BOSS Hugo Boss Selection: Luxury Defined
July 31, 2006 by Gucci
The joys of luxury, can you feel them as you stride around in a Boss Selection Super 150 suit?
The German luxury clothing line was established in Metzingen in 1923. Its beginnings were rather dark as the company was involved in clothing the Third Reich. Officers, troops and the dreaded SS were clothed in Hugo Boss’s suits. The connection lasted even after WWII ended in 1945, unfortunately Mr. Boss died in 1948. If was not until 1953 that the clothing line once again gained notoriety when it presented its first suit for menswear. Years later the company has been at the pinnacle of luxury wear for men and women. The brand has become most recognizable by its athletic fit suits, and shirts. The Brand carries separate labels of clothing known as Hugo, Boss Black, Boss Green, Boss Orange, and Boss Selection.
The Hugo label, which is limited to only a few stores in the U.S.A, carries clothing that is trendy and designed for individuals seeking to express their personal style.
The Boss Black label carries clothing for a more casual elegance. Classic slim fitting pants including virgin wool slacks, and tamed accented sport shirts recognize the style. You will also find the most superior form fitting dress shirts, and the large variety of colors is unmatched. Dress ties cover a large degree of designs and colors, ranging from conservative to peacock.
The Boss Green label is known for its sportswear. Clothing includes sweatpants, sweatshirts, sweat wicking shirts, climate wear, and its comfortable athletic fit.
The Boss Orange label conjures images of youth, and style. The label is known for its unique and energetic designs. Slim fit jeans, youthful designed t-shirts, stylish jackets, eye catching leather sneakers, and innovative sweatshirts make this label a favorite with stylish men.
Boss Selection is the top of line, most luxurious and custom fit line that Hugo Boss has the pleasure to create. The line is most well known for its finest fabrics producing some of the most soft to the touch and lightweight suits in the world. The super 120, 140, and 150 suit is synonymous with this line. The number describes the stitches per one inch of fabric. The line also carries its first fragrance; the scent is light and recognized as fresh aquatic notes.

Boss Black Label is fast becoming a favorite of mine; sleek lines, modern finish and top quality fabrics all contribute to the vibe. Thanks for the introduction, Sir Gucci.
Piacere.
Dear Gucci,
the super number has nothing to do with the stitches by inches.
Take a kilogramm of a fabric yarn and you will receive 120 meters of length with a S’120 fabric. The same kilogramm with a length of 150 meters will offer you a S’150 fabric, etc. I think this is the best and easiest way to explain.
The HUGO label is available worldwide, not only in the US.
Largest market is Germany.
I agree with you in terms of BOSS Selection, which is a real breathtaking collection!
Am looking for a particular Boss Selection suit. Can anyone help me?
The suit I am interested in appears in the DETAILS magazine October 2007, Volume 26, issue 01. Brad Pitt appears on the cover.
The suit appears on page 50, which is the contents page, it says down the spine of the page that the suit is Boss Selection.
If somebody could give me the details of this suit that would be great ie: Style number, Colour number etc.
I live in Melbourne Australia and it is uncertain if this suit will be released here for winter 08, as your winter 07 is actually our summer 07.
So I need to try to hassle Hugo Boss Australia to order it in.
Thank you.
whats with the different hugo boss color labels
like orange red black green blue
i heard best quality is blue and worst is orange
like worst to best order:
orange,red,green,blue but i dont know where black comes in like is it true or what does the color labels mean like is there a difference or just in the style
The different color labels represent different styles and not a difference in quality.
I wonder what handbags are of better quality - Gucci or Fendi? What’s your opinion?
I think Boss suits are excellent too, but beware their in-store tailors, better to go to your own.
