Also put all Testoni's on sale from $195 - $225. Lots of really small sizes from US 5.5 - US 9.

Given the season, more than sweaters, I'd love to see light colored (light grey?) Isaia suits. Ideally in 40R

And Isaia or Vass (u-last) shoes!

Thanks. I would love to try Benjamin too, the slimness looks super, but looking for lighter shades with interesting fabrics -- maybe a light stripe or something. There's a Dunhill this season in the stores that's mindblowing, but they want 3 grand for it. Saw something in Isaia on eBay but it was gone in less than a day!

Any ideas for lighter shades?

Just received my Benjamin Granoro today. For the money you can't really do any better and this new model corrects the high button stance issue with the previous generation.

Glad to hear it. I actually liked the higher button stance personally, but the lower stance is good too... more classic I guess. I recognize the higher button stance doesn't work for everyone...

Sorry - not any time soon - we couldn't believe how fast that size sold out in navy especially... we do have the charcoal and medium gray, which if anything thought would be more popular...

Just picked up a pair of Incotex trousers recently...great product, definitely very happy with them. Now I have my eye on one of the new Benjamin suits. I think the lower button stance looks a lot nicer.

Great... enjoy!

FYI Incotex with US sizing is the full cut Incotex, same as you would find at NM, Barneys, Saks, etc. Benjamin trouser separates are in between Incotex US and Incotex EUR. Benjamin Granoro and Lucente model suit pants (same exact models) are more in line with Incotex EUR (or Mabitex fit, for all you Mab fans).

Sounds like the Granoro trousers will fit me pretty well then, because the Incotex EUR I got fit perfectly. I compared the measurements and it looks like the Benjamin might have a slightly bigger leg opening (8.4") vs the Incotex (8.25" on the pair I just got). That's a pretty negligible difference, so if everything else fits similar that would be great.

Also, will there be any matching waistcoats available for the new suits? I like the idea of being able to turn any suit into a 3-piece. Some of the older models had matching waistcoats but I didn't see any for the new Granoro models.

If looking at the charcoal, we do have the waistcoat in the same exact fabric (only select sizes left though).
