Guide to spot a fake fredperry:
http://reviews.ebay.co.uk/4-steps-to-spot-a-fake-Fred-Perry-Polo-Shirt_W0QQugidZ10000000006671178

Additional info: Laurel logo on neck tag should be embroiled above FRE.

Retrosport's laurel logo on neck tag is in the middle, so its 99% fake

Haha, thats a typical newbie reply, FP has been producing clothing for 50 years, there will def be changes over so many decades, the link you have provided is only meant for modern FP stuff...

Rahman is laff-in out loud!

 

[Ki33ran]

wow the blue label looks so real

 

[Rahman]

The labels are not the same, bro. In the 100 anniversary edition magazine, they showed the different labels through the decades.

tags of some vintage polos, taken from the centenary book.

For your reference

same point where the vintages from 80s or probably 90s wont have that watermark on the wash label, which the current batches have.

A totally wrong statement, and unfair accusation.
I feel the need to give the the justice.

Below is the polo tees i bought from fredperry.com from the last sale

MIJ, MIP, MIE


and to further support this, here is the official magazine by Fred Perry themself

I also read the ebay reviews again to be sure. However, there is no mention abt fakes having the laurel in the centre.

For those who wish to learn more, can buy the Fred Perry magazine to see the labels. Online information is really just hear from individuals only, best to get the information directly from the manufacterer.


Btw, the reason why i posted the above details is not to blast or offend anyone. But more to share knowledge with forum ppl so that we wont get con to be safe.

cheers

actually their cuttings are more catered towards the asians in smaller builds, more slim ard the arms and waist too.

For your case, probably u like to give MIE a try.
