People who choose clothes exclusively brand names are many. But those mods who can not afford to dress in clothes from world couturiers even more. And then the majority goes on a compromise, acquiring obvious fakes, which are several times cheaper or choosing successful copies of well-known brands.
But not everything is as simple as it seems. Sometimes, buying a branded thing, we experience joy and are willing to spend a large amount of money, hoping to get a high-quality product from a worldwide manufacturer (which has an excellent reputation). Also what turns out? We are trying again to shove a fake! But then how to distinguish a brand from a fake in clothes?
Some well-known brands are trying their best to protect their products from fakes as much as possible, so they constantly improve product protection by introducing various innovations, for example, a hologram and other means of protection. However, high quality products are the main protection, because not everyone can repeat production of fake clothes, of course, there are exceptions.
Manufacturers of original footwear and clothing constantly have to sue with the firms producing counterfeit clothing, but some manufacturers instead of Burberry write Burbery, then to prove their case is much more difficult. Therefore, when buying clothes, be careful and if Abidas is written (and so on), then do not buy this thing, for sure a fake. Today everything is faked from clothes to accessories and toilet water.
Basically fake comes from China, Indonesia, Turkey and other countries of Eastern Europe and East Asia. However, this does not mean at all that the country directly points to a forgery, because the majority of producers transfer their production there because of low taxes and cheap labor. All this in the end result makes the production of shoes and clothes cheaper.
In Russia, about 30 percent of branded clothing is fake (according to the Department for Combating Corruption of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Economic Security).
Is it possible to distinguish a brand from a fake? To understand this, several tips will help, and if you follow them, you can easily distinguish a fake from the original.
Where to buy branded clothes
In all major cities, there is a large number of specialized branded stores that sell products exclusively of a specific brand. In such stores, the likelihood of buying a low-forgery counterfeit is reduced to zero, because the reputation of the store may suffer from this.
Today, online auctions have gained popularity, but it's impossible to buy branded things there, but it's quite possible to stumble on a base forgery. Exceptions are only sites of specific firms, which have information about sales, the availability of stores in the city where you live. On the same sites you can buy branded products online.
It is worth paying attention to the cost
The price of some branded bags can cost about 5000-7000 dollars. If a similar bag costs less than 2-3 times, then you run the risk of spending $ 2,000 per copy. To buy branded things and at the same time to save, of course, you can, for this you just need to keep an eye on sales. Usually well-known brands of sales are arranged at the end of the season and discounts sometimes reach 80 percent. This is the only way to save money without losing quality.
Carefully inspect the thing
It is recommended to inspect a carefully selected item, even if you buy a thing in a fashionable boutique. If you find uneven stitches, sticking threads, crawling loops, cracks on the surface of the skin should lead you to the idea that in your hands a fake is possible.
Pay attention to the label, manufacturers of branded things do not save on them, so there you will find a piece of skin, advice on care, a few spare buttons. Cheap fakes in clothes do not have detailed instructions and are provided with standard labels, on which everything is written in broken Russian or in general an incomprehensible description.
