Hi everyone,

I recently picked up a Schott Perfecto 618 and was hoping to get a second opinion on its authenticity. It has the main “Made in USA” label and a white pocket tag with size and production info, but there’s no “Crafted with Pride in USA” flag tag inside.

From what I’ve read, that tag might not appear on all newer models — but just to be sure, I’d really appreciate any feedback from those more experienced.

Photos below — thanks in advance for your help!

I'm not sure what you think is missing here.

Obviously whoever made that jacket was going through the motions. Once they finished it, they didn't even recognize what they made anymore. They took a long look at their pile of "Crafted with Pride in USA" tags and sighed... not today.

Honestly, the Perfecto label and Lot/Bndl tag should be enough. I'm not sure how consistently they even use that other tag.

It is authentic but are you honestly so unimpressed with the quality of the jacket that you have to question its authenticity?
