Can someone tell if this jacket is original or fake? Seems pretty legit to me
It has the tag that implies it's new i think idk

Hi @AlfajorDeMaicena! For better answers, include:
- Reference pictures
- Budget in numbers
- Specific measurements
- Openness to buying secondhand and/or online
- Location: country/continent is fine
- Timing/urgency
I don't know how legit dupes look like
Looks good
damn they fake carhartt?
Only thing that makes me pause is the misspelling in the tag: "Excluve of" instead of "Exclusive of". I glanced around and didn't see that misspelling on any other vintage Carhartt except this one (which coincidentally is exactly like your jacket here, and is also in 'mint' condition but without tags): https://www.ebay.com/itm/388840468567?

Overall great fade but in "Mint" condition, which is rare, especially in this size.
I don’t know how much new carhartt is getting faked since it’s the vintage stuff that’s getting marked up like crazy
But honestly if you’re that worried about just go to carhartt dot com and buy one there
Oh, I do believe that the bottom of the tag should say "Med / Moy / Med," not "Med / Pet / Peq"
Oh yeah
You'll notice the tag on the jacket I linked you to above says "L/P/P" and yours says "M/P/P"
Where are you finding these listings dawg
eBay and also I need a life

Great condition overall, only selling because I have two of them.
No not you
oh lol
So.. in conclusion based on the tag alond we can say that…
I'm going fake
How much is this jacket being sold for
Convert to dollars around 200ish
Probably little less
cant you just buy dirext from carhartt at that money
Not in my country xd
Woof
Taxes plus shipping are so expensive
If you're not in the US and don't have tariffs to worry about I'd just buy the Red Tornado one off Aliexpress
Gonna check that out
Also gonna ask the seller to send some better quality picks from the tag
Anything else i should get to know when asking for picks looking for legitness?
Honestly the carhartt subreddit is probably a better resource for lc-ing this stuff
There’s dudes there with insane knowledge
Ok i got you now i see it
Fake
It looked so good 😪
To be true
So…this one?
Also has this sort emblem idk
That’s probably legit
It’s pretty common to find carhartts that people had custom logos printed/embroidered onto
The wear on that tag alone makes me think it’s real
So next time i'd want to buy one what things should i consider before exactly? Tags logos etc
Ngl bunch of scammer on marketplace 😅
Just consider the age of the piece that you’re purchasing and think about whether the wear on the piece lines up with that
Also full tag shots are always good
If something says it’s vintage and the tag is in pristine condition that’s a red flag
Yeah pretty much, but for tags for ex: the bottom of the tag "Med / Moy / Med," not "Med / Pet / Peq" those sort o things and obs the "excuelve"
may depend on the particular age of the item
i mean usually a dead giveaway is a spelling error
any misspellings is a red flag
Tnx guys nearly got scammed
ive had a pair with this emblem also
its a program for getting veterans into work i think
