Hi all,
I found this great forum while researching how to identify real vs fake Burberry trench coats.
As there are SO many labels and tags from different decades I am still unsure and need your help!
I bough a trench second hand and it’s supposed to be 100% original (of course), although a receipt did not exist.
On the first glance the coat looks good but at home I looked at some details which make me doubt.
For example: the lining of the arms is made out of really cheap polyester. The lining of the pockets is just canvas/cotton and feels rough. The label inside the pocket looks strange. The tag inside the coat is on the right side not on the left (I believe 99% of jackets have it on the left side). Inside the pockets, you can clearly see material cut offs (see detail pic) and they are just not sawn nicely.
Is there any expert in this forum who can give me some advice? I just don’t know how to proceed, if I should report this person as selling fakes is illegal? And I don’t want to resell a fake coat myself! Thank you!!
