      exactly,most people don't realize this. there are a lot of other reason as to why they do not make and exact copy. one of them is to cut cost . besides if they make and exact copy they won't be selling it as copy . they might as well sell it as original.

    The double stitch on the neckline, the upside down size indicator and the wrong bar-codes aren't really the best way to spot a counterfeit product. The quality of the fabric is your best bet.
    Example: If LV uses Egyptian cotton on their bedding. You can fake everything else but you can't fake pure cotton. Back to the t-shirt, the fabric hand feel is another indicator. If you stretch the neckline and the recovery is poor. That will also be a good indicator of an inferior product. He also spoke about the original being more see through, that's not correct because green allows more light to pass through as opposed to black which absorbs light.

      Just don't buy form Chi__ na anymore. 99.9% are fake form that coun_try. To tell you my experience they are so tricky, some of the suppliers even cut part of the tag and sell it lower saying the clothes is defective or extra production from the factory like they are giving you awesome stuffs. I received some Balmain clothing from my supplier is even better than what it looks like here it is very difficult to tell that is fake from them they called that grade A republica. The sample on this video is one of those low grade republica. How shameful you know the chi__nese writing there even means "strictly passed professional test, safe to buy" something like that. Very immoral :/

      Just simple writing like this maybe £150 or $200 but one with symbols and more decor I call it probably £250-300 or $350-400.
      Basically the more things on it more work is put into it but I tell you it does look so fucking good, most things won’t have the type of symbols or decor on any tops but is pure genuine quality, you can feel it when you wear it it’s perfect.

      The original see these things to a T as people call it, the eyes are meant to see balance that equals quality, so it will be perfectly on the chest not to wide and not to narrow whatever the size they have done their measurements, your not paying £150 for nothing or sometimes £250-300 for a more decor stitched Balmein top.
