Recently bought a new with tags Isaia suit.
Upon receiving it, I'm getting worried it may be counterfeit.
Person I bought it from mentioned this may just be due to differences in collections over the year - still, would rather have a second opinion before I decide to keep or return.

Mainly worried about:
- The interior tag showing size is in Red as opposed to Blue
- The hook thing in the Collar does not have the Coral in there
- Lining doesn't have any coral logo's on there
- No Red Line inbetween wool and start of the lining.

Thanks for the 2nd opinion. Any third opinions out there? There's more ethrift were that came from, but i'm still hesitant.

IS THIS A GENUINE BURBERRY TRENCH? ANY IDEA OF THE STYLE NAME AND ROUGH AGE OF THE STYLE?

Hi, I am Mark.I am 34 and I have recently joined the forum. I heard it was a great place to get some insight into the authenticity of luxury items such as Burberry. I am a post graduate student and enjoy trying to find a good bargain online or in stores- it is like a little hobby to see if you can find some good treasure.

Anyway, this item I recently came across online and was rather interested in it. I have a Burberry Heritage range- Kensington Mid already, which I managed to secure at an outlet mall in the UK- it is in beige. I was keen for a black one, and was looking for a more vintage style, but then found this one and was thereafter really interested in the item.

I'd really appreciate it if you would tell whether or not this supposedly ' authentic' Burberry trench is authentic or not.

My query is, the hang tag with the price is different to any styles I have seen before - The older Burberry said London, England in italics And the newer generations hang tags have a different font and brown, stating Burberry London. Also, I am unsure if this is the older Burberry range and a rough age of the style, given the Burberry tag inside. My current coat says Burberry, England London, with the royal emblems on the inside label.

Lastly, the stitching on the nova plaid of the neck is Zig zagged. I have never seen that on the neck of the trench coats - is this usually a feature?

I really appreciate your input in this instance. Thanks in advance... Have a great day.

Mark :)
