How to tell if a Gucci shirt is real (or fake)

You can tell if a Gucci shirt is real or fake by examining the wash tags on the lower interior side. Fakes never have the right text thickness.

1. Wash tag

1. Authentic:
   • “G U C C I” text at the top has a thinner font-weight.
   • Letters in “G U C C I” text are spaced wider.
   • Wash tag text in the middle is smaller and thicker.
   • Arabic text is thinner compared to the fake version.
   • Washing machine symbols at the bottom are thicker.
2. Fake:
   1. “G U C C I” text at the top is boxy and has a thicker font-weight.
   2. Letters in “G U C C I” text are closer together.
   3. Wash tag text in the middle is larger and thinner.
   4. Arabic text is thicker than on the authentic version.
   5. Washing machine symbols at the bottom are thinner.

2. Neck tag

• Authentic:
  • “G U C C I” text at the top is less boxy with more space between letters.
  • “Made in Italy” text below the “G U C C I” box is thicker.
• Fake:
  • “G U C C I” text appears too boxy with letters closely spaced.
  • “Made in Italy” text is notably thinner.

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. Print

• Authentic:
  1. Letter “U” in “GUCCI” is less curvy at the bottom left corner.
  2. Both letters “C” are sharper and longer at the bottom.
  3. Registered trademark symbol (R) is larger and thicker.
  4. “GG” logo in Gucci Belt printing is larger.
• Fake:
  1. Letter “U” is too curvy at the bottom left corner.
  2. Letters “C” appear less sharp and shorter at the bottom.
  3. Registered trademark symbol (R) is smaller and thinner.
  4. “GG” logo appears shrunken and smaller.

Shortlist: Check your shirt

Don’t have enough time to go through the full guide? Use this list:

1. Examine Wash Tags:
2. Replicas often display text that is either too thick or too thin.
   • Pay attention to improper spacing between the letters on wash tags.
3. Inspect Neck Tag:
   • Fakes usually have the “G U C C I” text appearing too boxy with insufficient space between the letters.
   • The “Made in Italy” text at the bottom of the neck tag is often too thin on replicas.
4. Check Frontal Printing:
   • Fake Gucci belts often have a “GUCCI” text where the letter “U” is too curvy, the letters “C” are shorter and less sharp, and the registered trademark symbol is small and thin.
   • Additionally, ensure the size of the “GG” logo is correct, as replicas typically have smaller “GG” logos.

It should help for whenever you’re in a rush.
