Lanieri Suit Unboxing #2 & Full Review

[@keith4948]

You should do a Q&A video because I have so many questions. How do you afford to buy all of this stuff? It seems impossible to wear everything you review, so what do you do with all of the clothes? Does your mailman secretly hate you? etc...

[@rimidalv7710]

You should have at least 500k suscribers bud . Outstanding reviews! Outstanding channel !

[@jazzman1626]

I checked out Lanieri’s website and when I got to the trousers/pants section, there’s an option to have wider than usual trouser hem width. I have a Canali suit that is light tan and the best way I can describe it is that it’s a butter colour. Unfortunately the jacket is just a little too wide at the shoulders and it is also Reg length. I thought it fitted but after watching some videos on how a suit should fit, I saw that the coat is just too big. The trousers, however are absolutely superb! They feel amazing. The hem is 8” wide and the whole trouser leg is wider than you usually see in suits. It’s not ridiculously wide, just in case it sounds like that. The fabric wafts against your legs and keeps you cool. Lanieri are the only tailors, apart from Magnoli Clothiers as far as I know, that make pants legs this wide. If you get the opportunity to try a pair like these, guys, give them a go and see how really great they feel.

[@dankazda6130]

I watched this entire thing because the suit is so beautiful and the fit is near perfect.

[@DHuangful]

Looking at your video, I see the same problem from the Black lapel suit, where the lapel would pop out when I move my hand or put my hand in my pockets. I even had the black lapel suit remade, yet the same problem still exist.

[@victor5435]

Very cool.... do they have a Lanieri in the USA? On the website it appears they are only in Italy

[@kongmw]

AoS should be interesting with their remote-camera-phone-fitting program. But their pieces are definitely beautiful and elegant. Looking forward to it.

[@The_Kavalier]

That donnegal in navy will be unparalleled

[@jawaanwatkins6569]

Love the watch. This suit looks much better.

[@maxinef6654]

That gray silk suit looked awesome on you.

[@JOSHMACIASFITNESS]

Have you ever heard or tried Enzo mtm suits ?

[@adrielrowley]

My sympathy from one about the same proportions. Myself inverted triangle, 6'-2", and 165 pounds. Now subscribed as not easy finding reviews in a trimmer build, plus great content and quality. Someday going to replace Opa's navy chalk stripe (story behind that) so in the research phase. So far looking like Oliver Wicks.

[@alexberry205]

That is by far the best suit you’ve ever gotten.

[@KevKevAllen]

I love that the cuff buttons are functional, I can’t stand suits that don’t have working buttons on the cuff.

[@henrybtaylor]

Sounds like Lanieri will be my next suit

[@SF_Curious]

Where did you took the measurements? Did you go to a Europe store for that?

[@Killer-ji2du]

Where did he buy the shirt?

[@genemolineux6864]

Nice vintage omega watch man.

[@jackthomas6952]

Lapel width?

[@jc128744]

Good evening. Would you say that this Lanieri suit is better than an Oliver Wicks suit at the same price point?

[@Frank-bd7ov]

Thoughts?

[@sukhdarshansinghsehmbi8607]

How come your suit not available in stock lol? I guess it was so popular& it sold out in a short space of time but will find an alternative that will impress me as I love all your suits - they are tremendous 10/10 rating

[@charleybrewster907]

Hey Kav, did you remove a section from your brand tracker called 'basics' or 'essentials' or something? There was a website under a category that seems to be gone that had awesome jackets and now I can't find it. Thanks!

[@The_Kavalier]

I didn't but I'll look at the version history of the document maybe someone else did

[@Gusfjr]

Can we please just take a minute to appreciate how damn good looking this guy is?

[@JRO112687]

Does Lanieri offer pic stitching? Or do they automatically include?

[@charliebrewster2809]

Hey Kav, I've been using your brand tracker for shopping but I have an issue. I found a great website selling jackets under a category called 'basics' or something but now that entire category is gone. Do you know what happened and if there is an older version of your brand tracker that I could use to relocate that website? Thanks!

[@The_Kavalier]

I didn't but I'll look at the version history of the document maybe someone else did

[@cobbetlprogrammer1344]

Very Good Vid. Indeed Please do one on 1) a single Breasted Tuxedo with vest and an Double-Breasted Tuxedo.

[@kevinzeng9606]

I can't find suits on the Lanieri site for $499 or $599? Could you please advise? Thanks!

