The Gucci x The North face collaboration was quite an unexpected one, but here we are with the collaboration that took place, as well as with the replicas that hit the market.

And so, we’re here to clarify the differences between the authentic vs replica Gucci x The North Face t-shirts.

In fact, we’ve complied this fake vs real Gucci x TNF tee legit check guide that applies to all of the colourways in which the tee was released.

Along with every step of our fake vs real Gucci x The North Face legit check guide, we are going to link images containing both the authentic and the fake tees.

These images will easily assist you in spotting the differences between the fake vs authentic Gucci TNF t-shirts.

Tot put it shortly, the the easiest way to spot fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirts is to look at the wash tag and at the neck tag, as the replica Gucci x TNF tees never have their characters properly defined, since the fake items always present font-weight flaws for their symbols.

How to spot fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirts

Step 1: Real vs fake Gucci x TNF t-shirt wash tag

For the very first step of the guide on how to spot fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirts, we are going to have a quick look at the wash tag.

Just as how we’ve previously mentioned, we consider the wash tag as the best way to spot fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirts, because the fake items never have this detail properly defined.

With this being mentioned, we’d like to recommend that you never skip checking the wash tag on a Gucci x TNF tee, since it can easily tell you the authenticity of that t-shirt.

In the image with the real vs fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirts above, we have pointed out how the fake Gucci x TNF tee has three easily visible flaws.

First of all, looking at the “G U C C I” text logo at the top of the wash tag, you can observe how the fake Gucci tee has its letters in the logo looking too boxy.

On the other hand, the genuine Gucci x TNF tee has its “G U C C I” text at the top looking wider and generally bigger than the fake item’s text.

Still within the same “G U C C I” text, you can observe how the fake tee has its text looking a bit too thin and also scrapped, as if it was washed out.

Back to the authentic The North Face x Gucci t-shirt, you can observe how its text looks thicker and more defined, as it presents no scratch or any sort of flaw, unlike the fake Gucci tee’s text, which is scratched.

Then, looking at the first block of text, we have the inscriptions that indicate the country of manufacturing the genuine Gucci x TNF tees, which is Italy.

And so, the replica Gucci x The North Face t-shirt has its lines of text indicating the “MADE IN ITALY” text looking way thinner than the real deal’s text.

Then, the next block of text that covers the main part on the bottom side of the wash tags indicates information regarding the materials out of which the genuine item was manufactured.

Looking at the fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirt’s “FABRIC” lines of text, you can see how the fake piece has its words looking really thin.

Yet again, the authentic Gucci x The North Face tee has its inscriptions thicker, applying to all of the lines of text on the bottom side of the wash tag, when compared to the replica item’s text.

Step 2: Look at the neck tag of your TNF x Gucci t-shirt

Moving forward to the second step of the guide on how to spot fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirts, we are going to have a look at the neck tag of the two items.

Just as always and how we’ve promised, we are going to have a look at the neck tag of the real vs fake Gucci x TNF t-shirts.

Since this t-shirt is a collaboration, you can see how both the “GUCCI” text, the Gucci classic red threads and the green and red logo were mixed with The North Face’s text logo and the classic igloo logo.

Starting with the red threads at the top left and right corner on the replica Gucci x The North Face tees, you can see how the replica Gucci x TNF tee has its threads too small and too thick.

Looking at the genuine Gucci x The North Face tee’s red threads, you can see how these are thinner and longer than the fake item’s threads.

Then, looking at the “THE NORTH FACE” text logo, you can see how the fake item has its text too thick.

In fact, this flaw applies to all three words that craft The North Face’s logo on the fake item’s neck tag, while the authentic item has its text thinner.

Then, looking at the “GUCCI” text logo, you can observe how the replica Gucci x TNF tee has its text looking too thick, this time.

On the other hand, the legit Gucci x The North Face t-shirt has its orange “GUCCI” text looking thinner and giving a smaller look when compared to the fake tee’s thicker and seemingly more massive text.

Lastly, looking at the few stitching threads at the bottom side of the fake Gucci x TNF tee’s neck tag, you can see how the fake item has its stitches too thick and too big.

The authentic Gucci x The North Face t-shirt has its stitches at the bottom side of the neck tag looking thinner and smaller than the fake item’s text.

Step 3: Fake vs real Gucci x The North Face t-shirt “Made in Italy” tab

Since we couldn’t really fit in the “Made in Italy” tab inside the neck tag comparison that we’ve previously had a look at, we’ve decided to make this as an individual new step.

And so, for the third step of the guide on how to authenticate Gucci x The North Face t-shirts, we are going to look at the “Made in Italy” tab.

In the image with the fake vs real Gucci x The North Face tees above, we have pointed out how the fake item has its “Made in Italy” tab flawed.

First of all, the overall look of the fake item’s tab is too thick, as it looks bulkier and fatter than the genuine item’s tab, which is thinner and slimmer.

Then, the second flaw on the fake item’s tab is that the “Made in Italy” text is too thin when compared to the real deal.

The authentic Gucci x The North Face t-shirt has its “Made in Italy” text looking thicker and more defined, rather than the fake item’s thinner text.

Step 4: Examine the tab with the size of your Gucci x TNF tee

Proceeding to the fourth step of the guide on how to spot fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirts, we are going to have a look at the real vs fake Gucci x TNF tees for their little tab that indicates the size of the t-shirt.

As always, let’s first quickly inspect the image with the real vs fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirts below, and after that, we will explain the situation on the two items.

In the image with the real vs fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirts above, we have pointed out how the fake Gucci x TNF tee has its letter “L” on the tab looking too thick.

On the other hand, the authentic Gucci x TNF tee has its letter “M” looking thinner than the fake item’s size letter.

Then, checking out the overall look of the fake item’s tab, you can see how the tab looks too thin and too little bulky.

That is because if we compare it to the genuine item’s tab, you can see how it looks thicker and more massive than the fake item’s tab, as the authentic piece has its tab bulkier.

Step 5: Check the extra label of your Gucci x TNF t-shirt

Moving on to the fifth step of the guide on how to spot fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirts, we are going to look at the fake vs real Gucci x TNF items for their extra label.

In the image with the real vs fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirts above, we have pointed out how the fake Gucci x TNF item has its “THE NORTH FACE” text logo coloured in black.

The text should actually be lighter, because if you look at the genuine item’s text, you can see how the text is actually brown, and not black.

Not only that, but the fake item’s “THE NORTH FACE” text is also looking too thin, while the authentic Gucci x TNF tee’s extra label has the same text looking thicker and more defined.

Moving to the “GUCCI” text logo, you can see how the fake item has its text looking really thick when compared to the real item’s text, which is thinner.

Step 6: Look at the print on the front side of the Gucci x TNF tee

As for the sixth and the last step of the guide on how to spot fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirts, we are going to have a look at the “THE NORTH FACE GUCCI” text logo on the front side of the t-shirts.

As always, let’s first have a look at the reference real vs fake Gucci x The North face t-shirts below, before we explain the flaw on the fake item.

Precisely, this flaw applies to all of the letters in the fake Gucci x The North Face t-shirt’s “THE NORTH FACE” logo.

On the other hand, the authentic item has its logos looking thicker and generally bigger than the fake item’s text.
