Watching Citeh and I noticed Roberto Mancini wearing a navy suit with what appears to be a semi-peak lapel. Does anyone here have a semi-peak on any of their suits or sportcoats? I'm not crazy about the look.

Mancini's was more of a Mad Men-esque rounded peak. Seems Europe is catching on with that look, lots of footballers and managers are in skinny lapelled/skinny tied Mad Men outfits.

When you first posted this I thought you were talking about some American-Italian actor in a U.S TV series called Citeh.

It didn't click that you were talking about Man City's manager! I'm still none the wiser though. Now that I know who you're referring too, I'll keep my eyes open

This one? Hm, 'on second sight' not even sure if it's a peak.

I'm not sure I'm comfortable with your new snark-free posts.

^^ I am thankful for them. Especially since others like Bull were taking inspiration from him ...

I think it's kinda nice. Not that millitant like your average peak lapel.
