I am curious as to whether this jacket is authentic? I am unsure about the label being so close to the Christian Dior label.

Hello, need your help to identify if the JL monk shoes are fake or genuine. Golden buckles confuse me. Thank you in advance!

I vote fake. My understanding is that the blue label merchandise uses "Burberry" not "Burberrys" or "Burberry's". Not sure the blue label plate and dark blue Burberry of London tag should be found on the same garment. The blue label merchandise uses a bright blue color. Also the pattern matching and stitching (of the label) are sloppy.

I just found this jacket today and from my limited knowledge of designer wear and fakes it seems pretty legit but I know fakes can be impressively good these days. Would really appreciate any help if you can identify its authenticity. Thanks in advance!!!!

too many inconsistencies to call it genuine. The size tag (the white one) seems haphazardly sewn as though it were taken from a genuine item and reapplied. The plaid Pattern is not Burberry and the buttons are not branded.

also, I’ve never seen “Burberry’s” embroidered under the collar like that. Say what you want about Burberry what their outerwear usually have some thought behind it. This does not.

I’d pass.

I disagree. Looks real to me. From a vintage sports line I believe. Burberrys did plenty of different plaids and embroidery back in the day.

Looking to purchase this RL Purple Label. I need your help to check. The “Ralph Lauren” doesn’t seem to be centered. And the inside tag isn’t purple. I don’t really have any experience with RLPL. Thank you.

Hi guys! Was wondering if this is real or not. They said all the good materials come from turkey.
