Very nice but I think a collo doppio uso works so much better with all the details on this coat, makes it a true Polo coat for my taste. Still it is superb work and a lovely coat!

Lorenzo, let's see it on you! :)

Cheers

Superb superior workmanship. Henry Stewart quality workmanship. Museum quality workmanship. I am beyond impressed. Reminds me of the Paul Newman topcoat in "The Color of Money". Google it. That hand work and technical work Is beyond my hands.
