Kiton Petrol Fine-Wool Neapolitan Herringbone Suit

Discover the Kiton Petrol Fine-Wool Neapolitan Herringbone Suit. Petrol is a colour that sits between navy and teal without fully committing to either, a deep blue-green with an inherent depth that changes in different light. The herringbone is woven in the solaro tradition, the cloth constructed with two tones in the yarn so that the surface shifts as the viewing angle changes, the petrol reading differently indoors than in daylight, the herringbone structure catching that movement and distributing it across the weave. It is a cloth that rewards attention, the colour never quite settling into a single reading.

Kiton has made suits by hand in Naples since 1956, and this piece carries the full vocabulary of that tradition: the spalla camicia shoulder, soft and unstructured, sitting against the body rather than away from it; handmade buttonholes throughout; the 2.5-button closure with its half-button set just below the collar break; jetted pockets at the hips, clean and without flap; and half lining that lets the cloth move freely. The trousers are cut flat-front with a turn-up. This is a suit for the dandy in the precise sense: a man who understands that an unusual colour in a cloth of this quality is not an affectation but a considered position.

Kiton was founded by Ciro Paone in 1968 in Arzano, near Naples. Ciro Paone was born in Naples in 1933; he came from a family of fabric dealers who had been operative for five generations – which have now become seven generations. For more than 3 decades, Ciro’s passion gave rise to the Kiton project. With the founding of Kiton, Ciro turned his greatest passion into a vocation, elevating tailoring from a modest artisan craft to an artistic expression: the love for beauty, the love for beautiful garments. His entire existence focuses on two fundamentals: passion and quality.
