If you’d like to check out our 100% free forever library of real vs fake Supreme guides, feel free to click here.
This being said, and now that you know the main goal of this fake vs real Supreme legit check guide, we should proceed to the proper real vs fake Supreme guide.
To put it shortly, the quickest way to spot fake Supreme items is to check the wash tag and the neck tag inside your item, as the replica manufacturers never manage to fix the flaws in terms of text positioning, font-weight and other factors on these little tags.
When speaking of Supreme legit checking, people first think of the wash tag, and they are correct because it is one of the best signs of authenticity on the Supreme items.
The wash tag is 90% of the times the most reliable sign of authenticity, and the other 10% credit goes to the neck tag, especially for the t-shirts.
Now, we are first going to analyze the fake vs real Supreme Bandana box logo hoodies’ wash tags, and then, we are also going to check out other real vs fake Supreme wash tag comparisons.
First of all, as we’ve previously mentioned, we are first going to analyze the fake vs real Supreme Bandana bogo (box logo) image in order to visualise and easily understand the flaws on the fake item.
Now that you had a look at the Supreme Bandana Bogo fake vs real image above, let’s move on to the flaws on the replica Supreme Bandana’s wash tag.
As for the first step on how to spot fake Supreme Banda Bogos on the wash tags, you have to look at the stitching at the top of the wash tag.
Mostly, the fake Supreme Bandana Bogos have their stitching “disconnected”, while all of the stitches on the legit Supreme item’s wash tag are connected.
Besides, the authentic Supreme Bogo has all of its stitches wavy placed on the wash tag, while the replica Supreme Bandana Bogo has its stitches straightly placed.
As for the trademark symbol, you can easily notice how the fake Supreme Bandana Bogo item has the letter “R” inside the circle too big as it hits the edges at the top and the bottom of the circle.
On the other hand, the legit Supreme Bandana Bogo has the letter inside the circle sized well enough not to touch the edges of the circle, unlike the replica which is exactly the opposite.
Moving on the middle of the wash tag, you can see how the fake Supreme Bandana Box Logo item has its “CARE INSTRUCTIONS” text (and even the line below) looking too big and too thick compared to the text on the legit Bandana Box Logo, which is thinner and smaller.
These four lines of text are basically the text under the “CARE INSTRUCTIONS” printing which we have previously inspected on the real vs fake Supreme Banda items.
On the fake Supreme Bandana Box Logo, you can easily notice how these four lines of text are significantly thicker and too big in dimensions compared to the authentic Supreme Banda item’s text on the wash tag.
As for this printing, looking at the replica Supreme Bandana Box Logo item, you can notice how the text appears to use a different font than the font used for the lettering on the authentic Supreme Banda item. This is the most visible on the numbers, especially on the 1.
At the bottom left corner of the size tag, you will notice the “30°” text which stands for the number of degrees when washing the Supreme Bandana Bogo.
On the fake Supreme Bandana Bogo item, you can easily notice how the degree symbol (°) is thinner than the symbol on the authentic Supreme Bandana Box Logo.
As for the last element which we will inspect on the fake vs real Supreme Bandana’s wash tag, we have to check the dimensions of the “MADE IN CANADA” text.
On the fake Supreme Bandana item, you can see how the “MADE IN CANADA” text is significantly bigger in height than the text on the legit Supreme Bandana item.
With all of this being said for the wash tag of the real vs fake Supreme Bandana items, you may have noticed how in the Supreme Bandana fake vs real image above, the authentic Supreme item says “100% COTTON” at the middle, while the fake one says “90% COTTON / “10% POLYESTER”.
If your Supreme Bandana item says “90% COTTON / “10% POLYESTER”, don’t worry – that doesn’t mean that you have a fake Supreme Bandana item.
There are authentic Supreme Bandana items that say both “100% COTTON” and “90% COTTON / “10% POLYESTER”.
Above, we have placed an example of an authentic Supreme Box Logo hoodie which says “90% COTTON / “10% POLYESTER”.
