How do you know? I thought Trofeo was a type of cloth sold by Zegna.

That's a Zegna label, so there's no doubt about the manufacturer. The garment maker will always put their own brand label on the inside of the jacket. For instance, if you buy a jacket made for Saks with Loro Piana cloth, you aren't going to get a Loro Piana label. If you want extra piece of mind, check out the manufacturer's tag on the inside coat pocket and do a search for Zegna manufacturer tags to compare.

The first guy answered your question thoroughly. Why did you bump?

Just wanted a second opinion. Robot's view is consistent with what I originally thought, until I read this:

and this

No one sells suits that are just made wih Zegna fabric and puta Zegna label in the inside. Seriously, it's made by Zegna. For 100% security, just take a picutre of the inside breast pocket tag and post it here.

Also there's a function that allows you to imbed pictures directly rather than files that people then have to download - click on the box between the film strip and the paperclip.
