Every suit needs support in the front panels to create and hold shape. This is where canvassing comes in, canvas is the layer between the jacket fabric and the interior lining. we use a full floating horsehair canvas, unlike the cheaper fused options used in most off the rack or tailored suits. Each of our fully hand stitched suits has a full canvas sewn into the jacket. This results in the jacket draping better on the body, holding it's shape, feeling more comfortable and providing greater breathability.
