberdasher.co.uk/servlet/the-1319/Benjamin-Sartorial-Suit-cln--39S-fdsh-40S/Detail

Just read down below the description, and you'll see a section called "Jacket Details/Measurements", and then one for pants.

Probably the same measurements, except for length, as the 40R, of which there are quite a few examples on the site.

thanks for the reply Simpson, I suppose I'm still looking for a general idea of the fit though. Measurements aside, is the classico fitted like a classically-cut suit, or a more modern fitting slim-fit? I am very athletically built and would prefer a suit that was more tailored to my body instead of the more traditional baggy suit look.

They are generally slim fit, but not a fashion slim fit. They definitely are not baggy.

For those not on our email list, we've recently added some awesome Lardini jackets at $295 and up - well below Yoox prices - and they're awesome (more casual) jackets! Also got in Castangia and Battistoni suits and jackets - really nice rare pieces that are hand made and Brioni-esque.

and today we put up some PT01 and PT05 - awesome slimmer fitting trousers and 5 pocket styles!
