Virgil No. 4 Suit
Char Navy Glen Plaid Tropical Wool
Regular priceSale price
$3,295
The glen plaid on this tropical wool is so deep and dark that you almost have to be looking for it to clock the pattern. It reads solid at first glance, making it an especially easy suit to wear and pair through spring and summer. A real second-look type of piece, in more ways than one. This suit is our No. 4 make, almost fully handmade, which means more time in our Neapolitan tailors' hands... in fact, the jacket alone requires a full ten hours’ worth of tailoring before it leaves the workshop. The shoulder, lining, darts, buttonholes, buttons, and several other elements are sewn by hand, and you can feel it when you put it on. It's almost like the seams move with you. It's cut in our Virgil model, which has a natural shoulder, a 3-roll-2 lapel, and a shorter body with no front darts at all. Think old-school 'sack suit,' but sexier. The trousers, too, are designed to complement the jacket, with a trim-but-not-tight leg that looks great with a cuff. They've also got a dak waistband with adjuster tabs that give the whole suit a more trussed-up look. The Virgil silhouette has a slightly more American feel than the Kincaid or the Landry, but just like all of our tailored clothing, it's designed to take you from Mississippi to Milan — and back again — without looking or feeling out of place.

This suit comes unfinished, which means it needs to be tailored before you wear it! The jacket sleeves are unhemmed, without cut buttonholes, so your local tailor can hem them to your perfect length and attach the buttons. (We include eight — four for each sleeve — in the pocket.) The trouser legs are also unfinished and ready to be shortened to your exact inseam with either a cuff or a plain hem. If you’re near one of our stores, our in-house tailors can also take care of this.
