"I've found the textures to be some of the most realistic available, with minor details such as wrinkles and shadows that give the fabric a wonderful 3d effect. Most of the jeans come with prim legs which by now, is almost required for sharp dressing in sl. Overall, a great shop with good selections and not bad prices." Very honest Nic, thank you for taking to time to share your thoughts about what you enjoy about this stores designs, enjoy your gift for your wonderful review.


I personally found Sartoria to have a very tame, but sophisticated take on casual male clothing. It maybe a bit predictable, but very well made and with great detail. I don't particularly see many men on SL wearing a plum feathered hat with horns and a few diamonds (Gah, the horrid thought that it may exist...lol), but a nice casual sweater, with wonderful textures and a nice pair of jeans, that allows for that sense of masculine individuality, most definitely.
Sartoria's formal male clothing as shown below was very well made, with a great eye for small details, that gave the ensemble just the right edge it needed. I find the suits merely accentuate the male form, without overpowering the models frame, it does not make the model look overly buffed and as I call them 'roid droids' (steroid user, for our laymen), there is something to be said for quiet demure, that serves to merely add to the individual, than overpower their being. Great work Sartoria, I must say I am impressed and so to are your loyal customers.
