Does Borrelli really charge six grand for this, or did this seller get mixed up with currencies?

If you look at it price/quality wise, they are WAY more expensive than Kiton et al. It is unreal. I was looking for some cords and the MTM price for cotton cords was $1200.

An obvious fake. You can tell by the wrinkles in the photographs. The $6k+ Borellis employ a nanotechnology (Micrononna) that causes the jacket to press itself.

There's not really anything wrong with that...

At that so-called retail price Borrelli = Bijan = more money than brains.

By the way, we haven't had any Bijan bashing threads in while!
