The design features real handmade working surgeon’s 4-button sleeve cuffs, extraordinary handcut besom flap, welt and interior besom pockets throughout the garment each fully self-lined with the very expensive pure Alashan cashmere cloth for incredible comfort, security and durability; impeccably cut and stitched matching plaids throughout and handcut center back vent, generous 2,5 centimeter seam allowances on major fitting seams that allow the jacket to be altered and let out for long-term wear and value, a remarkable composition of hand-sewn real horn button designs made exclusively for us by the world’s greatest living buttonmakers--Claudio and Cinzia Fontana in Parma, Italy--and no less than 12 of our signature real hand-stitched buttonholes in pure silk Bozzolo Reale Milano Seta threads which required at least 12-14 minutes to create each one (over 2 hours of painstaking expert work just to make the buttonholes alone for a single jacket). The piece also features our world leading pure silk label created exclusively for us by Mion SpA in Torreglia which is the first label in the luxury industry to completely eliminate plastic polyester yarns in it--beautifully attached entirely by hand with pure silk threads.
