Ermenegildo Zegna help needed

[QuelleSurpriseVtg]

This is a really odd tie. It's fuzzy wool that reminds me of an outdoor carpet from Home Depot. There's no Zegna label, only the embossed name on the underside. There is a label that says "Made in Italy for Louis International". That name brings up a temp agency in the Philippines that's been around for about twenty years, a newer California electronics company, and an international patent office in Taipei that's been around since the 1970s. I'd guess it was made for the last one but I can't find any link between the two companies anywhere. Does anyone have an age estimate on this tie? Thank you!

PS..."Ermenegildo" is misspelled on the Label Resource page.

How should it be spelt? It's currently "Ermenegildo" - that's right isn't it?

Zegna are primarily textile producers so it may be that your tie is made of Zegna fabric but isn't necessarily a Zegna tie. Without the label, it's hard to be sure. Your tie looks 1970s to me.

Thank you for your reply! I assumed it was a Zegna tie because of the embossed name on the back side of the tie.

I guess someone corrected the spelling. It was spelled "Ermenegilde" when I first looked.
