The online marketplace is, at any given time, flooded with bogus Burberry merchandise. It is not uncommon to see bags, wallets, perfume and everything in between replicated from pallets in China and then shipped to the United States. This is more common than any with the Burberry scarf. Especially during the winter months and around the holiday season, you will see a sizable bump in fake Burberry scarves on places like eBay etc. This doesn’t mean it’s impossible to find an authentic scarf online, it just means you need to be a little bit more focused when you do.

Label:

Everything made by Burberry is made of high quality, and this includes every piece of merchandise, including things that are seemingly as irrelevant as a label. Many people worry themselves with what the label should say, this is also important, but this article will specifically focus on what the label should look like. But more importantly, the quality of the label. An authentic label will not be a cheap fabric, with a screen printed logo. The authentic label will have a very structured look. The texture of the fabric will be evident, and the label will have texture to it. Meaning if you run your finger over the label, you can feel the granular ridges from the weave pattern. The logo, the Burberry font,it will also have the same quality texture, it will not be a cheaply printed logo, or a surface stamp. On a fake label, it may not have any noticeable texture, and the logo will most likely have a superficially printed appearance.

Logo:

The letters in the font on a fake Burberry scarf can also, if they are screen printed on superficially, have a smudged appearance in places. The logo may also bleed in places towards the label background. An authentic logo will have a fresh, clear and symmetrical look. There will be no signs of bleeding or any irregular or smudged spots in the font. The tips aren’t all the details regarding a fake Burberry scarf, but many of the imposters on the market can be avoided with a simple label inspection. Good luck and safe shopping!
