I have a particular interest in so called Golf Jackets/Blousson, and have a number of them.They are all made in Italy, mostly from Sulka (bought on sale) and of different cloths:

1) covert cloth/cashmere lined (Sulka)
2) all silk (Brioni)
3) microfiber (burnt orange/ Belseta, Paul Stuart private label)
4) oxford cloth (private label Carroll and Co.,Beverly Hills)
5) so called Parachute cloth (Carroll and Co.)
6) cotton/reversible Sulka
7) cotton/reversible Sulka
8) suede (Schiatti, purchased in Perugia)

I am curious where these are made (I knowSchiatti is somewhere in No. Italy), and I have heard someplace specializez in these, again in Northern Italy? Are there any sources for a bespoke jacket in the cottons or covert cloths?
