Saint Laurent sweatshirts are iconic French luxury, with elegant designs and exceptional quality. Unfortunately, their popularity attracts the counterfeit market. If you want to buy an authentic Saint Laurent sweatshirt, here are some tips to help you avoid fakes and spot an original product.
1. Check the interior labels
One of the first things to check is the inner label. Saint Laurent sweatshirts have perfectly printed labels, without smudges or defects. The logo should be clear and well centered. Counterfeits often have poor quality labels, with spelling mistakes or blurry printing.
- Tip: Also check the small fabric label that indicates the composition. It should be made of soft fabric, not paper, with precise and clearly legible information.

2. Examine the logo
The Saint Laurent logo is often reproduced incorrectly on counterfeits. The letters must be clear and perfectly spaced. A distorted, poorly printed or misaligned logo is a sign of counterfeiting.
- Tip: Compare the logo with the official images on the Saint Laurent website. Any difference, even a small one, could indicate a fake piece.

3. The quality of the material
Saint Laurent sweatshirts are made from high-quality materials. The fabric should be soft, dense and pleasant to the touch. Counterfeits often use cheap materials that are thinner, less soft and easily deform after a few washes.
- Tip: Run your hand over the sweatshirt to assess the quality of the fabric. A genuine sweatshirt should be thick and have a good hold.

4. Check seams and finishes
Saint Laurent garments are renowned for their impeccable finishing. The seams must be straight, regular and without loose threads. Counterfeits often have irregular seams or defects in the finishing.
- Tip: Look closely at the edges of the sweatshirt, the sleeves and the inside of the pockets. Any imperfections in the seams can indicate a fake product.

5. The price
Saint Laurent sweatshirts are luxury items, and their prices reflect this quality. If you see a sweatshirt priced way too low compared to the retail price (which is usually around $300-$700), it's probably a counterfeit.
- Tip: Beware of big discounts on unofficial sites. Always check prices on the official website or at authorized resellers.
6. Reliable outlets
To avoid counterfeits, it is essential to buy from trusted retailers or directly from the official Saint Laurent website. Quality second-hand stores, such as Le Saptuaire , guarantee authentic, verified products at attractive prices.
