What we check
Compass badge stitching
We check the compass badge stitching and the refractive thread. Genuine badges have precise, even stitching, while fakes often look uneven or use the wrong thread.
Detachable-badge button
We verify the detachable-badge button and how the badge attaches. A wrong button or an incorrect attachment system is a clear red flag.
Garment-dye fabric
We assess the garment-dyed fabric feel and finish. The characteristic hand and tonal dyeing are difficult for replicas to reproduce.
Tags and buttons
We compare the tags, fonts, layout and buttons against genuine references for the specific garment.
Stitching quality
Authentic pieces have clean, even stitching throughout. We look at seams and finishing for sloppy work.
Signs of a replica
- ✕Off or uneven compass badge stitching
- ✕Wrong detachable-badge button
- ✕Badge that attaches the wrong way
- ✕Fabric feel or dye finish that is off
