How to Spot Fake Branded Clothes?
Labels, seams and materials can offer clues about a branded product, but no single visual detail proves authenticity. This guide collects things to examine and encourages checking the maker, seller and provenance alongside the item itself.
Lacoste Polo Shirts

- The Lacoste crocodile should be very detailed. You should be able to see its eyes, teeth, feet, and red jaws. The body of the crocodile should be bright green and its tail should be placed parallel to its back.
- At the back of the polo collar (inside the shirt), there should be a white tag with the logo and a red number that indicates the size. On the models for men, the size is indicated with one number and there should be 2 numbers on women’s models.
- Tiny details can reveal a fake Lacoste polo. For original Lacoste clothing, the manufacturer uses mother-of-pearl buttons with 2 holes without any inscriptions. Replica manufacturers often forget about this and use 4-hole buttons.
- There are small cuts that are approximately 0.4 inches deep at the bottom of men’s polo shirts. Women’s models don’t have any cuts.
