Today I located and purchased a coat, uncertain of its origin. It was clearly Italian and had very militaristic styling. A bit of googling has led me to determine that it is the uniform coat of L'Arma Dei Carabinieri, who appear to be a type of Italian military police. I believe this was produced by a company called Lanificio Cangioli, who appear to be a textile house from my googling.
I was drawn to the coat because of the red accents, silver hardware, interesting details, and quality construction. I just figured I'd share it with the forum. Any comments would be much appreciated. I believe the coat is being worn by the gentleman in this photo who appears to hold some sort of high rank (my familiarity with military culture is very limited, forgive any semantic missteps):
