How do we guarantee the authenticity of every item we sell?
How do we guarantee the authenticity of every item we sell? Our quality control team hand-check every item we sell ot Messina Hembry Clothing to ensure their authenticity Our quality control team will research into specific products to ensure they up to date with new counterfeiting methods and to take all reasonable endeavours to ensure our consumers only receive authentic products We also offer all our customers a 100% guarantee that their items will be genuine or their money back.
Some of the standard processes we used in order to identify and destroy counterfeit material include:
The Fabric
Designer items are high quality fabrics both on the outside and within any linings and labels. Fake items might feel more coarse and less comfortable. If an item is leather it should have a more irregular texture and a slight leather scent. A fake leather item may look more uniform and smell chemically. We will also check the material composition of items within the care labels to ensure only high quality materials are used within specific products.
The Stitching
Genuine designer fashion will have straight & even stitching around pockets and seams. We will pay close attention to labels that have been sewn onto the product. Genuine items will have matching cotton rather than a different colour and you generally shouldn’t be able to see obvious stitching at the back of the label when its onto a garment.
Fastenings
All zips should move freely and feel heavy. The bottom of the zip should also meet the zip itself neatly. Most brands will also use a branded zip such as YKK. Buttons should be attached securely and may feature details that fakes would lack like logos or branding.
