    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can shorter men wear double-breasted?

    Absolutely. The myth comes from boxy 1980s cuts. A modern 6×2 with a high-buttoning stance and clean waist actually lengthens the line — it's the cut that matters, not the height of the wearer.

    6x2 vs 6x1 — which should I get?

    6×2 (six buttons, two fastening) is the timeless classic. 6×1 (one fastening button) is more fashion-forward and lengthens the lapel — popular at fashion weeks.

    How much?

    Made-to-measure starts around $2,150. Full bespoke in Tasmanian or Trofeo cloth runs $5,200–$9,800.
