Honestly, I found Tom's comment about RTW patterns interesting. I don't know if it is true but I would like to know. Hearing opposing views is actually helpful.
This varies from maker to maker and depends on the skill of the pattern maker. I, personally, have different bodies, or cuts, for eastern Canada and for Western Canada, as well as for the coastal US vs the midwest and the southern states. Within those different areas I will offer different cuts. I can't think off hand of exactly how many different fits I have in the system right now, but it's between 15 and 20. In each fit, or body, we will maintain all the different button, lapel, pocket and vent configurations so we are talking about massive numbers of pattern pieces. And these are all reviewed every season.
Do you mean that if I bought the same coat by the same brand in the same size in Montreal and in Vancouver they would be noticeably different? Do most high-end makers do this? It's hilarious when one thinks of all the SF threads in which people ask how a certain item from a certain brand fits.
I would second this, actually.

It would likely be branded differently, and if not, it would definitely be named differently. Every manufacturer has a stable of different brands and labels, each will be geared to a slightly different market segment. Think Zegna's Roma and Milano, Z zegna, Zegna couture etc.

How disappointingly plebeian.
How viable is it for a manufacturer to sell the Milano on the east- and the Roma on the west-coast
Is it better than my Despos Discount?
Well, insomuch as I actually honor it,
This is because I am objective in addition to being wise.
That comes with age.
