Tips to Spotting Counterfeit 101:
Authentic Abercrombie
zippers are ALWAYS on the right side of the jacket. You will almost
always find that most cheap counterfeit Abercrombie and Fitch will have
zippers on the left side of the jacket. Which side is which? When you
look down the zipper should be to your right and should be in your
right hand. If not, your jacket is 100% Counterfeit Abercrombie and
Fitch
Abercrombie & Fitch's quality of products is extremely
good. Find your product with tons of loose strings, miss stiches or
general slopiness around the lines. That is a large tall tail sign that
you have Counterfeit Abercrombie. Generally, sellers who know what they
are doing will spend the extra time to trim all these loose strings.
Please refer to the other tips to spotting Conterfeit Abercrombie if
that is the case.
Abercrombie & Fitch does never come in a
plastic bag when purchased at the store. Authentic Abercrombie when
ordered online from abercrombie.com, will have a plastic bag however
with the Abercrombie Logo on it as well. If you receive any Abercrombie
with just a plastic packaging bag with no logos. That is another tall
tail sign that you have Counterfeit Abercrombie.
Abercrombie
& Fitch will rarely have stains on its products. If they do they
are often taken off the shelves and not resold. If you receive a jacket
that is claimed to be brand new, but has a white stain or similar on it
when it is a darker color. That is a small but most likely another
indicator that you have Counterfeit Abercrombie.
Abercrombie
& Fitch does not distribute its spring lines, summer lines, fall
lines and winter lines ahead of schedule. If you find yourself buying a
next season peice of clothing that is not available on the Abercrombie

& Fitch may have a lot of destroyed or vintage products; however

straight, loose, missed stiched or otherwise not normal. That is
probably because you have Counterfeit Abercrombie.

& Fitch does not wholesale, resale, , liquidate, close-out, or
distribute any of its name brand clothing to anyone other than their

resale agent or anything similiar is 100% b.s. If any seller claims
this, that is because you are going to deal with Counterfeit
Abercrombie.

making thick and rugid clothing. They were started based of the fact
that there clothes were for hunters and fishers. That still stands
today, their final product is typically very thick, durable and it is
that way for a reason. Find yourself with a very thin, cheap material?

Abercrombie.

clothes to size, if you have ever bought a small, a medium, or large
that size with will run standard. If you buy a small, medium or large
from an online reseller claiming to be authentic and it does not fit.

mini, chances are you have purchased Counterfeit Abercrombie.
