Bitch Please… FAKE Iron Heart?
-
Maybe I'm off base here but if something is being copied, poorly or not, it means that it is well known within a community. If it is well known I think it is safe to assume that people within that community have most likely seen, either in person or via the internet, a real version(s) of the product. If this is correct then how can someone look at these pictures and think they are getting a legit Iron Heart product? It is one thing to have a very good fake, but these are awful. The fact that people are tricked by these is mind boggling to me.

Some parts of SE Asian culture are very status based, for those who can't afford the real thing these fakes give the illusion of status. There must be a market or they wouldn't be produced.
Trust me, when I had a little campaign against these assholes last year the argument I constantly got from their punters in that they love Iron Heart/ Samurai/ Momotaro but cannot afford the price, whether they are obviously fake does not enter into their thinking..
Weird I know.

Even at first glance I thought something looked wrong with the tag. No model number? No size?
Then they clearly say "…Iron Heart replica..."

I did.

This is a fake, or no? The fabric looks overdyed. Has there been an OD riders? http://m.ebay.com/itm/IRON-HEART-IH-527J-DENIM-21-OZ-RIDERS-JACKET-SIZE-38-/281918312165?nav=SEARCH

Yeah, he had the brown duck riders jacket and Haraki did a one off OD job on it.
-
Yeah, looks like denim to me, too. Wrong size to be Doug's. Maybe his inspired someone else to try it?
-
I was coming to this thread to report that riders jacket on eBay, but looks like you guys beat me to the punch. Amazingly the auction is still up.
-
It looks like someone got some Rit Dye in black or navy blue. I doubt anyone made a fake riders jacket, but it does look like a much older version. I would ask G-Man for a confirm or find someone who bought one of those jackets like 7-8 years ago.
-
Has anyone reported it?.. And more importantly: has it been confirmed a fake?.. The seller's from Sweden… I love the Swedes!.. Benefit of the doubt 'n all that!..
I'm not sure it is possible to confirm without having the jacket in hand. It definitely has an odd hue to it which I guess could be age or long term light exposure. The details of the jacket look ok but for some reason the whole package looks off.
