Just in time for the summer, Indochino has introduced a number of new linen suits. Check the press review below for more info and head to their website to check out the new arrivals! My personal favourite is the one below, the texture of the fabric looks great and a bit different from the usual light linen suits you see every day. I also really like the knit tie on the model, I don't think it's available on Indochino yet, but I hope that will change! The only thing that I wonder about is the jacket length. I am sure it is purposely short, but I am not sure I like them like that. But as you input your own measures, it won't be a problem. What do you think, anything you'd order?
OUR GENTLEMAN IN HAVANA
(Press release)
Whether strolling the streets of Vieja or Pennsylvania Avenue, a linen suit is key to a gentleman's sartorial arsenal when attempting to beat the heat. This month Indochino launches The Linen Collection, a selection of limited-edition linen suiting inspired by both the casual ease of the Buena Vista Social Club and the sharp '60s work wear of JFK's White House staff. If the Cuban Missile Crisis had a style moment, this was it. Made of crisp and cool linen that is soft yet durable, the collection includes four custom-made suits. The elegant silk/linen blends and weighty, tight weave linens help mitigate wrinkles and ensure these suits won't look as though they've been through the wringer at the end of a long day at the office. Classic natural linen and modern tones of charcoal and taupe are handcrafted into slim cut suits with a retro edge. Key details include slim notch lapels and classic flap pockets.
Available April 22nd at www.indochino.com
