the washtag?

a few pages ago, there was mention abt having faint markings of the FP logo on the washtag. So far all the current purchases from fredperry.com has that

I think currently those fake FPs in SG are not difficult to tell. The give away is usually the laurel. Fake laurels are usually very rounded and the leaves are not cleanly separated from each other.

Another point I noticed about some fake FPs is that they have a side vent and/or extended tail. This I cannot confirm but all my FPs do not have a side vent or extended tail. Probably a point for fellow forumers to confirm.

As mentioned above, the wash tag can also be used to differentiate. Although not quite possible just by looking.

I didn't have any noticeable shrinkage of my FPs. All 8 of them didn't display any signs of shrinkage after the first wash. And my maid handwashes them.

Refer to below quotes...

bro, so all FP polo tee shouldnt have this "split" at the end???
Even the vintage pcs too???

Spilt = Vented

Even vented hem = For some FP

Even hem = For most FP

Uneven vented hem = For RL

 

[Rahman]

huh?

My MIC short sleeve checkerd shirt hab the watermark.
My MIP long sleeve shirt hab the watermark.
My MIC tee hab the watermark.

^ Thanks to Rahman's image.



Thatz why i conclude tis is the best way to differentiate authenic or replica.


you have to tilt an angle to see the watermark.

 

[arcturuz]

oh watermark is inside the label one
no wonder i keep beo my fps, neh see any watermark

 

[kazuki666]

anyway, just curious.

what are the chances the chinese "reverse engineers" will just print these watermarks so that they can imitate till 99% "real" sia...

 

[phategunner]

Not all shirts have the security mark.

My MIP and MIJ F11xx do not have them.

Probably pretty soon. Doesn't cost much to do it anyway.

yours issit the current batches 2009-2010?
i realised all those FPs i bought within that year period hab it.

 

[phategunner]

Not sure if it's current batch.

Guys, i just received my first batch of M3600 and it fit me perfectly, hence trying to order another batch of M120.

May i know if M3600 and M120 have the same size cutting?

I am wearing a M for M3600.

The fitting of MIJ FP M120 polos are more inclined towards asians who are generally smaller build than our european counterparts. Therefore, expect M120 polos to have a smaller chest measurement as well as a shorter length when compared to M3600 of the same size even though M3600 is of slim-fit.

In simple term, M120 polos can be consider slim-fit of M3600 polos in my opinion.

 

[kazuki666]

btw, i notice something abt MIE M12 sleeves when ironing them last night.

the sleeves are more "curved" making them hard to iron. Then the MIJ M120 doesnt have this "problem"...

Oh.. thank you for the advise

well for me

M3600 as compared to M120 is slightly wider at chest level, has a bigger neck size collar but tighter from chest down.

The reverse is true for M120, tighter collar, tighter chest but loser below

I think this is cute.

Other than sales items, look out for new arrivals as well, they are the sales-items-to-be
