KNOW THE DIFFERENCE
Original vs Fake — What’s the Difference?
Authenticity is not about one detail. Look at branding, labels, stitching,
construction and overall finishing together before making a decision.
ORIGINAL
- Consistent branding and logo details
- Clean labels and product information
- Consistent stitching and construction
- Overall finishing matches the product
FAKE / RED FLAGS
- Inconsistent branding or logo details
- Poor printing, embroidery or label quality
- Uneven stitching or unusual construction
- Finishing that looks inconsistent with the product
Important: One detail alone does not prove a product is fake.
WHAT TO CHECK
Look Beyond the Logo
A logo or tag alone is not enough. Check a few simple details together to get a
better understanding of the product.
Branding & Logo
Check the logo, font, placement and overall branding. Look for consistent printing or embroidery and correct positioning.
Labels & Tags
Check the label quality, printing, spelling, stitching and available product information. Missing or cut tags can happen with surplus.
Stitching & Finishing
Check seams, stitching, loose threads and overall finishing. Uneven or poor construction can be a red flag.
Fabric & Construction
Look at the fabric, construction and overall feel of the garment. The material and build should make sense for the product.
Product Details
Compare product photos, measurements, labels and the information provided on the product page. Look for obvious inconsistencies.
Remember: No single detail can prove a product is original or fake. Look at the
complete product before making a decision.