[@The_Kavalier]

It looks like they've focused on higher end fabrics. Oliver Wicks knocks it out of the part in that price point, becomes tough to compete!

[@lapizza7206]

I can't find out if they are full canvas or half

[@lnidux]

They're half: "Comfort and fit exactly where and when it is needed. The perfect wearability of our tailored jackets is also obtained thanks to the special natural canvas that extends from the shoulder down through the chest. This construction, known as half-canvassing, provides the garment with a better fit and makes it more comfortable to wear."

[@AngelPl4y3r]

Hey question , are you trying both suits in this video? I don’t know if it was just the lighting but I think I saw both a grey suit and navy blue but they look different to me...

[@The_Kavalier]

Yes I did show a clip of the first one but I have a whole video for it on the channel

[@jociaszamora2267]

How much was this three piece suit because the cheapest fabrics plus a waist coat comes out to around $900? Are waistcoats included when selecting the "suit" option or do you have purchase a waistcoat separately?

[@EnthusiasticGoat]

Jocias Zamora Try suit supply. Their great

[@The_Kavalier]

Oops I should have mentioned the base suit was $600 then additional for extra pants and vest

[@The_Kavalier]

Yes tough to beat their OTR selection and fit

[@charleybrewster6363]

Hey Kav, this is unrelated to the video but I've been using your brand tracker to help me shop and I have an issue. There was a brand under something to the effect of 'basics' that had some really cool jackets and now it seems that entire section of your brand tracker is gone. Which really sucks. Any idea what happened and if you have an older version of your brand tracker so I can relocate that website? Thanks!

[@The_Kavalier]

I didn't but I'll look at the version history of the document maybe someone else did

[@The_Kavalier]

Added it back. Looks like someone accidentally deleted it

[@charleybrewster6363]

Thanks so much man! Also sorry for posting this question multiple times. It wasn't posting on my end so I thought it was something to do with my browser. Thanks again!

[@13dove]

Where did you go to get fitted for this suit?

[@The_Kavalier]

Paris. Video on the channel

[@watchrob77]

Looks great man! I'm picking up my new custom suit this Wednesday from a local tailor! Very excited

[@alexisknows6513]

Watch Rob do a video on your new suit....we have to support the independent shops

[@dthomson409]

is the linen shirt from oliver wicks?

[@The_Kavalier]

www.oliverwicks.com/product/natural-linen-shirt

[@photonatjag]

Have you tried Lanieri M2M shirts yet?

[@The_Kavalier]

Just unboxed one. Video coming!

[@jase65]

Do you prefer Lanieri over Oliver wicks in the 500.00 price point for MTM?

[@The_Kavalier]

I think you'll have more options for fabrics and colors at Oliver Wicks at that price point.

[@jase65]

@thekavalier Thanks. Another question, for you. I am debating on wether to get the navy micro dot suit which is a unique color at a 690 price point. Vs the Oliver Wicks premium dark navy at 599. Which suit would you recommend between the two for work, interviews, weddings, etc...? I like your videos and was on the fence between black lapel and oliver wicks since the last MTM video you made. However, since you came up with this review I am not looking in between oliver wicks and Lanieri.

[@kaziiqbal7257]

I spotted the Kingsman influence right away haha

[@happyteo37]

I'm looking for an affordable (~30$) pack of at least 6 pairs of socks. Which would you recommend for everyday use?

[@EnthusiasticGoat]

Akane dont buy in bulk. And buy from mack weldon. You can but in the long run you will replace them with better stuff anyway.

[@happyteo37]

honestly 15$ for a pair is too much for me right now so i'm looking for the best in the "bulk category"

[@Kale_Kale]

I wear uniqlo socks and they serve me well especially for the pricepoint.

[@kentrichardsonofficial]

What’s the name of the shirt brand you mention in the first few seconds?

