I am looking for an alternative to espadrilles that is similarly or more breathable, but more durable and easier to clean. What do you think about loafers from densely perforated or loosely woven leather (images below)? What vibes do they give? Do you have any brands for these types of shoes you would recommend, or perhaps some alternatives? (The ones below are from Eterno Napoli and Velasca.)

See the title. I know that darker colors suit me more than light ones in general, but I'm not sure if I should also strictly follow this guideline for a summer Panama hat. What do you guys think?

I hope you aren't tired of my "asking for bespoke advice" topics yet. 😉 The final issue for my bespoke suit for now is the openness of the quarters. I wanted them more open to elongate my leg line as much as I can. The tailor already made them a bit more open since the previous fitting. However, I'm under the impression that it's still not enough. So the tailor tried pulling the quarters more open. You can see the "before and after" photos below for comparison between the current and possibly even more open angle. What do you guys think? I'm also under the impression that it's not just about the angle of quarters, but also their shape (which the tailor hasn't modified so far). These quarters are still a bit "square", instead of having their corners more rounded (more "cutaway") like in Italian jackets. (See third photo for an example of very open and rounded quarters to illustrate what I mean.) Do you agree? At this point, would you increase the openness angle, quarter shape, both, or perhaps neither?

Please let me know which V-opening depth suits me better. I've already figured out that relatively shallow openings suit me more, so I'm only hesitating between a relatively shallow opening (1/3rd of waistcoat height) and a very shallow one (1/4th of waistcoat height). You can also let me know what you think about the waistcoat length, as to create a longer leg line, I asked the tailor to make this one as short as possible.

Or are they just right? What do you guys think?
