Clothing & Streetwear Authentication

Hoodies, tees and jackets are among the most faked items on the resale market — modern replicas look right on the shelf but give themselves away in the cut, the print and the tags. Our experts and AI read your piece from photos, from the font on the label to the weight of the fabric, and return a clear verdict.

What we check

Tags & size labels

We compare fonts, kerning, RN/CA numbers and the 'Made in' line against the correct season. Fakes drift on letterforms and list fibre content in a format the real country never uses.

Stitching evenness

We read stitch pitch, thread tension and how interior seams are finished. Wandering seams, loose threads and mismatched allowances almost always mean a copy.

Print & graphic sharpness

Genuine screen-print or DTG has clean edges and solid fill. Replicas show halftone dots, ink halos and blurred fine detail under magnification.

Fabric weight & hand-feel

We judge gsm, weave and how the cloth drapes in your photos. Thin, washed-out cotton in place of a heavy loopback is a classic cost-cut tell.

Hardware & zippers

We inspect zipper engraving (YKK, riri), pulls, snaps and eyelets. A blank slider or the wrong maker's mark is a textbook replica giveaway.

Signs of a replica

  • Label font drifts — uneven stroke weight or wrong kerning
  • Wavy seams, loose threads or side allowances that don't line up
  • Halftone dots, ink halos or soft edges on the print
  • Blank zipper pull or the wrong maker (no YKK where there should be)
  • Thin, washed-out fabric with a plasticky sheen instead of real weight

Frequently asked

Can you authenticate clothing from photos alone?

Yes. With sharp shots of the tags, interior seams, a close-up of the print and the hardware, an expert can read every key authenticity marker.

How long does a verdict take?

Usually ~15 minutes to a few hours, depending on queue and how tricky the piece is. We message you the moment it's assessed.

What do I get with an authentic result?

A free digital QR certificate — you can show it to a buyer when reselling as independent proof the item is genuine.

Which photos should I send?

A full view, sewn-in and size tags, the wash/care label, a macro of the print and the hardware. The sharper the shots, the more precise the verdict.
