WOOL

Loro Piana, a historic wool factory in the province of Biella, it is renowned worldwide for the great attention it gives to finding the best and rare raw materials from where it makes its finest and most noble weaves like cashmere, baby cashmere, vicuña and the finest wool of unequal quality. 
Loro Piana recognized the value of Merino sheep' dark wool and decided to restore this fiber. Pecora Nera® is the result of the hard work of a New Zealand breeder determined to restore the dignity and importance of the Black Merino sheep. The original characteristics of the ewe, such as the brightness, the strength and the distinctive colorings of the wool that vary from light brown to dark black, can finally be seen again. The Pecora Nera®fabrics are extremely light, comfortable and resistant. This rare and superlative fiber can be used to produce sophisticated garments in a dynamic range of dark tones, which also have unique insulating properties.

INTERNAL CONSTRUCTION 

It is a Half Canvas jacket, completely made in Italy by renowned tailors which produces men’s suits for the world's most prestigious fashion houses. The canvas is applied from the shoulder by the underside of the jacket to the middle of the chest, for this reason, it is called "Half Canvas". This construction provides a fluidity where it is applied either in the upper part of the chest where one needs comfort and flexibility for everyday movements. The jacket will, therefore, have a structure and at the same time an elegant fluidity. The fabric gives the jacket greater durability compared to a fused construction jacket and makes it comfortable and breathable.

DETAILS

The Neapolitan shoulder (Spalla Camicia in Italian) is constructed without padding, giving you a naturel and delicate look without amplifying a persons features and at the same time gives you a more spontaneous elegance
The chest pocket "Barchetta" (small boat) is cut with the upper corner pronounced recalling the shape of a boat and confers harmonious proportions at the level of the chest.

We created for this suit, a tailored trousers with single pleats, a high waist, a large extended tab fastening belt and the side adjusters.You will find the quality of the details in the Side pockets with AMF stitching, the V-shaped slit in the back waistband, the Welt back pocket and the small change pocket. We have left extra fabric inside at the seams, so as to allow for simple alterations if needed. This allows for the waist, hips and legs be let out. The cuff is left long on purpose so as to allow it to be short, long or with turn-ups so giving that touch of individuality
