You can make a suit look sharp on a mannequin. Keeping it comfortable after eight hours of sitting, walking, driving, and rushing between meetingsโ€”thatโ€™s the harder part.

Thatโ€™s really what the MERINO STRETCH series is for. It uses superfine Merino wool, so the cloth still has that soft hand and proper tailored look, but thereโ€™s a little stretch worked into it. You wonโ€™t see it, and honestly, you shouldnโ€™t. You just notice the jacket moves more easily when you reach forward, and the trousers donโ€™t pull so much when you sit down.

At around 300g, it has enough weight to hang cleanly. The jacket keeps its line, the trousers donโ€™t look flimsy, and the fabric settles back into shape better after a long day.

We usually suggest this one to customers who actually wear their suits a lotโ€”office people, frequent travellers, grooms whoโ€™ll be on their feet all day. It still looks like a proper wool suit. It just doesnโ€™t make you work quite so hard to wear it.
