| | | Awesome guide! It's really nice of you guys to write up something like that for everyone
Maybe you could watermark the size 28 tag, and the "Authentic" tag as well? Just in case!

But I have a suggestion. For lazy ppl like me, a short concise list of bullet pointed things to look for in summary would be a good help
And watermark those real pics before they too get stolen by scheming ingrates.  |

| | | I actually found this slightly unhelpful on review.
One thing I can think of from the top of my head that was misleading was in relation to the tags. You photographed a fake tag which yes, was fake, but you said that a way of telling this was that the Rock & Republic was not correctly centered.
I have real authentic R&R bought from VERY well respected forum members. These have a correct material not papery size tag where the Rock & Republic lettering is exactly the same. That means it is incorrectly centred on the correct tags and is more right aligned than centered.
Also, the guide says that the newer tags have microstitching and it is some older size tags that do not have this. Yet I recently bought a brand new pair of Anthrax Skull Berlins from Idalis and when I asked her where the microstitching was, she explained to me that it wasnt present because the newer jeans also don't have microstitching, so I think the guide should be updated to show that the newer styles will also be missing the microstitching and that we shouldn't presume they are fake. |

| | | The newer tags have a strip on the small "authentic R&R" tag (i couldn't possibly tell if there's any printing on it, it's tiny), as well as other features, which are already stated in the guide |

| | | No more fakes!! Finally a great R&R guide! I wish I had this available on ebay before I was taken for $150!! on a pair of fake Rock and Republic Victoria Beckham jeans on PureRunway.com site. They sent me a pair from China with no labels-the jeans are unlike any of the pictures on their site.
It's time we have a guide to stop this.
Now we have one!
Good Job!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You got my vote. |
