We found ourselves in Piedmont, and (politely) raided Reda - a family-run mill, turning out gold standard suiting fabrics for 160 years.
This linen-wool blend was our pick - lightweight and breathable, with just enough body for a sharp drape. It's a summer-weight weave that has a rare balance of clean lines and laid-back charm.
Two colour-ways: this dark navy Bella Notte, and lighter Azzurro. Both woven from multi-tone yarns for a rich, lightly flecked texture.
We've cut a jacket, and our new Smarts 2.0. Both are rippling with the tailoring details you'd expect. Available separately, but perfect as a pair.
Yours in a frankly wild choice of 50 jacket fits and over 400 trouser sizes. Independently fine-tuneable - mix and match any size jacket with any trouser.
It's some of the best fabric we've laid our hands on. And it's a limited edition - it will blow the doors off. Don't hover.

You need to stay cool this summer - it's a matter of flax. Light, airy and improbably comfortable - it's time to graduate to our Linen Shirt. Collar yours from six shades - including these butcher's stripes.
