Ambrosi Napoli

jack220 · May 9, 2011

Would someone post detailed pictures of what makes a pair of Ambrosi pants divine? All the handmade parts, the special features and trimmings.
Ive looked it up online and the pictures dont really say much about the features that make them special, or better than say a Savile Row or other bespoke tailor-made pants
Maybe a dissection ala jefferyd. or maybe just close-ups. heh.

Not that I was about to order Ambrosi pants, but this gives me PAUSE big time.
For decades, I have been having the rise lowered on dress pants so that they fit.
The two pair of bespoke that I got some years back from a no-name tailor were
ordered mainly for the low rise. So, in addition to going to great expense, and enduring
indifferent service re: schedules and shipping , etc. there is a high probability that
I'll get a pair that will "surprise" me. This doesn't inspire confidence our esteemed artisan.

Are you being an instigator? Why would anyone attack foo? For getting 5 pairs of Ambrosi trousers in the same fabric or for wearing a sweater of his alma-mater?

I can take the personal attacks and insults, but putting me into a Harvard sweater would truly make a piece of me die on the inside.

I can't tell if this is a real pic or not.

I wouldn't wear it with earth tones though. A navy blazer or cardigan is really the optimal match.

What does Harvard have to do with anything? MF's sweatshirt says 'GROWN', right?
