Shop with confidence knowing every item has passed our authenticity and verification checks.

Experience & Data

Determining whether an item is authentic or not is no small task.

Over the years our in-house team of experts have authenticated 250K+ items on behalf of our customers, and there's no substitute for experience.

We’ve compiled data from every inauthentic item we’ve checked at Label Source to build a database of exactly what to look out for.

This database is updated each & every time we catch a fake, and constantly serves to keep our team educated and up to date.

Authenticity Indicators

We get up close with every item and no stitch goes unmissed.

Key indicators we meticulously check on items are - logo fonts, stitching quality, wash labels, material smell, overall shape, zippers, buttons, material feel, packaging, barcodes, labels and more.

Technology & AI

We have invested heavily into our technology to help assist our experts when it comes to making their decision. We also use market leading 3rd party AI tools, which have over a 99% accuracy rate.
