To be honest, I find the bespoke from their site is really nice, but yours is even worse then rtw I posted, but that's probably a solely stylistic and therefore mostly subjective preference.

Btw. what defines an Adelaide? Except that good ones must be somewhat ugly

haha i prefer all three of the G&G's to those italian ones better balance in the design, as for what is an adelaide well regardless of whther it is with a cap or wing if it have the thraot detailing around the lacing then theres your answer

i can see what you're saying. i also discovered the fact that the throat is narrower. not sure, if it would bother me.
