Guys,

Please help. I bought this Loro Piana on E-bay, for 349 usd. But the quality of cashmere feels a bit on the low end for being Loro Piana. Could you please help? Any signs of fake that you recognize and does anyone know whether I could check with their store?

Best

The finest cashmere isn't always super soft. The better tell is if the fabric pills. Just glancing at the pictures and based on the fact that it has a correct looking tag (an effort few copy cats go to) it looks legit. Check the tag though for obvious tells such as logo appearing different to the official logo on the website or spelling errors).
