That's funny, over the last couple days I've been watching the first season of Boardwalk (Tivo) and was wondering who they used.

Wonder what kind of clothes he makes for Brooks Brothers.

 

[Tomasso]

He makes their MTM (he still holds trunk shows at 346 Mad afaik) as well as their Golden Fleece line.

Interesting. I haven't bought any Brooks Brothers business suits in some time, but I have a couple of Golden Fleece jackets that are really quite nice and are cut well for me.

I see Brooks Brothers sells a Golden Fleece three button suit. Do you know if it is similar in cut and construction to the Brooks Brothers suits of old or have any other thoughts on its quality?

as well as their Golden Fleece line.

Only some of it. Some of the GF line is now Made in Italy, I don't know by whom.

What a great article, does anyone else feel obligated to go and learn the business that Mr. Greenfield has? Boy, I sure do.

The Italian-made BBGF are typically Isaia. BBBF has been both Martin Greenfield and Caruso.

J. Press MTM is also Greenfield.
