How to tell if an Off-White belt is real

You can tell if an Off-White belt is real if the text on the wash tag has the same thickness for all inscriptions.

Over 95% of the fake belts have different font-weights for their inscriptions.

Let’s go in-depth.

1. Wash Tag

1.1. Real vs fake

  • Authentic: The genuine Off-White Industrial belt’s characters on the wash tag are thicker and well-defined.
  • Fake: The counterfeit belt displays notably thinner text and elements on the wash tag.

1.2. Legit examples

For your reference, below are two authentic Off-White belt wash tags.

  • Authentic: Real Off-White Industrial belts always have the “MADE IN ITALY” inscription on the wash tag.
  • Fake: Fake belts may display different text, deviating from the standard “MADE IN ITALY.”

2. “W ILL” Flaw

  • Authentic: The text spacing, notably in the word “WILL,” is even and proper.
  • Fake: There’s a noticeable gap between the “W” and the remaining letters in “WILL.”

Over 70% of the fake belts on the market have the “W ILL” flaw.

3. “Syst em” Flaw

  • Authentic: Correct, even spacing and constant text thickness.
  • Fake:
    • The counterfeit belt shows uneven spacing and thinner text throughout.
    • Spacing issue: between “SYST” and “EM”.

Shortlist: Legit check your Off-White belt

  1. Examine the wash tag on your Off-White Industrial belt. Genuine belts will always have “MADE IN ITALY” on the tag, a detail often missing on fakes.
  2. Scrutinize the spacing in the “WILL” text. Authentic belts have consistent letter spacing, while fake ones often display excessive space between the “W” and the rest of the text.
  3. Inspect the “System” text. Fake Off-White belts tend to feature excessive spacing between the “Sys” and “em” portions of the text.
