Quote: The first page of this thread is wrong. It comes up every couple hundred posts or so. It's a Corneliani label like many have said. I have never seen a Caruso label in a Polo made jacket. Black Label, yes but not for Polo Ralph Lauren. Post a pick if you find one.

Side note.... I know it's one of the slightly less talked about makers.... for Ferragamo, need to add it to my list.

This is the label info inside a pair of Barrie Bootmakers Ltd. "made in England" oxfords. From what I've read, most of their English shoes were made by Cheaney, this looks about right. Can any of you guys confirm that these are Cheaneys, 175 last, size 11?

Any ideas on either of these?


I know it says Zegna, but the jacket has one of the "cloth by Zegna" labels and it does not match other Zegna labels. Someone else posted a similar label earlier but it doesn't appear that anyone responded.

On a Saks made in Italy blazer. Someone also posted a similar label under Barneys and noted a similarity to Piattelli but there did not seem to be any consensus.

Anyone have any idea who made this? It's on an really nice quilted wool jacket with a corduroy trim from Gian Decaro's Outerwear (he's a bespoke tailor in Seattle but the jacket is obviously not bespoke)

I currently work at an Ermenegildo Zegna store and haven´t seen this label in any suit jacket or coat...maybe is an old Zegna label

I can't help you with the 2nd one, but I've seen this label on house Saks 5th Ave Made in Italy suits-black or red label. I don't think it's a "name" maker, though.

Thanks! I didn't think it actually was Zegna but good to know.
