This is a piece from what those who follow Neapolitan tailoring closely refer to as the golden era of Luigi Borrelli production, a period when the house applied a density of hand work to its garments that the pressures of volume and cost have since made increasingly rare. The measure of that standard is found not in the details visible when the jacket is worn but in those that are not: the darts inside the jacket carry hand-set bartacks at each end, the fine thread drawn and finished by hand at a point that no customer will ever see and that serves no purpose other than confirming that the construction was completed to the same standard throughout, visible or not. It is the detail that separates a garment made entirely with conviction from one that applies hand finishing selectively where it will be noticed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cloth is pure cashmere of a weight and plushness that the fibre's association with lightweight suiting does not immediately suggest, the heavy cashmere carrying a body and a drape that gives the Prince of Wales its full structural expression, the cloth substantial enough to hold the jacket's shoulder line and chest without internal support while retaining the softness against the hand that only cashmere produces. The ground is grey with a glen plaid woven into the base construction, and across this a light mint green windowpane overcheck runs as a fine line, the cool, fresh tone of the green sitting against the grey ground with a quietness that prevents it from reading as a contrast and allows it instead to function as a tonal variation within the cloth's overall grey character, the overcheck present and traceable without asserting itself beyond its means.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeak lapels give the jacket a formal presence suited to the cashmere's weight and the Prince of Wales's authority, the 2.5-button closure allowing the lapel to roll naturally to its break. Jetted pockets sit flush against the front, the openings clean and uninterrupted. The functioning buttonholes at the cuff are worked by hand throughout, the stitching close and precise in the manner of the house at its most attentive. The jacket is fully lined.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLuigi Borrelli in its golden era made jackets that justified the attention given to every detail inside them. In heavy cashmere Prince of Wales with a mint green overcheck and bartacks on the darts, this one justifies it completely.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Luigi Borrelli","offers":[{"title":"50 IT \/ 40 US \/ Large \/ Grey \/ 100% Cashmere","offer_id":59186778145100,"sku":"CONS01972","price":748.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0653\/6187\/1105\/files\/3D39F757-8C11-48D5-A938-2A7E22D75A31.png?v=1791910373","url":"https:\/\/sartorialistamsterdam.com\/products\/luigi-borrelli-grey-light-green-pure-cashmere-prince-of-wales-jacket","provider":"Sartorialista","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
