SW&D FAKE OR REAL (AUTHENTIC, GENUINE, ETC.) -- OFFICIAL AUTHENTICATION THREAD

[gfb96]

So I bought this Givenchy doberman bomber off ebay and it arrived in the mail yesterday. However, I saw that it had no tags anywhere (below collar, zippers, nothing). Nothing that would indicate that it is Givenchy. This is pretty worrisome to me. It has a tag from "Holt Renfrew" which seems to be a Canadian retailer. Anyone have any extra info on these or any advice? I spent a lot on this, something you would expect to pay for an authentic item.

I spotted this Valetino Jeans sweatshirt in a vintage shop. I think it's from 80-90s, and I can't seem to find it anywhere online. Can anyone tell?

I'm trying to buy a pair of yohji Yamamoto trousers from rakuten (the ragtag shop) but I need to know if they're genuine or a fake. I'm not sure why the tag is throwing me off a little I'm a tad suspicious. Thanks. http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/ragtag/item/r2101405388682/

Moved your post to our dedicated authentication thread. I don't know the answer, but hopefully someone will chime in. Welcome to the forum.

Just ran across this thread. I know it's late but I will confirm that this is definitely a fake, and an obvious one to me. I consider myself to be an expert on the details of this brand and several things stand out.

The cartoon is far too bright
The lettering on the logo is just plain sloppy
The material is cheap looking, nothing like Moncler's nylon
The lettering on the brand label is too small in relation to the size of the label and the font is wrong
The emblem on the zipper pull should be be embossed.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me legit check this Dior denim jacket. The seller is claiming its from the S/S03 collection. I was doing some googling on fake Dior and everything seemed to check out EXCEPT the washing instructions tag (the 3rd pic) looked a little suspicious. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Hello! I have been lurking on this site for far too long. Therefore, I am finally joining it with hopes that someone might share his/her opinion about the originality of this jacket. I received it as a gift. But now I am wandering is it a real-real thing? I know there are some mind-blowing fake jackets. Even people who know about Belstaff products are unable to recognize some of the fake ‘masterworks’. So, can anyone of you help me ‘falsify’ originality of this jacket?
My reasons for concern are:
- Snips have clear uppers, and have Belstaff–Belstaff engraving only on the rear side,
- There are tags but no barcode (although it was a gift), and they are attached to the zipper slider,
- The jacket does not feature corduroy inside part of the collar.
Perhaps these characteristics cannot prove anything with certainty. This particular jacket certainly looks neatly done and does not have any shaky parts or messy stitching. It does have the label under the pocket flap, the badge and it is ‘made in Italy’. Maybe some of the more experienced members could share their opinions on this matter. I would really appreciate your help!
