Fake Zegna, or just wonky?

I purchased two orphaned Z Zegna suit jackets off Ebay from a seller with 1000+ sales of authentic-sounding material and 100% positive feedback. But I am thrown because there are some wonky details

The SAKS tag is barely sewn on:

The Zegna label is totally crooked:

The buttons have this wonky slash through them:

BUT, the inside tags look authentic enough:

Anyone?

The inside tag is indeed an older Z Zegna label.
