I would be skeptical of any clothing apparel being shipped from Hong Kong. But to clarify. You can examine the tag you'll notice that the 0's don't have a cross through them which is apparent in authetic SFAM.

Also on another note. The seller Krisler_Shop has been known to be selling fakes hence the low price in which the auction ended with.

I haven't ever seen a tag such as that on a pair of SFAM. That is the first time I have seen that bold centered printing for style and cut numbers.

On all the pairs I have seen, the word "Cut #:" is stictched, and only the actual digits are printed.

In any event, why are made in the USA jeans coming from Hong Kong. This is a huge red flag for me.

thanx for the replies....to be honest i wanted to test the forum's waters a little and see what kind of eye for a fake you folks have. now about the jeans.

i think you guys need to let the crossed 0's on the sticker go, because i'm really not sure this is a dead give away.

however my assessment was that these are fakes, how to tell......seller does not have great feedback+ he is selling huge lots of the same jeans....for seemingly rock bottom prices, probably not. hong kong is possibly(not definetely) a red flag as well.

p.s. i didn't buy them

I wanted to "test the waters". Lmao.. ok Mr./Mrs. "Expert". Because you know everything about seven jeans you are in a suitable position to be testing us. Thank you for wasting all our time. Not only that, your "hints" were all previously mentioned in previous posts... trust me, they really aren't ground-breaking in the least.

I remember when I 1st saw this post... when it was just the original thread and no one had replied. I immedietly thought to myself, "another moronic newbie... question of authenticity is so obvious, but stupid newbie is too lazy to do homework and see how to tell." I didn't get to reply belittling the newbie, though, because I was too busy playing poker. Today, I look back, and the newbie is ten times lamer than I had originally imagined, thinking he/she is a seven jeans connoisseur, and wasting everyone else's time with this "test".

Thank you for "your assessment". I'm sure no one else ever thought of looking at feedback. By the way, genius, there is a search feature on the forum. Maybe you should try "testing the water" by looking over old posts instead of posting garbage. Thanks.

WOW there benny boy.....i guess the issue of jeans are very near and dear to you. these are just jeans we're talking about, right?

but hey god bless you for cleaning up this forum, next the world right?

telling someone that you refrained from belittling them, only to go ahead and do it anyway is the equivalent to "hey dude, i really don't mean to offend you, but you suck"

perhaps by "testing the waters" what i really was intending to do was see what type of response i would get...or maybe i was trying to condescend upon all lower beings who cannot spot a fake jean from a mile away with their amazing eagle-eye vision.....

now that i know how people treat each other here i won't bother you enlightened and clearly superior beings anymore. so i apologize for disgracing you with my presence.

I'll look for you on the world series of poker, Go Benchango the fandango kid!

now this on the other hand is a good dig, my compliments mister shark. short, sweet, and to the point. and no you will not be tested, but this material will be on the final

upon re-reading my follow-up post, where i was qouted saying "testing the waters" and all that, i realize i was much more descriptive than i needed to be....my mistake.

at the end of the auction no one had yet replied so i thought i would share my reasons for believing them to be a fake, i thought that's what this site was about, comparing ideas. now i don't care what this site is about anymore. cya, good luck

Also, I never said I refrained from belittling you. I always had the intention of doing it, it just wasn't convenient at the time. You are right about how you suck though.
