How can you tell if Gucci clothes are real?

How can you tell if Gucci clothes are real?
To tell if Gucci clothes are real, compare the brand tags to images found on trusted online resources. Often, counterfeits will have slight variations in the font, positioning or text size that make them relatively simple to identify. Also, the tag should be securely sewn onto the garment. Loose tags will usually indicate a reproduction. Feel the fabric and examine the seams if the tag doesn't yield any clues. Gucci knitwear typically features heavy fabrics that feel soft, while replicas may feature thinner or stiffer materials. All seams on authentic Gucci pieces should be evenly stitched and tight. Loose threads and uneven and misaligned stitching will usually indicate a fake. When in doubt, have a certified appraiser or expert authenticator assist you with the authentication process.
