Fake or Real (Authentic, Genuine, etc.) -- Official Authentication Thread

[bs300]

Thom Browne back of tag has SML on it. Fake? or do some authentic items (maybe from older years) have this?



Also, on the Thom Browne crewneck sweater, should the stripes have a smooth or sticky texture to them?



This is my first item I purchased from Grailed from a "reputable" seller but I have my suspicions since I never seen the SML on any of my real items. So I want to be 100% sure before I file a claim.

From browsing this thread, I hope @Shirtmaven can chime in.

Thanks

Hello everyone. I've been lurking here on forum but this is my first post here.
I found this merino Kenzo zip sweater it feels quality and nicely made but something feels off to me. What do you guys think? Fake or Fortune?
Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

Currently looking into buying some Isaia clothing, while searching I stumbled upon a suit with a logo I have not seen before but it might be an older version. Has anyone seen it before and is it really from Isaia? If so, what year is it from?

I don't know the year but that's a legit very old logo

Thanks for your reply Florent! I’m surprised the suit in question is in impeccable condition considering the logo is very old then. But thanks! That answers my question

Fake or real Yves Saint Laurent leather trousers? Second hand, side-zipper and velvet details downwards from pockets. The tag is missing. Feels very sturdy. If you have any information, if these are real deal, on the model, please share! I'm very grateful for your help, thanks!

fake or real? Orazio luciano blazer. It seems kind of low quality if you ask me.

I have limited experience with Orazio but looks real and older to me. I would be surprised if their tailoring was faked. Just not enough name recognition. Someone here will confirm I am sure.

Ok thanks for your reply, I’ll wait and see what someone with extended experience has to say

Older model, needs a good pressing. But it is real. 99% of people do not know this name, so I would be extremely surprised if someone faked it. Also, a close up of the lapel buttonhole would help, but from the first pic it seems to be exactly the style you would expect from Orazio.

Great thanks, I’ll send a picture from the lapel buttonhole when I get back home

Got the pictures here from the lapel button hole.

It's real, that buttonhole is beautifully stitched

Is this a real Ralph Lauren black label?
