Keeping it going with the springtime colors.. my latest commission from a local clothier..went with an emerald green in a double-breasted look.. I am mostly happy with it.. I like the drape of the suit.. I opted for a structured shoulder (I was going for roping, but their factory in their supply chain did not have the ability to duplicate this look) and a 4 by 1 configuration..The lapels clock in at 5 inches and it's paired with high-waisted pants including the side tab adjusters.. fully canvassed and lined in both the jacket and the pants to aid drape ability...If there were something I would like to improve on in future commissions with this company, it would be the work around the armholes..I think they are a smidge low and it could be cleaned up a bit around it.. overall, I would give this first commission a 7.5/10..the pants are superb and that was a worry that was alleviated..Paired with this orange beauty from Canali.. have had this tie for a while but struggled with what I felt comfortable pairing it with.. most of my suiting is set up for business conservative.. I felt it would work here with spring officially in full bloom and it being Easter.. the shirt is an MTO from proper cloth and the shoes are from Armin Oehler... a whole cut from full-grain calfskin leather on a good year welt. SUIT: r douglas custom clotheirs (mto)..SHIRT: proper cloth (mto)..TIE: canali..SHOES: armin oehler..POCKET SQUARE: nordstrom

Morning and afternoon ladies and gents! This is a look that goes for the four pattern bingo! This term usually refers to incorporating four patterns into one look. For me, there is an art to it. Some people like to clash as many loud and colorful patterns together in one look for different reasons, which may work for that Individual. Collectively, however, it leads to a look that comes across as garish and contrived. I find the style that works best when blending patterns is to vary the scale as much as possible. In some cases one or two (at most) loud patterns with the others being muted. Here I have on one of my most subtle patterned suits from Luciano Barbera made by Attolini (I plan a future post to talk about this label) with very subtle stripes. From afar, it comes across as a solid suit until you get a little closer. The stripes on this dress shirt from Finamore Napoli (a great brand by the way with quality handmade shirts off the rack) slightly vary in scale from the subtle stripes on the suit. The larger patterns on this tie from Brooks Brothers are my loud piece in terms of the pattern and the color. The pocket square finishes it off with its subtle green, red, and orange patterns to compliment the tie. The medium brown in this good year welted shoes from Ezra Paul finish it off to anchor the whole look. I have included extra pictures in the comments.

Celebrating my forty-something birthday where my wife and I were heading out to dinner, dressed up. I've had this suit for 3 years or so, but just got it back from the tailors. I have not worn it much because it's a little trendy for me. Shorter jacket (measures at 31 inches, my comfort level starts at 32.5 inches), shorter sleeves, slimmer and all.. It is still a wonderfully made suit by Attolini that comes with all the bells and whistles a suit of this caliber comes with. I feel that suit is more suitable for a night out to a classic/classy event, rather than the office. Being that our dinner reservations were at night, I chose to go the 'Gotham Dark' route, with the black captoe shoes from Alfred Sargent and dark navy tie from Ascot Chang. Turned heads for sure and the look wore on me as I moved around. Tailor did an awesome job given some of the limitations on me...SUIT: cesare attolini...SHIRT: barba napoli..TIE: ascot chang..SHOES: alfred sargent..POCKET SQUARE: nordstrom..WATCH: breitling colt automatic...

A simple classic office look for the win-Worn for a meeting done sometime last week.. I aimed to keep it really simple with the classic pinstripe suit, thin pinstripe shirt, grenadine tie and whole cuts for the meet. This suit in particular, made by Caruso, has its own back story.. this 3 roll 2 beauty was originally made for an NBA player.. he never picked the suit up, so it was sold to a third party who reached out to me, being that he was local and could not figure out anyone who could fit the dimensions of the suit. The player in question was 6″11 and I am 6″9 (with my hair, lol)..so the longer jacket at the time (measuring all of 34 inches from below the collar) and sleeves (30 inches) sort of worked. I had it tailored and wore it for five years with the jacket being longer than I liked. I took it to my tailor late last year and finally took the plunge to have it shortened from 34 inches down to 32.75 inches...We both decided that anymore than that we would throw the balance off from the pockets and the front/back silhouette. When I took the suit to my tailor 6 years ago, we also decided to recut the shoulder pads.. while they were soft, at the time, they did not conform to the slope of my shoulders adequately. My tailor did the best he could and I am 95% satisfied with the outcome. This suit is from Caruso’s mainline, which is on par with other mainline products from the likes of Zegna and Canali which I found interesting being this was supposed to be a made to measure product for the athlete. Mostly machine work throughout the suit, which is fine to me. I have their higher line from Parma and there is a big difference in quality between both. Overall I am happy with the suit. Classic proportions that veer slim but not unnecessarily so. The back is pretty clean and the suit drapes well showing off clean lines, overall. Also included in this fit is my favorite grenadine from Jay Kos and the maiden voyage of these whole cuts from Spier and Mackay. Good Year Welted with full grain leather. Can’t beat the price and I love the shape of the lasts... Follow me on IG: https://www.instagram.com/centralcalisosa/

Springtime grays and browns- This was worn on Sunday for service and brunch afterward.  This suit was made by Brioni and it'd history with me is storied in my eyes.. I purchased this suit 7 years ago at a discount chain at a very steep discount (85% off) and I was enamored by the lowered stance but a hard three-button suit. My teenage and early twentyhood was spent in the '90s that was the era of the three-button suit (outside of the mod movement in the '60s), so my memories of stylish three-button suits were limited to Pierce Brosnan's interpretation of James Bond. When I purchased this suit, it was really big. Like three to five inches bigger everywhere. When I received the suit, despite the larger-than-life silhouette, I saw the promise in the sartorial bones of the suit. I loved the shoulder line and the lower button stance and the slightly open quarters. My tailor had to completely recut the suit. He took in the jacket by 4 inches, removing and reattaching the pockets in the process. He also had to take off the sleeves, slim them down considerably, and then rotate the sleeves because significantly slimming them down had thrown the pitch of the sleeves off a lot. He also shortened the jacket slightly because it was slightly longer. He had to take the waistband off the pants, completely recut the pants (slimming them down by three inches all the way around) to my bow legs, and then reset the pleats.. I should have taken a before picture. All this was done for a whopping $300 back then which is amazing because he would charge 5 times that now. I love the suit because there is loads of handwork everywhere and I like that it's different. In the world of 2 button suits or 3 rolls 2 suits, this stands out. It's unapologetic in its truth that it's a hard 3 button suit but find its beauty in its difference and wonderful cut. The tie is Canali and the shoes are from Santoni's fatto o manno line which is their higher-end line known for its Goodyear welt and closed channel sole. I don't get to wear it often because it's 5 years now and I love it...SUIT: brioni.. SHIRT: hugo boss.. TIE: canali..SHOES: santoni...POCKET SQUARE: monsieur le fox..
