2008 Abercrombie & Fitch twill short counterfeit

A&F Trademark, Inc. is a member of the ebay VeRo Program ( Verified Rights Owner - intellectual property rights owner )

***** Report A&F counterfeit auctions or recieved goods to abercrombie_and_fitch_security *****

OR Abercrombie & Fitch 866.901.FAKE (3253) U.S. / 614.283.8100 outside the U.S. / email BP_Tips @ abercrombie.com

Report A&F counterfeit auctions or recieved goods to ebay

A PayPal dispute or claim for recieved A&F counterfeits will get your $ back 

After so leave negative feedback for the seller if the recieved A&F is counterfeit warning prospective customers

Use common sense while in search of A&F on ebay

A&F stores are in the USA - Canada - London England - soon Tokyo Japan

Some locations below for current ebay A&F listings belonging to Powersellers

AUSTIN,TEXAS Taiwan Malaysia Thailand Hong Kong Singapore China Brazil Japan OverSeas APO/FPO

Don't get that deal!

Abercrombie will redesign short models with new short names every 4 months on the average

Remember the Ezra cargo or the Nye Mountain cargo which are no longer available? See 1 of these new & know they're counterfeit shorts

Only so many A&F shorts are allocated to A&F stores per volume rating

*A rating for small A&F stores / *E rating for large A&F stores like the San Francisco, CA. store

After an authentic A&F short production run, that short manufacture stops, thus counterfeit A&F shorts

 

COUNTERFIET FAKE                                                                   AUTHENTIC Abercrombie & Fitch

       

** Above left A&F counterfeit 2008 Forked Lake short pic **

** Compare the color of the short / color of the belt / color of the waist button / A&F label color **

** Also notice the belt stitching on the counterfeit / compare with the authentic A&F belts at the bottom of this guide **

2 pix above right 2008 NWT A&F Forked Lake shorts I shot personally - 1 with flash - 1 in the sun attempting to duplicate the lighting in the counterfeit pic

If a stock photo is used on an auction ask the seller to upload pictures of the actual short for purchase & compare here

2008 A&F twill shorts are manufactured in China & India

The vintage A&F wash creates subtle nicking & grinding on the short

The vintage A&F wash creates a distressed worn look on the belts - belt loops - short leg bottoms - pocket openings - exposed surfaces - seams

Small pumice stones are used in the vintage A&F wash

If the A&F shorts were purchased in an A&F store the price tag will have the retail price printed on the tag

Abercrombie & Fitch clothing has a distinctive fragrance just like the A&F store if the article was purchased in the store new

A&F short hardware including metal waist & fly buttons have the antiqued look, not a shiney new metal look

 Waist buttons use dark thread to fasten the antiqued metal buttons, not the same color of thread as the short

The 2008 twill short line up plastic buttons will have colorless Abercrombie & Fitch on the buttons; the same color as the button

The plastic buttons usually have the same color thread as the button, seldom white thread is used with the plastic buttons

A&F twill shorts that come with a belt have a tag on the belt with the size corresponding to the size of the short ( size 28, 28 printed on the belt tag )

Don't counterfeit yourself

Abercrombie & Fitch is quality
