The Cobalt Suit — Half Canvas | GRECO BIANCHI
Masterfully tailored and rooted in the Italian sartorial tradition — the GRECO BIANCHI suit brings contemporary refinement to every occasion. Precise lines, enduring construction, and an effortless silhouette that commands the room without effort.
The Fabric
Woven from Italian S110 super-fine wool — 280g/m², 100% pure — sourced from the historic mills of Biella. The cloth drapes with authority, breathes through the longest days, and carries a quiet lustre that catches the light. Each color is chosen not for the season, but for permanence.
Half Canvas Construction
At the chest, a floating layer of horsehair canvas and linen is hand-stitched — never fused, never glued. Over months of wear, the canvas molds precisely to the contour of your body, building a silhouette that is yours alone. This is the distinction between a suit that endures a decade and one that surrenders after a season.
The Cut
A notch lapel, two-button stance, and a suppressed waist that defines without restricting. The trousers are cut with a flat front, mid-rise, and a clean taper through the leg — contemporary in proportion, classical in spirit.

Sizing & Care
Available in US chest sizes 38–52 (even sizes), cut to American proportions with a European taper. If between sizes, size up — half-canvas accepts alterations exceptionally well. Dry clean only. Store on a wide wooden hanger. Brush after each wear and rest between wearings — the wool needs time to recover its form.
