This product is differentiated for the mid-tier market by offering a more modern and versatile take on the original. A four-button closure is used for a slightly more contemporary look compared to the classic six-button style. The color is changed to charcoal grey to provide a stylish alternative to basic black. The inclusion of double back vents enhances comfort and ease of movement, appealing to a consumer who values both style and practicality.

Differentiation is achieved through subtle yet significant refinements that signal a higher level of luxury and design. The fabric is a hopsack weave, offering a more textured and breathable alternative to grain de poudre. The color is a deep midnight blue, a sophisticated choice that stands out from standard black. Design details like the wider lapels, a "barchetta" chest pocket, and the absence of vents create a unique and fashion-forward statement. The five-button "kissing" cuffs are a further nod to bespoke tailoring traditions.