[@williamwright7538]

Hello, I discovered your videos last night and went exploring. However, when I pulled up Lianeri on the phone, I got (a) not yet in the USA and (b) a reply back in Italian. Now, I don't speak Italian so how do I get an English translation? I'd love to see what they have for suits but also tuxedos (which I wear more often than not). I'm also a bow tie lover so do you wear them and do you have any leads for them? Also do you wear French Cuffs? If not you should. My last tuxedo purchase was actually two of them last spring for my Class Reunion and it was a Jos. A . Bank Custom Reserve order. Have you checked them out a stop custom? I think you'd be well pleased with them as I am. I can tell you one thing: if you do order a custom MTM tux from anyone, be prepared to have many people tell you that you look dashing, handsome, sophisticated etc. I've had it all and that's what I was expecting. Anyway, my main concern in commenting was trying to discover an English translation and if you can help me out there, it'd be so fine! I'm not as bad of a clotheshorse, but next to music, it's a definite preoccupation as I love to look good! Thanks for giving me another video series to pursue.

[@emilioetchegoyen7871]

What about the vest?

[@The_Kavalier]

I had it on in one of the first shots but you can't see it under the jacket. Will put pics on Instagram

[@styzoom]

This is indeed a nice suit, how is it holding up so far?

[@endautrestermes]

you earned yourself a sub; one question tho: do you know the lining's fabric ?

[@sukhdarshansinghsehmbi8607]

Not sure about the shipping to the U.K. I'm sure they do ship to the U.K. Will have to find out, loved your grey one& the Navy one is just as equal, a Win Win situation, will be checking into this later, good job again Johnny keep it up

[@KalebChesnicFlutist]

The pooling of fabric at the top of your back is because your shoulders are higher than the pattern was made for. Ordering a sloped shoulder would actually make it worse, because that would make the shoulder even lower. You should see if they have a lower collar option (sometimes referred to as raise back). Looks like a nice fit otherwise,

[@TheAvesMYSTR]

Kaleb Chesnic a tailor can take up the excess under the collar in next to no time. Very simple job on several RTW suits I sell. Obviously on made to measure it's something you can identify first.

[@KalebChesnicFlutist]

TheAvesMYSTR I know. It’s called a lower collar, or a raise back. Kind of like what I said in my first comment. The point I was trying to make is that asking to slope the shoulder from the start is going to make it worse, not better.

[@trueflipper]

Great video love all you’re tips. Question tho in you’re MTM video you voted for Oliver wicks. Would this brand bet that? Looking for a MTM suit that’s worth the money but don’t wanna keep trying diff company’s just want the best and stay with them. Thank you

[@The_Kavalier]

It would but they don’t offer as many options in the ~$500 price point so OW still wins IMO

[@trueflipper]

The Kavalier thank you for you’re reply

[@hockuspockus911]

What are these loafers? I need them! ;)

[@The_Kavalier]

6'4", Jesus Christ dude, are you the modern day slender

[@knutmoestue9443]

Hey, thanks for a great channel. Have you tried the Italian online shoe brand Velasco?

[@ishowyouapple]

Personally I feel that the pants are a tiny bit too skinny, and short. Also for the $399-$700 price range which company do you recommend right now? SuitSupply?

[@The_Kavalier]

MTM?

[@TheColognePatron]

I'm sorry, where did you get your linen shirt? I couldn't quite understand. English is not my first language. Great video, by the way. Nice review.

[@MBisFrenchy]

So at the 399-499 suit price point what do you suggest?

[@EnthusiasticGoat]

MBisFrenchy suit supply. Trust me on this. If you dont believe me go check out some of alpha m. Videos with them. I buy from them all the time. Hell I have a henley and double monks from them. Their price for product is very fair. You get what you pay for.

[@MBisFrenchy]

Small Boots I got actually the Navy plain 110's a year ago. Really happy with it after seeing the brooks Brothers red fleece line which was full of stitching issues. Got several complements on the Suit, but now they raised it to $499 from 399 as I was thinking of getting another gray suit in a similar price point 399-599.

[@The_Kavalier]

Definitely agree with Suit Supply and Oliver Wicks has nice options in this price point as well. Waiting for my Hockerty jacket but they do blends which I am not crazy about

[@MBisFrenchy]

The Kavalier Thanks. Not interested in blends. What silk ties do you usually buy for your suits?

[@npxmnpxm]

Which Lanieri store did you go to? I only see European locations.

[@The_Kavalier]

Paris

[@timtriolo]

Great video. I need to give them a try!

[@sukhdarshansinghsehmbi8607]

Need to order a couple of brandnew suits myself& get rid off the old ones

[@ThaFashionAssassin]

I got a Lanieri blazer on the way!

[@sweetwater718]

Truly a great fitting suit!!!

