Roca Wear is a urban clothing line that is/was created by Hip Hop Rap Artist Jay Z and Former Co-Partner Damon Dash. (Before they split) State Property, Team Roc and Pro Ked are all apart of Roca Wear. Team Roc is specifically design for sports, State Property (Street Wear) is design by Rapper Beanie Sigel and is famously loved for i'ts many pockets. Pro Keds is apart of the sneaker line.

 

    

Not Reversed                       Reversed

"RW" is always  found on the back of the shirt near neck (below collar) This is usually stitch, if you turn the shirt inside out you will see the inside logo "RW" also.

 

The inside collar as two labels, the top label says rocawear (sometimes you can find the instuction care at the back of this label, depends on the season it was put out) and the one behind, has the size, type of fabric, made, and  RN&CA #

 

The polo shirt, buttons down at the neck with 3 coveted buttons (They are usually crystal clear and has rocawear written on them)

 

 

 Not Reversed                        Reversed  

A Stitch logo is found on the  upper left chest area.  This can be in the form of a emblem, "RW" "R" (Remember what ever logo you find on the outside of shirt, to turn the fabric inside out and check for the reverse stitching for authencity)

 

If you turn shirt inside out on the lower left side near hem, there should be two polyester/silk made labels side to side, or on top of each other, one has instruction care in english, behind it and the other says "rocawear authentic" Sometimes only the roca wear authentic label is found there.

 

Polo shirts has slits on both sides near hem. The polo shirts always have ribbed collar, ribbed sleeve hem and ribbed hem. Some shirts are made with half  polo and the other half, has some other fabric.

 

Most jacket comes with a coveted, zipper, meaning the rocawear/state property/team roc word/logo is embossed or stitched to an extended fabric on zipper. If jacket has hoodie to it. Rocawear logo "RW" can be found on top of hoodie.

 

 

Some later clothes now have slogans on their label that says

 "It's not where you're from, but what you Roc".

 

 

 

Chain Stitching are done with 6- 8 rows of stitching.

 

 

Some tops are silk screened. This appears to look like paint, and last a good while before stripping.

If, on the the first wash and the paint began to fade or melt in the dryer, then the shirt is fake. What  may have appeared to be "silk screen" might have been "heat transfer". Every authentic Men's Rocawear top has the "RW" on the outer neck back!!

 

I hope this was very helpful to you.
