The #1 way to spot fake Sp5der Pants is to check the thickness of the print. On real pants, the letter “m” in “slime” needs to be so thick that it’s illegible.
1. Print
Authentic: Must have thicker letters, especially: h, s, m, e.
Fake: Letters are too thin — they’re entirely legible.
Is it too hard? Reach out to our Sp5der experts take a look at your hoodie:
Inside the pants, at the top, you’ll find the sp5der logo with some washing instructions. This is the same as the neck tag on a Sp5der hoodie — the same inscription.
Authentic: Very thick letters with a visible black outline.
Fake: Thin letters without a black outline.
3. Relief (3D Letters)
Authentic: Printed letters — they’re not supposed to come out of the fabric.
Fake: 3D Letters, very puffy looking.
