HOF: Labels, heels and nail patterns - Secrets to ID the maker

[MJMcRibb]

Just want to double check this one, as I do not have any other jackets to verify with at the moment.

Jack Victor, yea? Can anyone Shed some light on Mark Shale?

I believe JV is correct. Mark Shale was retail store, I think, primarily in the Chicago area, but I don't think they're any longer in business. Jaz is the brand here. I picked up tie by them a while back that was made in NYC.

edit: Jaz was an Abboud line. http://nypost.com/2010/02/13/sour-note-at-abbouds-jaz/

Cool article, this is my first time seeing Jaz. And I must admit, this fabric is amazing on this jacket. Its like a lighter weight tweed, that just has a tremendous depth of texture to it in person. If it fit, t'would be in thy closet.

The tie I picked up was nice, as well. It did make it's way to my closet.

I thought Gruppo GFT had failed long ago? They used to make Armani/Mani in the 1980's. They were KILLER.

I believe its a USA made burberrys, but not a specific maker tag, that looks generic to me.

Cool. Thanks, Snoogz. Any guess on the era? I'm betting late 80s, maybe early 90s, but the detailing is fairly classic.

Yes.

BB used to be made by Isaia (confirmed by SF in past posts). Also, tag in the pic looks like a slightly modified regular Isaia tag. The font, layout are the same.
