The world cup polo (MIE) cutting is equivalent to the 100th year anniversary polo (MIE), and the material is similar to the M12 polo (MIE), which is thinner than any MIC and MIJ polo.

MIJ ones still the best ... for the design & fit.

Hi,

I gather from posts around hardwarezone that you are somewhat an expert on spotting fake fred perrys. Because of this, i hope you will be able to answer some of my questions.

Firstly, i did a google search on fred perry polos, and came up with several results, one interesting one being a discussion on the fred perry official thread. There, in pages 30+, are discussions on MIP fred perrys that were flooding the hwz market. Correct me if im wrong but u were lambasting those people about those fred perrys, even giving proof that they are fake. Notably, u brought up the issue of the threading on the FP tag(about the colours supposing to be navy blue rather than matching colour of the T-shirt)

However another search brought me to a post by a hwz member, FrEaKZz, who as i can see, posted the EXACT same items. same MIP. same pricing. same thread problem. But this time i saw u supporting his thread and endorsing its authenticity. May i know the reason for this? Curious thing is, all FP threads selling MIP polos, incl this which u "endorsed", were locked by admin.

This pm may seem offensive, but they are merely honest questions by me, a humble "not an expert on designer clothings". The reason i ask these is, as u can already gather, i have stumbled upon the same stocks of goods, and they seem genuine and also come with supposed letters of authenticity. Due to the relatively cheaper pricing, i was interested to bring in stocks, mainly for personal use, and for friends and family. But my research has thrust upon me a brickwall of sorts, and i am unsure of how to go on from here. I therefore humbly request ur expertise in this area to advice me on this matter.

In a nutshell, are these FPs fake or real?

Thanks a million!

Sharing below info and pictures with all~

Made in Portugal [MIP] M1200 series

Take note of the size label threading colors

According to Fred Perry's Ecommerce Manager reply:

According to Fred Perry's Nottingham Store Manager reply, the thread color should match the size label color which is navy

In other words, any M1200 MIP even if BNWT = either authentic dead stocks or AAA-grade replica. Buy at your own risk. In my opinion, even if its authentic but going at S$90/pc I would rather spent abit more to buy from official site where you get 100% genuine new stuff. If they're M1200 MIC, $90/pc seems to be a good deal provided got XS/S since most of us aim for these sizes.

Any idea where to try MIJ twin tipped polos? Something like this: http://www.fredperry.com/limited-edition/men/shirts/japanese-twin-tipped-shirt.html

Went to cineleisure today, couldn't find any of the MIJ polos.

19 or 20 inch across chest very BIG leh ..
around 17, 17.5 or 18 inch is the best if want it to be fitting for XS or S.
