Authentic True Religion Jeans! How To Know The Difference Between The Real Deal And Fakes!
true religion jeans for women
UHello everyone! Are you a big fan of designer denim? Have you always wanted a pair of True Religion jeans, but don’t live near a store that sells them? Well there is always the option of buying them online, which is very convenient for just about everybody! The only problem that arises with buying online is- “Are they authentic? How do you tell? How do you know you are not getting ripped off?” Well in this article, I will discuss a few ways that YOU yourself can learn to spot the REAL DEAL versus the FAKES! Ready?
First off, you must know that True Religion jeans are very, VERY expensive. There are the regular stitched True Religion jeans, the BIG T stitched (with thicker stitching), and the SUPER T stitched (with super thick stitching). The Super T’s are the most expensive, around $319 per pair. Your first clue to whether or not the jeans you want are safe to buy is: PRICE. If they are too cheap, then chances are they are FAKE. However, this is not always the case. I have seen countless fakes being sold at very high prices. So look out! Pay attention to details!!
Details such as the stitching, shape of the horseshoes, inner pattern on the pockets, rivets, placement of the back logo patch, inseam length, material, inner tags, and even the belt loops are all ways to tell the difference between a REAL pair and a FAKE pair. I will cover each one of these for you.
1. Stitching: Real True Religion jeans have stitching throughout the jeans that is comparable to regular thread. It is very clean, even, and without flaws, such as running out of the lines or being stitched on top of. It is very professionally done, and doesn’t look like a two year old tried to sew them. Fake pairs tend have have stitching that looks more like yarn, and gets fuzzy looking. It is often sloppy, with a lot of mistakes.
2. Horseshoe shape: The back horseshoes on the pockets should be evenly places inside of the back pockets. This is a huge clue, as MANY and MOST fakes cannot get this right. Authentic True Religion jeans have horseshoes that are centered evenly from the top to bottom, and left to right. They are not narrow in shape.
3. Inner pockets: True Religion jeans have small red Buddhas on the inner pocket lining. They are small, evenly spaced, and red. FAKE pairs have larger Buddhas are often very faded (or barely there), maroon in color, and the pocket material looks tan, not white. The pocket material should be white, with smaller red buddhas.
4. Rivets: The rivets near the front coin pockets are made out of a metal-like material. They are never plastic, which is commonly seen on fakes.
5. Placement of back True Religion logo patch: The back patch on authentic True Religion jeans is on the right hand side, all the way over to the right. It is commonly seen on fakes that the patch is more centered in the middle of the right hand side, which is a dead giveaway. Also, one must take note that the way the stitching around this label is done is VERY important. The back label should have red, EVEN stitching that is VERY neatly done around the entire patch. Fakes have stitching that is all over the place, and is over over-stitched in certain areas, or looks like the patch is about the fall off. Please note that many authentic True Religion patches are brown leather, as well as the red and white.
6. Inseam length: If you are buying a pair of brand new true Religion jeans, you are going to have a VERY long inseam length to start with. The inseam is usually at least 33″ long, and can be as long as 36″ on some pairs. If your pair is brand new, and the inseam is only 32″ or less, then be aware that these may be fakes. Some older styles of True Religion jeans did actually have a shorter inseam around 32″, but it is not very common anynore. Most fakes have s shorter inseam of about 32″ or 32.5″. Please also note that if you are buying a preowned/ used pair, the first owner may have had them hemmed, so please ask them before assuming they are fakes if they have a shorter inseam.
7. Material: The two most commonly used fabric types in True Religion jeans are 100% cotton (also known as RIGID) or 99% cotton 1% elastin (stretch). True Religion NEVER EVER uses Polyurethane in their blends, so if you see it, keep going- they are fake!
8. Inner tags: There are three inner tags, the one on top has a red Buddha that states the size, and says MADE IN USA. (The jeans are NEVER made in China!) On ther reverse of this tag is the material content, care instructions, RN and CA#’s on top. Then there is a cloth tag, that is smaller in side with a red horseshoe and strip across the bottom. On the reverse side of this tag is a serial code. Then last a paper tag underneath with style numbers (newer pairs even have the style name), PO numbers, CA, and RN numbers. Note that often times, the FAKE tags are slippery feeling, or waxy. They are often a brown tone as well, and are not white as they should be.
9. Belt loops: Fake True Religion jeans have VERY slanted side belt loops, almost crooked looking, like they are going sideways. They should NOT look like this!
how to choosing Christmas Apparel
christmas dress
As Christmas approaches you will notice that there is a significant drop in the temperature, giving a nice chill to the blowing wind. With winter fast approaching, all of those khaki shorts and summer shirts should by stored neatly in your closet. You should also start unfurling your winter wardrobe. But then it hits you: there is a big rip in your old winter coat that you actually forgot about, and fixing it will need a lot of money. Here is a quick guide on how to shop for a new winter coat.
See what others are wearing. Research on the latest trends for this coming winter. Seasonal trends are short-lived, so if you will be spending a lot of money, you had better make sure that you are going to buy a winter coat that will look classy. Browsing different shops and checking online will allow you to pick the right winter coat.
Length and shape: two very vital ingredients in choosing the right style. In picking the right style, you need to know how tall you are. You will also need to familiarize yourself with your body shape, and your own personal style. A-line coats suit pear-shaped women, those with hourglass figures can be covered with a belt and coat, while bigger women will look great in a dressing-gown style coat. Those with skirts need to make sure that the coat’s length is a few inches higher than the bottom of the skirt, or instead, buy a short jacket that ends at the waist. Before making a purchase, make sure that you actually see what style personally suits you.
A bright red coat will definitely catch the eye of everyone, but do keep in mind that you will be spending most of your time inside that coat, and such a bold statement requires an equally bold attitude. Make sure that a bright color coat will not clash with the other outfits in your wardrobe, and pick a color that looks good on you and complements your style. Don’t worry about what they are wearing in Paris or Milan, you are not there anyway, and the color is your choice, not theirs.
All coats can look extremely amazing on a magazine model or a mannequin, and when shopping for a winter coat, keep in mind that you are neither a model nor a mannequin, so their bodies can be very different from yours. If you followed the rules in terms of length, shape and color, the only thing missing is for you to try it on and gauge if it really fits you, since you will never know how good clothes look like until you actually put them on.
When it comes to your winter wardrobe, the winter coat is the most important piece, and you don’t want to squander your whole budget on something you will only wear for a few months in a year. But don’t be cheap as well, especially if you want to get the right coat. If you do the right things and your coat suits you in every way, chances are you’ll be wearing them every day.
