Why choose this Vitale Barberis Canonico navy suit
-
Italian wool from a historic mill. Vitale Barberis Canonico has woven wool in the Biella region of Italy for centuries and is one of the best-known suiting mills in the world.
-
Super 130s, 280 gm. The fine fibres give a soft, smooth hand and a clean drape, and the 280 gm weight has enough body to hold a sharp line all day.
-
Half-canvassed jacket. A layer of canvas runs through the chest and lapels, so the jacket moulds to you over time and the lapel rolls naturally.
-
Bemberg lining. Bemberg cupro breathes better than polyester, so the jacket feels cooler and slides on and off easily.
-
Made to your size. Choose a standard jacket size and length, give us your body measurements, or send the measurements of a suit that already fits you well.

When to wear a navy suit
Navy is the most versatile suit colour. Wear it to the office with a white or light blue shirt, to an interview, to a wedding as a groom, groomsman or guest, or to an evening event with a dark tie. Brown or black leather shoes both work.

Frequently asked questions
What does Super 130s mean?

Is a 280 gm wool suit good for all year?
280 gm is a mid-weight cloth. Most people wear it comfortably through spring, autumn and winter. It is a little warm for very hot summer days.
Who makes the fabric?
Vitale Barberis Canonico, an Italian wool mill in the Biella region.
Can I buy the jacket or trousers on their own?
Yes. The jacket is $529, the trousers $214 and the vest $214. Order them in the suit builder with this fabric selected.
Is this suit made to measure?
Yes. Every suit is cut and sewn to order for one person in our atelier, from a standard size you choose or from your own measurements.
How long does it take to make and deliver?
Your suit is made in 10 to 12 working days, or 3 to 5 working days with urgent stitching on request. Shipping is free worldwide and tracked: delivery after dispatch takes 8 to 10 working days to the USA, UK, Canada and Europe, 7 to 8 to the Middle East and 10 to 12 to the rest of the world.
How do I care for a wool suit?
Dry clean only, and not too often. Hang the suit on a shaped hanger, brush it after wearing and let it rest a day between wears so the wool can recover.