Let’s have a look at another comparison of the real vs fake Supreme bogo hoodie, but this time, we are going to analyze the wash tags of the real vs fake Supreme classic bogo hoodie.
In the real vs fake Supreme Bogo hoodie image above, we have highlighted how, at the top of the fake Supreme item’s wash tag, the stitching is slanted and uneven compared to the authentic Supreme item’s wash tag.
In the middle of the wash tag, you can easily notice how the fake Supreme item has too little space between the “CARE INSTRUCTIONS” printing and the black line below.
On the other hand, the authentic Supreme has more a lot more space between the “CARE INSTRUCTIONS” text and the black bar below.
Moving lower on the fake vs real Supreme Bogo image, you can notice how at the bottom of the wash tag, there is a spacing problem between the bottom of the size tag and the last elements printed above.
In the real vs fake Supreme Bogo hoodie image above, you can easily notice how the fake Supreme item has all of its printing looking way too thin compared to the authentic Supreme Bogo’s wash tag’s elements, which are thicker.
As a little observation point, we recommend you to keep an eye out for the following extra clip flaw.
The authentic Supreme box logo hoodies will never have this extra clip flaw, as the wash tag will always be stitched into the hoodie, unlike the fake one in the image above, which has an extra clip, even though it is stitched in.
With all of this being said just for the real vs fake Supreme hoodies, we should now proceed to the wash tags of the fake vs real Supreme crewnecks.
Moving on from the real vs fake Supreme hoodies’ wash tags, we are now going to check out the fake vs real Supreme crewneck box logo images for the wash tag.
First of all, we will look at the reference fake vs real Supreme box logo crewneck images on the front side of the wash tag.
As you can see, the fake vs real Supreme bogo crewneck image above has different releases/models for the wash tags from the real vs fake Supreme bogo crewneck items.
First, we are going to check these two different models in the fake vs real Supreme bogo crewneck image above, and then, we are going to check two models which are the same.
1 – The stitching at the top
This being said, looking at the real vs fake Supreme bogo crewneck image, you can notice how the first hand-emoji pointer shows you the stitching being different from the fake vs real Supreme crewnecks.
On the authentic Supreme box logo crewneck, you can easily notice how all of the stitches have the same weight and length.
Then, looking at the replica Supreme bogo crewneck, you can see how the stitches are improperly weighted and positioned, as some of them are too thick, and some of them are too thin.
Besides, the stitches on the fake bogo are also too short compared to the stitches met on the authentic Supreme box logo crewneck.
2 – The “Supreme” printing
Looking back at the real vs fake Supreme box logo crewneck image above, you can notice how the replica Supreme crewneck has its letters looking too thin compared to the text met on the authentic Supreme box logo.
3 – The registered trademark “®” symbol
Next to the “Supreme” text, we have pointed out how the replica Supreme box logo crewneck has its registered trademark “®” symbol looking too thin and too small.
On the other hand, the authentic Supreme box logo crewneck has its “®” character looking thicker and bigger than the fake crewneck’s symbol.
4 – The “100% COTTON” printing
The fake Supreme bogo crewneck in the real vs fake Supreme crewneck image above has its “100% COTTON” text visibly thinner, smaller and somewhat boxier than the text met on the retail Supreme crewneck
The text on the authentic Supreme box logo crewneck is visibly thicker, wider, and bigger than the one met on the fake box logo crewneck.
5 – The “CARE INSTRUCTIONS” and the lines below
This is pretty much the only difference of the releases/models in the fake vs real Supreme bogo crewneck image above, which we’ll investigate in just a bit.
As for now, looking at the fake vs real Supreme bogo crewneck image above, you can notice how the replica Supreme item has its “CARE INSTRUCTIONS” text and the lines below looking too thin.
The authentic crewneck has all of its letters at the same font-weight, unlike the fake item’s letters.
