Hello, new to the forum, but I was hoping you could help me with verifying some ties I purchased from a thrift store. I'm new to buying ties and I don't want to unknowingly sell anything that might be fake. Thank you in advance for you help!

those are all real. Not to rain on your parade but don’t get your hopes too high. Tie sales have plummeted super hard recently.

Thank you for your help Main, I appreciate it very much. The value may not be as good as it once was, but I'm just getting into picking up used clothing so my expectations are tempered. Learning to tell the differences between real and fake though will be invaluable for me, I'm very glad my searches led me to this forum!

Thoughts on this one guys? Struggling to see why anyone would bother faking an Aquascutum suit but you never know. To my untrained eye it looks OK

Bought these Gucci jeans/pants recently. Unsure if authentic or not. All tips would be appreciated!

I got a question. Maybe you could help me as denim-experts?

I want to try old styles of TRUE RELIGION, so I'm trying to buy some of their jeans.
I bought one (photos in attachment) but I dont't know if they are real or fake. I got another pair from outlet shop and this model had different tags.

I send tags in attachment. They have description on tag "leather rivets" - which is strange, because jeans hasn't any leather elements...

Could you help me? Are these real?

Thanks in advance
Sorry for my English ;)

got this for like 80 cents and I'm not sure about it. The tag is different than my current RRL clothes. Also, it's made out of rayon, and its waaaaaay too big for a large. One the other hand, the buttons are wooden, which for some reason makes it seem more legit.
