First Canali store opens in Hanoi

One of Italy’s major fashion symbols, Canali, will see its first store in Hanoi open on August 16 by its exclusive distributor, Danti Fashion.

Ideally located at 63 Ly Thai To, in the heart of central Hoan Kiem district and close to popular tourist sites such as Hoan Kiem Lake and the Hanoi Opera House, the new Canali store features an area of 263 sq m with a modern interior design rich in art and Italian beauty and offering men a selection of clothes, accessories, leather shoes, and sportswear, etc. A VIP room offers customers a comfortable time while making their choice.

The new store will introduce Canali’s 2018 collection, which features the highest-quality natural fabrics, smart fabric technology, and many breakthroughs in the design of suits, blazers, trousers and jackets for men, for both business or leisure.

The appearance of Impeccabile 2.0, a fabric exclusively produced for Canali, is a special breakthrough, combining outstanding features and suitable for daily wear by men who are constantly on the move. 

Impeccabile 2.0 is part of the Impeccabile series that was first introduced in 2016, after research by Canali into smart fabrics. Soft and elastic, Impeccabile 2.0 is made from ultra-fine wool that is extremely soft and resilient. Fibers measure a mere 17.5 microns and are twisted more than double the number of times as a normal fiber, creating an unprecedented level of stretch that is totally natural at the same time. It is also creaseless, breathable, resistant to water and stains, and naturally flexible – a winning formula that takes daily refinement to the next level. 

Canali describes and inspires the impeccable characteristics of Impeccabile 2.0 through a short film called “The Race”, which follows two parkour artists, Chase Armitage and Patrick Nodanche, dressed in Impeccabile 2.0 suits as they race through the mountains, fields and the city showing their amazing talent. The challenge tested the flexibility and fineness of their outfits.
