Shopping for TRs

I went TR shopping in a town near me today. Tried on some dark Billy's, nice but bunchy on the legs in the back. Then I heard of this other store and went in and they were selling fake TR's, Joeys, woodstock, etc for $159. It was gross. I hate that they were selling them but at the same time I'm glad I could use the opportunity to see a pair of fakes in real life. Anyways I'm going to another store in a bit to continue TR shopping. I'm proud to be able to tell the difference b/w fakes and reals.

Which store was it that was selling the fakes? Can anything be done to report them?

I have seen fake other jeans. They have all been pretty much horrible. The worst being a tie between the fake Diesel X-Rotuck 796 at the rack, and these horribly cut fake Victoria Beckham crown crops (they looked like MC Hammer pants

)

Just recently I saw fake R&Rs with the R backpockets. I am no R&R expert, but they looked horrible.

I would contact the brand labels and give them their address and phone number. They can investigate it themselves. Maybe give them a referral to one of the forums here as a reference, although if they are selling them and are not an authorized seller, then it should be obvious.

my husband reported a store one time...he just went to the tr website and sent them an email from the site, they called him back the next day to basically authenticate his claim...then tr took it from there...the lady was extremely grateful that he was reporting fakes, i think they really appreciate any efforts to crack down on stores selling fakes...
