I did some shopping over the weekend to see what was on sale... I ran into some Isaia suits that I caught my eye... I also tried on some Zegna Milano cuts... Both the Isaia and Zegna suits fit me like a glove with the exception of the sleeve length... They both felt very nice and had the nice soft shoulders..
I know that most here prefer Isaia over Zegna and from some recent posts, Zegna has been taking a pounding but I was kind of impressed with the Zegna Milano cut...
The Isaia stuff had a much nicer lapel roll on the 3 buttons as a 3 roll 2... I thought the Zegna looked better with 2 buttons as opposed to their 3 button model... The Zegna 3 roll 2 wasn't as nice...
I've learned from previous threads that it's always better to go for subdued patterns on a suit... I've also learned from previous threads that what looks like a pretty swatch can result in a gaudy suit that only a gangster would wear...
Most of the Isaia stuff that I've run into fabric wise seems a little over the top to me... The Zegna fabrics I encountered seem more subdued and understated...
I thought the Isaia suits looked nice and I am sure the construction is better as stated from the previous posts here but the Zegna fabrics seem to be superior in quality to me...
Am I right??
What are your thoughts on comparing Isaia and Zegna's Milano overall??
