Green or Grenson? Maybe Sargent?

Looking for some help w/ identifying this jacket label. Any guidance would be appreciated. I was thinking it could be Caruso based on some similarities I've seen.

So I'm pretty sure this was Caruso based on a label that was previously identified on this thread or a similar one. Mine is on the left, and the SF posted one is on the right

A few for the team.


And these from Charles Tyrwhitt are likely Sander, right? I've seen them made by Loake, but I don't think this is Loake's sideawall text, but correct me if I'm wrong.

That looks like the printing inside a pair of Sanders loafers I tried on recently, but admittedly I just tried them on.

These Cole Haans are older Loakes Cheaneys, right? I'll add a photo of the nail pattern on the heel soon. Is "09-88" a date?



"8 1/2 D" there is certainly an American size, but I guess this is because they were made for an American company. The insole there is marked "made in England."

That's a tough one. I don't recognize it, and it doesn't match any of the pics I've got saved.

That's a touch one. I don't recognize it, and it doesn't match any of the pics I've got saved.

Thanks, I'm really having trouble placing it as well.

Hi there,

I have loved lurking around these posts and have found lots of fantastic info. I broke down and registered today so I can pick your brains on this jacket I picked up. I know there were wild times in the Yves Saint Laurent history, but I haven't been able to locate this particular label. Any help would be appreciated!

Any reasoning? The tag below seems to prove otherwise.
