Gorgeous,natural fabric, Made-in-Italy, what more could one want? BRAVI to DeMarchi (and also to our official supplier Santini) who continue to produce their beautiful products in ITALIA, unlike so many others. Santini made us a Sportwool jersey a few years ago and our clients love them! They told us at the time it was the last of this material, but we hope they bring it back when it's time for us to reorder.
