I've only seen "K." coats and casual clothes, though that doesn't mean there aren't K. suits and sportcoats too. I'm reasonably sure the K. stuff I've seen has not had the same lining as mainline Kiton stuff, though.

I, too, think the levels of spin and myth-weaving on this thread are really funny. If nothing else, it's a really interesting insight into the mentality of the extremist right wing ideologue.

You shouldn't talk about Manton that way. Really.

Personally I don't have a dog in the fight, but until I see the label I'm filing this under my BS alert tab.

Nothing against the OP, but all we`ve seen is the typical Cashmere tag and lining.

I'm not saying the OP is a liar...OK I am, I just don't know what the OP is lying about and why.


Good god you people are difficult. Do you really think that I am trying to pull some scam by taking pictures of a fake Kiton jacket just to besmirch their reputation in the internet clothing world?

Some people are immune to evidence.

Kiton is obviously worth its market price and your willingness to question it shows your evil motivations. Ergo, you must be lying.

I'll take 500 of whatever you're selling, please.

Some people still believe that Darren Beaman's computer crashed and wiped out his hard drive seven times in 2005, that Carson35 bought a terrible smoking jacket just to discredit Darren, and that Darren will deliver for all his customers any day now.

Your obvious animus toward poor Mr. Beaman raises questions, but I don't want to list them here, because J wouldn't like it.

I'm surprised some are doubting that was a real Kiton sportcoat. It looked real to me. I think it is a valid question whether the pictures show all of the handwork items in the jacket.

I found some information out and update my thread on Kiton for those of you interested.

...and that Carlo Franco is working with Audrey really hard to deliver all the ties and shirts that were already paid for. They've been real busy with the move, but....

Would you pretty, pretty please list one potential area where a lot of time-consuming handwork is hiding?

I imagine The Truth could then take a photo of that area to discredit another theory.

No. I just thought that considering the direction this thread was going, I would ask for clarification on the label. That`s all.
