Just bought some Tom Ford slacks off Ebay BNWT. They are made by Zegna (based on the inside tag), however instead of saying Made in Switzerland...they say Hecho in Suiza (obviously Spanish). Anyone ever seen this before? Should I be concerned about authenticity? Any info would be appreciated.

Zegna does have a factory in Switzerland. I have seen other Zegna products that are manufactured here. I don't know where it is exactly though.

Yes I know Zegna has a factory in Switzerland, I've just never seen a tag written in Spanish. I compared it point for point to my other pair of TF slacks that I purchased from a B&M store and couldn't detect a difference.

WTF is this world coming to?

Did not even know they can afford such luxury.

It's common. All it means is the item was made for a spanish speaking market.

I don't know about Ford but for Zegna the label will show the country it's aimed for. The main inside label with all the info.
