Hi everyone,

I'm Hieu from Vietnam. I've been collecting heritage leather jackets for time, but only recently started paying serious attention to RTW suits.

So far I've had the opportunity to own or wear:
  • Brioni (Italy)
  • Stile Latino (Naples, Italy)
  • Santorio Napoli (Italian tailoring)
  • Ring Jacket Meister (Japan)
Each brand seems to represent a different philosophy of tailoring, even within the same price range. Rather than asking "Which brand is the best?", I'm more interested in how different countries approach tailoring.

For those with more experience:
  • Which RTW makers best represent Italy today?
  • Which British makers deserve the same recognition?
  • Which Japanese brands have impressed you the most?
  • Are there any exceptional American or other European RTW makers worth exploring?
I'd love to hear your personal experiences instead of marketing rankings.
I know tailoring is ultimately about fit and personal preference, so I'm not looking for a definitive ranking—I'm simply interested in learning from members with hands-on experience across different makers.
