G...The $2995 is made by Cantarelli, the $3295 is made by St. Andrew's.

G...The St. Andrew's label has been the same since I first encountered it in Louis, Boston in the mid-80's. It's the same label that you will find in the garments that they've made for Barbera, Sulka, Harrison James etc. The Cantarelli label is also fairly easy to recognize. Other labels that manufactuer for others that are easily recogzied category would be Belvest, Isaia and Vestimenta. Maybe we should do a sticky post on labels?

They are made by St. Andrews. and the 2995 is Canterelli which is a company I believed owned by St. Andrews. I actually found out about Canterelli from this Forum and it has become one of my favorites for suits.