6 – The “MADE IN CANADA” / “RN 101837” prints
In the Supreme crewneck fake vs real image above, it is visible how the fake Supreme crewneck has its two lines of text looking too thick and too boxy compared to the ones met on the authentic Supreme crewneck’s wash tag.
7 – The washing information symbols
Lastly, the fake Supreme box logo crewneck has its “30°” (30 degrees) symbol looking obviously smaller and thinner than the text met on the retail Supreme box logo crewneck.
This being said for the real vs fake Supreme box logo crewneck image above, let’s have a look at another comparison, which has the same inscriptions on the wash tag, indicating the same release.
We are not going to say all of the flaws once again since it is obviously visible in the real vs fake Supreme crewneck image above that all of the flaws from the previous comparison apply to this one as well.
This being said, in this fake vs real Supreme crewneck comparison, you can notice the same flaws in terms of different font-weights and placement from the previous comparison.
Now, we should as well proceed to the printings met on the rear side of the fake vs real Supreme crewneck’s wash tag.
Once again, we’ll do the same thing as from the front side – we will first compare different releases, and then, the same ones.
In the fake vs real Supreme crewneck image above, it is visible how the replica Supreme crewneck has its “100% COTTON” text looking too wide and too thin compared to the text on the authentic item.
Looking at the retail Supreme box logo crewneck, you can notice how the “100% COTTON” text is thicker and boxier compared to the fake item’s text.
Moving on, we have another inscription which stands for the “100% COTTON” text, but this time in an Asian language.
This time, it is visible how the replica Supreme crewneck has its text too thick and too boxy compared to the one on the authentic wash tag.
The authentic Supreme crewneck’s wash tag has its text looking thinner and taller, wider, and less boxy compared to the text of the counterfeit Supreme crewneck.
Moving on to the inferior side of the wash tag, you can notice in the real vs fake Supreme crewneck image above how the fake Supreme bogo item has its “0570-057-300” text looking too thin compared to the text met on the authentic box logo item.
Lastly, the “30” inscription in the bottom left corner of the fake item’s wash tag is too thin compared to the “30” text visible on the authentic Supreme box logo crewneck’s wash tag.
Let’s also have a look at the reference real vs fake Supreme box logo crewnecks with the same model/release, having the same inscriptions on both the fake vs real Supreme crewneck.
Once again, looking at the reference fake vs real image above, you can notice how the fake Supreme crewneck has its “100% COTTON” text in English looking too big and too thick compared to the authentic item.
Then, the “100% COTTON” text in the Asian language in the middle side of the wash tag is once again looking too thick on the fake wash tag, while the text on the authentic Supreme item’s wash tag is thinner.
This being said for the wash tag of the fake vs real Supreme box logo crewnecks, we should proceed to the next step of the guide on how to spot fake Supreme crewnecks.
For the wash tag of the real vs fake Supreme t-shirts, things get to be a little different from the hoodie, as the wash tag is basically the rear side of the neck tag, which we are going to inspect soon.
As for the real vs fake Supreme t-shirt wash tag comparison, we are going to have the Supreme Brooklyn box logo (store opening) t-shirt for reference.
Now that you’ve had a look at the fake vs real Supreme bogo tee image, let’s proceed to the flaws on the fake item.
First of all, if you take a quick look at the main text on the upper side of the wash tag, you’ll notice how the fake Supreme bogo tee has its text looking too thin compared to the text on the authentic item.
On top of that, if you look at the “TUBMLE” text on the fake Supreme bogo tee, you’ll easily notice how the letter “M” is too thick compared to the text on the authentic Bogo, which is thinner.
Moving a bit ower, we have the grey “SUPREME” text, in the middle of the wash tag.
Looking at the fake Supreme Brooklyn bogo tee, you can see how the text is so transparent as you can’t even notice it – it looks like it is not there.
Lastly, looking at the RN#101837 text, it is visible how the text met on the fake Supreme Brooklyn Bogo is too thick compared to the text met on the authentic Supreme item.
