Make em an offer they can’t refuse. That’s what Canadian fashion designer Christopher Bates said in a speech when talking about his new Godfather capsule collection. The collaboration is a partnership with Paramount Pictures and is the second of its kind. The first was the recent Top Gun collection he created. In this lineup, Bates replicates the very tuxedo that Don Vito Corleone wore in the famous opening scenes of the Godfather.

Inclusive of Don Vito’s tuxedo, Bates also created a series of other pieces including hoodies, shirts and bomber jackets.
A number of options are available to suit every type of preference. Each item is created with careful craftsmanship and attention to quality/detail.
