Spotting real vs. fake fashion items can be tricky, especially with the booming counterfeit market. That’s where platforms like Legit Check and LegitGrails come in — offering expert verification services for everything from sneakers to luxury apparel.
We’ve previously touched on how to spot fakes and the history of counterfeiting, but this time, we’re putting these services to the test. Using two extremely limited jackets — the Trapstar x Avirex and the Pelle Pelle American Bruiser leather jacket — we’ll see how they perform.
Verification Process
For both jackets, we had to submit detailed photos, ensuring every detail was visible, including:
- Prints & patterns
- Zippers
- Brand tags
- Embroidery details
- Seams & stitching
Both platforms promised to complete their legit check within 24 hours. While Legit Check was slightly faster than LegitGrails, both delivered as promised.
Key Authentication Features
To verify authenticity, the following factors were analyzed:
- Material composition: Ensuring fabrics matched brand standards
- Prints & embroideries: Checking for consistency and alignment
- Brand tags: Verifying font, placement, and logo accuracy
- Seams & stitching: Identifying irregularities or shortcuts (common in fakes)
Legit Check
Legit Check is straightforward, with clear instructions that guide you through every step — making it easy to use and reliable. Legit Check confirmed that the submitted Trapstar x Avirex jacket was authentic. Their report below provided a clear justification, explaining why the item was an original piece.
LegitGrails
On the other hand, LegitGrails stands out with its sleek website design. Their interface not only makes navigation easier but also enhances the overall user experience. Below, you’ll see a snapshot of LegitGrails’ website. Its intuitive design, clear instructions, and ease of navigation set it apart from other luxury authentication services.
Results
Unfortunately, LegitGrails could not verify the authenticity of the Trapstar x Avirex jacket due to limited information in their knowledge base for this specific model. While unexpected, we appreciated their transparency and professionalism in handling the situation. They refunded the authentication credits to our LegitGrails account, allowing us to use them for a future submission. Their honest communication and excellent customer service earned our trust.
Would We Recommend These Services?
Absolutely. If you’re looking for a reliable way to authenticate high-value fashion items, both platforms are great options — especially for their attention to detail and speed. Their user-friendly interfaces make them essential tools for navigating the world of counterfeits.
