Nisida Suit Navy

A navy suit on Borrelli's Nisida model, with a three-roll-two jacket, patch pockets and matching trousers. The lapel rolls softly past the top button, which stays open, a signature of Neapolitan tailoring that gives the jacket an easy, unforced line.

Nisida takes its name from the small island in the Gulf of Naples, the city where the suit is tailored. Luigi Borrelli concentrates its handwork on the parts that matter in wear, the soft shoulder, the collar, the buttons and the breast pocket, and sews every buttonhole by hand, combined with machine work where it makes the garment stronger.

Patch pockets give a navy suit a slightly softer, less corporate character, so the jacket also works on its own with grey trousers or jeans. Wear the suit with a white or light blue shirt and a knitted tie for the office, or with a fine roll-neck for dinner. The fit is regular and tailored; take your usual suit size.
