How to Identify Genuine Branded Apparel & Footwear: Why Authenticity Matters

In today's value-driven market, consumers are smarter and more brand-aware than ever. As demand for premium brands at affordable prices rises, so does the risk of counterfeit products entering the market. Whether it's a pair of high-end sneakers or a designer t-shirt, ensuring authenticity isn't just about preserving brand value—it's about earning and maintaining customer trust.

At Brands Always, we take authenticity seriously. Here’s why it matters—and how you can distinguish genuine branded products from counterfeits.

Ensuring the authenticity of branded apparel and footwear is crucial for maintaining customer trust and satisfaction. Counterfeit products not only compromise quality but also pose ethical and safety concerns. Here's how genuine products differ from fakes:

Material Quality

Authentic items are crafted from premium materials like genuine leather and high-quality fabrics, offering durability and comfort. Counterfeits often use inferior materials that feel cheap and wear out quickly.

Stitching and Craftsmanship

Genuine products feature precise, uniform stitching and meticulous craftsmanship. In contrast, fakes may have uneven seams, loose threads, and subpar finishing.

Logos and Branding

Authentic brands maintain consistent logos with accurate fonts and placements. Counterfeit items may display misspelled brand names, distorted logos, or incorrect placements.

Hardware and Fastenings

Original products use high-quality zippers, buttons, and other hardware, often engraved with the brand name. Fakes typically have generic, low-quality hardware that may break easily.

Packaging and Labels

Genuine items come with well-designed packaging, including authenticity cards, holograms, and detailed labels. Counterfeits often have poor-quality packaging and lack proper labeling.

Price Point

If a deal seems too good to be true, it probably is. Authentic branded products rarely have steep discounts, whereas counterfeits are often sold at significantly lower prices to lure buyers.

By choosing our franchise, you ensure that customers receive only genuine, high-quality branded apparel and footwear, reinforcing trust and promoting long-term loyalty.
