"Who made me?" --Jacket

[chorse123]

Can anyone identify the maker of this jacket from the label? If it's any help, it's a tan casual jacket with a built in hood (an M65 style jacket, I believe) and the zippers are "riri". The main tag has been removed. It was beneath the inside right pocket. Thanks!

Well, it has extremely good zippers. How about a pic of the jacket?

Here are a few:

Not sure the name of the factory, but I think it might be the same one that makes Hugo Boss black label. Despite the italian writing, I don't think the factory is actually in Italy. I could be wrong on all accounts though.

JS, I'll do you a favor. Since it's my size I'll take it off your hands. Your closet is too high end to have a no name jacket in it

Looks a lot like the La Matta labels in my jackets.

It is really freakin' nice, so I think I'm going to keep it. All the white bits are lambskin and the cotton has a great hand. Am curious to see what my wife thinks, and need to try it on a few more times as it is a little big for me. So it may end up on buying and selling, but then again...

You kid, but I saw a whole rack of Members Only jackets at Filene's the other day. WTF?!?!?!?

I think you may be right, I think I saw something with a tag. Will have to check.

If it's got leather trim, it's La Matta for certain!

Does it have an RN number you could look up:

?

This will be problematic, come cleaning time.

Could it be Byblos?

 

[chorse123]

It is definitely LaMatta. Of course Aportnoy would get it!

It's 9 brothers are also Lamatta.

This could probably be moved to buying & selling, but does anyone have a guess at the MSRP for something like this? Ebay isn't turning up much except a couple of suede shirts for $1000.

Depending on the retailer, $850-$1250.
