Where did you see Purple label sweaters made in China?
I only see 5 on the website,and they're all made in Italy.
My guess would be:cashmere sourced from Mongolia,yarn made in Italy,sweater knit(not woven)in Italy.As far as made in China products overall,I never know who actually made it.Can you list some names of top tier Chinese clothing manufacturers?Generally speaking,if a label says Barbera,Belvest,or St. Andrews I can be reasonably assured of at least a certain level of quality and know that they've been around for a long time with the quality being consistent.Even if I knew the name of a very good Chinese company,which I don't,I would still have no idea of how long they've been making something and at what consistency.Add to this the fact that if you go into J.Crew or Banana Republic literally everything is made In China,and it's all crap with the actual maker never listed.In my mind it just all gets lumped together and filed under "generic Chinese crap".If TJ Maxx/Marshalls can sell Chinese shirts for $10 and make a profit then what does that tell you about the quality of the fabric?Most decent mills,regardless of country of origin,don't even sell their cheapest fabric for that little.Maybe if some decent Chinese companies did some advertising and shipped a good product to establish some brand recognition then consumers would have more faith in purchasing their products.
The value of their labor is rising. I know this is distressing to many of the Caucasian Persuasion, but it's the truth. I don't like it any more than the next red-blooded, cashmere sweater-wearing, white American male, but them's the numbers kiddos.
As others have pointed out, the bottom line is how well a company implements their quality control. Provided they have stringent QC it shouldn't matter where a product is made.

Polo Ralph Lauren B&M stores that sell Purple Label sweaters.
Do you support racial profiling, too? More than a few undertones of xenophobia in your post. May be you should change your screen name to MacKKK?
The sooner Hu Jintao calls in the marker on your bankrupt nation, the better. Your asses belong to the Saudi's and the Chinese now. Deal with it.
Your response doesn't make sense. Why would a brand disclose who their manufacturers are? And when has any garment brand openly disclosed who the manufacturer is? Those are trade secrets and almost all companies work though agents anyway.
But you're not buying the Chinese company's product - you're buying an RLBL product. And that's the point of the brand name - regardless of wherever the product is made, it should have a certain level of quality that's synonymous with Ralph Lauren.

I agree about the QC,but so far nobody has named a single reputable Chinese company,NOT ONE. Can you name one?
Or for that matter,can you name a Chinese clothing maker at all,of any quality?
So you're saying that Kiton,Brioni,Caruso,and most Italian brands are made in China and only have Italian tags sewn in?I call bullshit,please cite some references.
It's amazing how difficult it is to read something with no spaces after any of the punctuation.
There is some great cashmere knitwear coming out of China now, on par with many European companies.
does made in china actually mean anything in terms of quality? what does it matter where it's made as long as quality control is the same?
