Features of Calvin Klein branded clothing: how not to buy a fake
The devil is in the details!
First of all, it is worth paying attention to the little things, because most manufacturers of fakes do not attach importance to them. Many buyers do not know about all the intricacies of making a product, and therefore will not be able to distinguish a high-quality copy from the original.
So, when purchasing products from an elite brand, you need to take a closer look at the following elements:
- There are always two labels on the original clothes of the fashion house in question. Both of them are located on the inside of the product. The manufacturer's name is written on the large emblem. The size is indicated on the small tag sewn onto it.

- There must be a removable tag. Moreover, a unique serial number is always imprinted on it. In addition to it, there are numbers of a specific product, style and color. Even the presence of all these protective functions does not guarantee the originality of the product. That is why the manufacturers decided to equip the removable tag with another important detail - a hologram with the inscription “Calvin Klein”. This is precisely the image that counterfeit manufacturers most often do not make.

- Another tag is sewn to the inside of the product; a unique serial code and other indicators are engraved on it, just like on the removable analogue.
