A bespoke suit tailored in Nagoya.
CANONICO SUPER120'S: a quiet presence.
"One day, I'll get a bespoke suit."
Even with that thought, taking the first step can be surprisingly difficult.
More than the price or design,
will it truly suit me?
Will I be able to wear it for both work and holidays?
Many people open the doors of apartir with such thoughts.
This time, we introduce one such suit.
It's a three-piece suit tailored from CANONICO SUPER120'S fabric from Italy.
A suit begins with fabric selection.
It's often thought that ordering a suit starts with measurements, but we first ask, "What kind of time will you spend in this clothing?"
Will you wear it mostly for work?
Do you want to wear just the jacket on holidays?
Do you want it to last a long time, or do you want to add a bit of flair?
As we get a clearer picture of the wearer's lifestyle, the choice of fabric subtly changes.
The fabric chosen this time was CANONICO SUPER120'S.
Woven by a long-established mill in Italy's Biella region, with over 350 years of history, this fabric boasts a soft luster and a flexible, airy feel.
Neither too flashy nor too plain.
It's a beautiful classic that never looks dated, even after many years.
Classics reside in the details.
At first glance, this suit has a very understated appearance.
However, that impression is supported by an accumulation of subtle details.
The low-set belly peak lapel.
Slanted pockets and a change pocket, giving a British feel.
Side vents that balance ease of movement with a beautiful back silhouette.
And trousers with a deep rise and two inward pleats.
None of these designs are meant to be overtly conspicuous.
They are chosen for the sense of comfort felt the moment it's worn, and for a beautifully balanced appearance.
I believe that ordering a suit is about subtraction, not addition.
Personal touches in unseen places.
The paisley lining that appears only when the jacket is opened.
This playful touch isn't for others to see, but for you to feel a little better when wearing it.
Such "unseen luxuries" are one of the unique pleasures of bespoke tailoring.
Making the time spent getting dressed each morning just a little more enjoyable.
These little details nurture an attachment to the suit.
Completion is not the goal, but the beginning.
About one and a half months.
The moment a customer first tries on their finished suit, their expression subtly changes.
They naturally straighten their posture in front of the mirror.
They rotate their shoulders.
They put their hands in their pockets.
From these casual gestures, a sense of "this has become my clothing" is conveyed.
For us, this moment is the most joyful.
Tailoring not just clothes, but people.
apartir is both a select shop and a tailor.
That's why we don't just recommend fabrics or specifications.
A person's work.
Their holidays.
Their favorite clothes.
Whether they can continue to wear it ten years from now.
We propose each suit considering all these background factors.
A bespoke suit shouldn't be something special, but a tool that blends into everyday life.
"tailoring into everyday life"
We want to continue valuing this sentiment.