With all of this being said for the Supreme fake vs real wash tags, we should proceed to the next step of the guide on how to spot fake Supreme items.
As for the second step of the guide on how to spot fake Supreme items, we are going to analyze the fake vs real Supreme items’ neck tags, since it is the second-best sign of authenticity.
First of all, we are going to check out the fake vs real Supreme neck tag on the hoodie, then on the crewneck, and lastly, on the t-shirts.
First of all, the spacing between the neck tags varies even on the retail Supreme Box Logo items, so don’t take it for the exact millimetric measure on your Supreme item too.
Moving to the “Supreme” tag on the neck tag, you can notice how the fake Supreme item has its text looking too wonky.
In fact, the fake Supreme item’s neck tag’s letters are improperly positioned, as some letters are higher than they are supposed to be, and even the font-weight differs too.
About the font-weight problem, you can inspect the bottom side of the letter “p” in the “Supreme” text, and you will see how it is thicker on the fake Supreme item’s neck tag than the letter “p” on the legit tag.
Despite the text’s distance varying on the authentic Supreme items’ neck tag, they should never be overlapping or touching as the text in the fake example, visible in the two real vs fake Supreme Bogo hoodie images below.
In the fake vs real Supreme Bogo image above, you can see the first example of a bad positioning on the fake Supreme Bogo.
You will never see an authentic Supreme Bogo having the overlapping problem of these two tags pointing to the Supreme logo and the country in which the items were made.
On the other hand, on the fake Supreme items, it is common for these two to overlap.
Up next, we are going to check the real vs fake Supreme crewnecks’ neck tags with the help of the reference fake vs real Supreme crewneck image.
In the real vs fake Supreme box logo crewneck image above, we have pointed out three main flaws visible on the replica Supreme crewneck example.
The hand-emoji pointer placed above the “Supreme ®” text shows you how the replica Supreme box logo crewneck has its text looking too thin and too big compared to the text visible on the authentic item’s neck tag.
Then, a critical flaw on the replica Supreme box logo items is that they have their two tags placed too close to each other.
The authentic Supreme box logo crewnecks will never have their two tabs placed as close to each other as to make contact.
In the fake vs real Supreme crewneck image above, it is visible how the replica Supreme crewneck has its “Supreme ®” and its “MADE IN CANADA” labels placed too close to each other, as they make contact.
On the other hand, it is clear how to legit Supreme box logo item has its tags placed further away from each other, having blank space between.
Lastly, looking at the “MADE IN CANDA” text, it is visible how the replica Supreme box logo crewneck has its text looking too thin compared to the one met on the retail box logo crewneck.
As you may be used to already, we are first going to check the Supreme real vs fake image, and then, we will proceed to the flaws on the fake item’s neck tag.
In the real vs fake Supreme Bandana image above, we have pointed out how the letters in the “Supreme” box logo at the top of the neck tag have different shapes.
In fact, the fake Supreme Bandana item’s letters in the box logo look too thin compared to the letters on the authentic Supreme Bandana.
Besides, you can also spot how the fake Supreme Bandana Box Logo has the letters at the top of the neck tag placed incorrectly, as they have too much space between them compared to the spacing on the authentic Supreme Bandana’s neck tag, which is smaller.
On the bottom right corner below the Supreme box logo, you can see how the counterfeit Supreme Bandana Bogo item’s trademark character (®) is too big and too thick than the trademark on the legit Supreme Bandana.
Besides, on the fake Supreme Bandana Box Logo’s trademark symbol, you can also notice how the letter “R” touches the edges of the circle, while on the legit Supreme Bandana Bogo, the letter “R” is as small as it doesn’t touch any of the edges of the circle.
Lastly, we have placed a hand-emoji pointer in the real vs fake Supreme Bandana Box Logo image above, showing you that the “PRE-SHRUNK” text and the 2-3 (depending on your neck tag) lines of text below have their text looking thicker and boxier than the text on the legit Supreme Bandana item.
