Ralph Lauren lines, and 'who makes what' - a definitive guide

Who makes the black label shoes for RL?
I know the first post says C&J.

But the ones i see in the boutique shoes made in Italy.

And the SA has no idea who C&J even is LOL !

The Purple label made in Italy shoes is made by Sasetti I believe. Not sure about the black label but they look cheap to be honest

This a legit PRL logo, it's green which threw me of but measures small for an XL, boy's label maybe?

Thanks

I have never seen a legit green PRL label.

How about all the "polo jeans company" on Yoox? Are they a defunct line?

Basically just want to know if this is just J. Crew level or RRL level

AFAIK, Polo Jeans Company is pretty low. Think Denim & Supply or Lauren.

Anyone know who makes the Blaksdale suede boots?

For $75, I think they're a pretty good deal, but I can't find any info on who makes them. I read somewhere that RL bought up the old Ansewn factory in Maine to make their boat shoes, but these aren't really boat shoes.

Can someone tell me who made these RLBL shoes? I am thinking about buying another pair. Fudge, the pic uploaded upside down. MADE IN ITALY.

I would appreciate some help asap, please.

Are all Polo Ralph Lauren Blue Label suits that are Made in Italy made by Corneliani and/or Signature Line?

If 'no', how can I distinguish which is which?

Blue Label made in Italy is Corneliani. Signature line is no more.

Thank you. And what does this tell me? Are the suits fused, half pr fully canvassed? Do they include hand work, if so, like what? I guess what I want to know is what are the quality advantages with the Blue Label made by Corneliani?

Thanks in advance.

All of Polo Blue Label stuffs made by Corneliani are half canvassed. If any suit or sportcoat had pick stitching on them, it is probably hand ticked.

Other than that, everything is machine made.

But even though they are half canvassed, I would place them on top of the level. If i get to choose between Hickey Freeman(fully canvassed) vs Polo Blue Label, I would pick Polo.
