UFOs: Unidentified Fashion Objects - The Fake, Phoney and Just Plain Funny

And as thrifters, we often come across things that are just plain odd. Nothing we'd want to buy, but things we might want to at least tell people about. This thread thread is a place to document these. Who knows, maybe it'll eventually become a resource about fake labels and the full range of XXXXX Uomo lines.
Basic ground rules:

• These should at least be seen "in the wild". There's no sense posting a photo of a Burrbury or a Zenga label that you've found online.
• Photos are great but not all of us have camera phones handy. Despatch bulletins are alright.
• As far as odd things go, let's try to avoid lookbook photos and fit pics. In some cases that might be like shooting fish in a barrel. Let hard work and serendipity reign!

I've seen a few things that have given me pause. The latest was a suit with a rather intriguing fabric that was Hand Tailored in Islamabad. But alas, no picture. My personal Holy Grail would be a horizontal pin stripe suit.
But I'll kick things off with a rather minor oddity. Not MC at all but strange nonetheless.
