About the fabric
- Fabric woven in Italy
- Woven with wool
Introducing the Essential Navy Suit, a timeless symbol of sophistication and elegance. Crafted from premium Italian wool, the deep navy hue is versatile and perfect for any occasion. The jacket has timeless styling, with two buttons, notch lapels, a chest pocket, and double vents for ease of movement. Whether styled with a crisp white shirt and a bold tie or dressed down with a casual button-down, this embodies timeless, elegant style.
Our Essentials are the perfect entry-level make, half-lined with half-canvas construction. Just as good whether you’re 22 or 72.
All of our garments are made-to-measure and ship to our showroom, where we inspect each one by hand before preparing it for shipment. Our jackets, suits, tuxedos, and outerwear all ship on our unique wooden hangers and in a garment sleeve.
Every customers’s first order includes a complimentary remake to ensure the perfect fit.
All of our garments are made-to-measure, so we are unable to accept returns.

Place the tape measure around your upper chest and pull it snug but not tight. Take two or three regular breaths, letting the tape measure expand naturally with each breath. The measured number in inches is your jacket size. We recommend doing this a few times and taking the average number. If you land on an odd number, choose the next even size up.
Let us know what size you currently wear in the waist of chinos or dress trousers. Choose that size. If they fit really tight in the waist and seat, choose one size up.
Short: Recommended for Gentlemen under 5'9. This size will also have shorter sleeves, to match the shorter jacket length. The jacket will end around the middle to the bottom of your seat.
Regular: Recommended for Gentlemen 5'9 to 6'0. The jacket will end around the middle to the bottom of your seat.
Long: Recommended for Gentlemen over 6'0, or those with long torsos and arms. The jacket will end around the middle to the bottom of your seat.
Thin: I find most pants too wide or baggy in the leg.
Average: Most pants fit my legs, and are not too tight in the thigh.
Muscular: I struggle to find pants that fit my thighs.
None: The trouser leg will sit right at the top of your shoe, every so slightly sitting on it.
Slight: The trouser leg will have a very small break across the top of the shoe, with one dimple on the pants.
Full: The trouser leg will have one large, or two smaller breaks on the top of the shoe.
Fit: I always wear slim-fit shirts, and find that most jackets off the rack have too much room in the waist.
Medium: I typically wear an athletic-fit shirt, and want a well-cut jacket, with just enough room.
Significant: I typically wear a classic-fit shirt, and struggle to find shirts and jackets that fit at the waist.
Cuff: The trousers will have a standard one-and-a-half-inch cuff.
Plain: The trousers will have a plain bottom and no cuff.
Fit: Jackets always fit my chest well off the track.
Medium: Jackets are sometimes tight in the chest and upper back.
Significant: Jackets never fit my chest well, and always feel tight and constricting.
Erect: When standing comfortably, my shoulders are either set back, or shoulders sit behind my hips. (When looking at my side profile)
Balanced: When standing comfortably, my shoulders are aligned with my hips.
Rounded: When standing comfortably, my shoulders are in front of my hips, and my back and shoulders are rounded forward.
None: My shoulders are horizontal, and jackets typically feel comfortable in the armpit.
Slight: My shoulders slope slightly, and the armpit of jackets is sometimes tight.
Significant: My shoulders lack a horizontal plane, and slope downward significantly.
Classic: Our classic-cut jacket will have an extra inch in the waist and a half-inch in the chest. It is perfect for those who want a roomier garment.
Tailored: Our natural house style. Plenty of room in the shoulders and chest, with a trim waist.
Whether in-person or online, a perfect fit is right around the corner.
