How to tell if your Supreme sweater is fake
Tell if your Supreme sweater is fake by examining the wash tag on the interior side. It is the #1 authenticity teller.

A quick mention:
The steps we’ve written so far are the BEST ways to authenticate this item
The next few steps are still reliable methods…
… but they apply to non-top-versions of replicas available for this item
If in doubt, we recommend double-checking the steps we’ve explained above this line.
3. Box logo

Maintaining a balanced and authentic look.

Below is not “the worst” fake, but rather a poorer-quality version.

The letter “r” is thicker and less curvy, maintaining the brand’s authentic design.
Both the first and second letters “e” are adequately thick and curvy at the bottom side.
The letter “m” is properly aligned and not angled too much to the right, with consistent stitching weight on every side.
Fake:
The letter “S” appears too thin at the bottom and too thick in the middle curve.
The spacing between the letters “u” and “p” is too large, while the spacing between “S” and “u” is too small.
The letter “r” in the fake item appears too thin and overly curvy.

Not clear enough? Check this out:

6. Side tag
Authentic: The “Supreme” text is of appropriate thickness and is accurately placed.
Fake: The “Supreme” text appears too thick and may also be misplaced.

To Verify:
To analyze your box logo’s placement, take a picture of your crewneck similar to the example above and draw lines to verify correct placement.
Traditional measurement by hand with two rulers is also a viable option for verification.
Shortlist: Legit check your Supreme sweater
In a rush? Verify your Supreme sweater using this list:
Check the wash tags of your Supreme bogo. Fake wash tags often have different font weights for their letters and improperly positioned stitches.
Examine the neck tag. Fake Supreme neck tags may have their two tabs placed too close to each other, and the letters can be improperly positioned and font-weighted.
Inspect the lettering on the front of your Supreme box logo. Fake items often have letters that are improperly shaped and weighted.
Look at the quality of the blank crewneck. Fake items may have wristbands that are a different color from the rest of the item.
Verify the box logo from the interior side. Replicas often have box logos and letters that are improperly stitched into the crewneck, with many extra threads.
Examine the Supreme logo on the side. Fake Supreme logos on the side of the item may not be centered in the middle of the label, and the text can be too thin or too thick.
Brief all the points and check if your crewneck is on point or not.
