First of all, this is a video of a suit made of Zegna cloth, not made by Zegna.I was watching this video on a Zegna suit being made, and around the 8 minute mark they are adding a black layer that looks like a fusible layer?
The canvas layer is the white/tan piece.
the black layer is a fusible?
pretty sure Zegna is full canvas. I have one and when I feel/pinch the bottom of the jacket the front and inner piece of the cloth feel the same (meaning I don’t feel any fusible material attached to the front) and I can feel the floating canvas
Second, I don’t think the black material is fusible because fusible is literally bonded/glued to the fabric with heat and pressure. This looks to be sewn to the fabric.
Zegna suits (not ZZegna) are indeed fully canvassed. But some fully canvassed jackets can use a very thin skin fusing that is difficult to feel because it is so thin.