[@zigrat88]

Have you tried any Lanieri Shirts? I'm looking for a company that can accommodate a 18.5 neck (which is not many)

[@deanchristensen4783]

Outside of the mistake you made including the oxfords, I like the video. That suit is beautiful and works so well with the horsebit loafers. You should get a tuxedo along with the Opera pumps, Jon.

[@stevekelley7484]

NICE COLLAR ROLL...

[@bandicootcollector]

The jacket looks nice, but why the fuck are the trousers so tight?

[@syrah96]

so i assume ur job took u to Italy so as not 2 add to the cost of the suit ?

[@IRockLikeISaid]

I did notice some pocket flaring on the pants though, or was it just illusion?

[@The_Kavalier]

Just how I was standing/moving

[@edoardocodaccipisanelli]

well done! now a good pair of socks will help.

[@terrystephens1102]

Looking very sharp, excellent quality for the price.

[@biaggio45]

Super sharp !

[@FitManStyle]

That's a nice looking suit, never heard of that company. Looks like it's worth checking out

[@jimcook4156]

Great review. Just my opinion, but it might be a good idea to order a second pair of trousers in a fuller, more classical cut. While the jacket looks fine, I have a feeling the skinny pants look is going to be extremely dated in a few years. It would be a shame to have to dump all your suits a couple of years from now when the pants are the only problem.

[@eezy4693]

Check out Hart Shaffner Marx

[@nerf_herder90]

If you could do me a favor and gain about 130lbs that'd be cool. I'm tall and heavy, with an inverted triangle build.

[@foiihan]

I see the kingsman vibe with the double breasted and peak lapel, but I don't know why to me it looks very Great Gatsby 😄

[@The_Kavalier]

I'll take either one!

[@renesanchez5333]

That’s a nice suit

[@christopherborsani1711]

Have you reviewed World of Alfa? www.worldofalfa.com - reasonably priced custom suits and I’d be curious to hear your opinion compared to the other suit companies you have tried.

[@federanger]

as always love your videos but i Still think English Mills are better like ; Scabal and holland Sherry

[@charleybrewster6363]

So I just posted this comment and now it's been deleted? I don't get it. Anyways, I'll post it again. I've been using your brand tracker and had found a great company under one of your categories called 'Basics' or something, I can't remember. This category has disappeared from your brand tracker and I can't remember the company name. Do you know what happened or if there is an older version of your brand tracker I could use to relocate this website? Thank you.

[@The_Kavalier]

I didn't but I'll look at the version history of the document maybe someone else did

[@sukhdarshansinghsehmbi8607]

Gorgeous suit my word I really do love it it's beautiful & the quality of it in your video is excellent a great combination of a 3 piece including the waistcoat/vest all included in the price, + $100 off using your referral code will definitely order one

[@Mg95a]

Nice suit. Not too keen on the double breasted suits myself because I do prefer having a waistcoat underneath. Just makes me feel that little bit smarter and I don't necessarily need to button the suit

[@ChristianOlivari]

the lines are not correctly aligned. it's a bad job

[@brucew.5292]

You are correct, look at the sleeves. They don’t even appear to be consistently misaligned. Poor form

[@oadefisayo]

Beautiful!!

[@bkcpisme]

The jacket really looks cheap when you raise your arms.

[@mikalrain]

bkcpisme Maybe not cheap, but I also found it weird that the movement looked a little constricted.

[@goude19]

Well that’s what mtm suits will get you, it’s a lower armholes cut, if you want a high armholes cut you and other more customization you have to go full bespoke I guess!

[@bkcpisme]

I think that is only true in some cases. I have a MTM from some random place and, while there are other things wrong with it, the armholes are high enough so as to not make the whole jacket move weirdly when you try to reach for something. It depends more on what their standard design is that they're building off of, more than the fact that it's MTM.

[@mikalrain]

bkcpisme That's useful insight. Thanks!

[@TheBrooklynHustle]

Why do you go so damn tight on everything?

[@robertomirandacouture2780]

Great videos. Im a menswear designer entrepreneur and plan to sell made to measure trhu web. All this videos are usefull to me. Thanks!!

[@Kale_Kale]

Very nice suit. Double breasted suits really look amazing when done right like this...

[@waltersickinger1499]

The pants look like leggings....much too tight.....they cling and bind everywhere.

[@toobalkain]

you're not really the body type for double breasted, looks off somehow, with such height and long legs a good suit should look stunning
