(1) My SA said that many of their house brand SCs are Isaia-made (label says "Italy")? True?

(2) Anyone know when they'll hold their next sale? Saw two really nice SCs there today (perhaps Isaia's) but $1000 per seems high.

Thanks!

possible.

Isaia labels are pretty distinctive and they make/made suits/jackets for lots of people, including Brooks Brothers in the 90's.

check the ID label section of the forum for picture.

I know that Caruso makes Barney's branded jackets.

If they were $1000 and are truly made by isaia, they are probably equivalent to the Corallorosso line they did for Nordstrom. Nice quality at the price (full canvas) but no hand finishing as on mainline isaia.

Great idea on the label; I'll compare.

Anyone know when the next SFA sale occurs?
