In fact, it depends on whether it is genuine. There are several general ones.
1. Price: Something that is too cheap will not be genuine. Let me give you a little suggestion: the probability of NIKE/ADIDAS clothing under 100 yuan being genuine is very low (especially functional fabrics), and even if it is available, it is very old or in stock.
2. Fabric: Why are good things expensive? In fact, the processing fees in China are very cheap, and the cost comes from the fabric. Many big brands provide fabrics and accessories from customers. Experienced people can tell the authenticity from the fabrics. Especially the functional fabrics dedicated to NIKE/ADIDAS will be explained in detail later, so I won’t go into details here.
3. Main mark/wash mark/ID mark: A truly authentic product should have these. As long as you learn to read these marks, the authentic product will not slip away from your hands.
NIKE article
1. Fabrics
NIKE summer clothes, from the fabric point of view, are mainly SPHERE-DRY and DRI-FIT
SPHERE-DRY fabric
☆Identification method: The fabric is light and thin, and the internal structure is very unique. Because this kind of fabric is specially supplied, there is no imitation that can use this kind of fabric. Therefore, you can tell the authenticity by looking at the fabric structure. ☆
Dri-FIT fabric
☆Identification method: The biggest feature of Dri-fit is that the fabric is delicate and soft, and has good moisture absorption properties. The best way to test is to drop a few drops of water to see how fast the fabric absorbs. Real DRI-FIT water droplets will absorb and disperse quickly, and there will be no water droplets floating on the surface of the fabric. ☆
2. Main label/washing label/hangtag/ID label
Main label
Nowadays, most clothes with functional fabrics use offset printing. This is done so as not to affect the breathability and perspiration performance of the clothes.
☆How to identify: The main mark of genuine products is generally very clear and the surface is smooth. ☆
Washing label (i.e., washing and ingredient instructions on the inside of the left side of the garment 10cm away from the feet of the shirt)
1. Domestic version of the washing label: only one page, ingredients Instructions and washing instructions are only expressed in simplified Chinese
2. The common European version of the washing label: there is only one page, and the description of the ingredients and washing instructions are expressed in three languages ??(English, French, and Spanish)
p>3. The washing label of the Japanese version: only one page, and the description of the ingredients and washing instructions are only in Japanese
4. The washing label of the European multi-country version: still three pages, with the ingredients The instructions and washing instructions are in (English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, German, Dutch, Greek, Danish, Swedish, Finnish, Russian, Czech, Polish, Hungarian, Croatian, Slovak, Slovenian, Lithuanian, Estonian, Latvian, Turkey) font representation of 22 languages.

There is a clear gap between the imitation products and the original products in terms of materials. At the same time, you can judge based on the photos of various versions of wash labels I posted above. ☆
Hang tag
Although many fakes can now make beautiful hang tags, there are many details that only genuine products can do. If you get clothes with tags, congratulations! You have another way to distinguish between true and false!
1) Look at the color number
The item number of NIKE clothing is composed of nine Arabic numerals. The first six digits are the item number and the last three digits are the color number. We can compare whether the color number marked on the clothes tag matches the actual product. If it is a fake, the color number on the tag may be different from the actual product.
Generally speaking, the color number of NIKE clothing is regular. The color number has three digits. Generally, the first number represents the color system:
0-Black and gray color system
1-White series
2-Light colors such as khaki
3-Yellow and green series
4-Blue series
5-Purple series
6-Red series
7, 8-Orange, orange series
9-None
2) Compare the item number
The item number appears in two places on the hangtag (domestic version), one is the STYLE on the barcode, and the other is the model number marked on the certificate. Compare the above two numbers with the number marked on the ID. The authentic product must be exactly the same.
ID tag
The ID tag is an ID card for identifying clothes. Different styles of ID tags are absolutely different. The ID tag contains a lot of information: date of manufacture, factory code, product classification, etc. .
☆The ID label displays two rows of information
The first row of information indicates the launch quarter (first two digits), production date (four digits, only seen in products before 2005) and factory number (Three English letters)
The second row of numbers indicates the product number, and there are six digits in a ***. ☆
Then there is the item number in the second row, which has a more complicated meaning.
Generally speaking, those starting with 1 are men’s clothing, those starting with 2 are women’s clothing, those starting with 68 are men’s clothing, and those starting with 69 are women’s clothing. The numbers that follow represent the series (listed below are rough classifications, just based on experience). The second digit is 1, 9 is the running or football series, 0, 2, 5 is the training or basic series, and 3 is the basketball series. , 4 is the tennis or GOLF series, and the item number just now means the men's clothing, training series
3. Other details
1. NIKE's #SWOOSH logo (i.e. hook-shaped trademark) , the hook tip and hook tail should be on the same horizontal line
2. Zipper. The famous zipper production company "YKK" provides it, so you can find YKK English letters on the zipper locks of zipper styles.
3. Cutting and fabric. Really excellent sportswear will place special emphasis on functionality and apply different cuts and fabrics to different parts of the body. These fakes can't do that either
ADIDAS
1. Fabric< /p>
ADIDAS summer clothes, in terms of fabrics, are mainly ClimaCool and ClimaLite
☆How to identify: Genuine fabrics are always soft and tough, and the texture is very delicate. In fact, the feeling is hard to describe. You'll know when you get a chance to feel it. You can also use the method of testing NIKE fabrics to test its perspiration effect. ☆
2. Main label/washable label/hang tag/ID label
Main label
Same as NIKE, most ADIDAS clothes of functional fabrics now have It is the main mark that uses offset printing. Just carefully observe the flatness and clarity of the main mark. If it is a region-specific version, only the dimensions of the designated region will be marked on it. If it is a multi-country version, the sizes of eight countries will be marked.
Washing label (that is, the washing and ingredient instructions on the left side of the garment 10cm away from the feet of the shirt)
☆How to identify: Look at the material of the washing label. The genuine material is smooth and silky, with clear printing and smooth edges. The factory code will be marked at the bottom of the last page of most washing machines. Please compare it with the factory code on the ID label. The two should be consistent. ☆
Hang tag
AD’s hang tag color and paper requirements are very strict. A piece of clothing generally requires 2-4 hanging tags strung together, depending on the style. There must be at least two. One is the main hang tag, which is usually black. There is also a certificate of conformity. It has the model number and other details on it. If it is a special fabric, he will also have a separate hangtag to explain.
They all use strict uniform color numbers and fonts for printing, and the paper is also very good and scratch-resistant! No wrinkles!
The following information can be read from the barcode label on the hangtag

2. Sizes from eight countries

2. Domestic version: there is only one side, with the item number and factory code from top to bottom. and production date
3. European version: the production date, item number and factory code are on the front, and the anti-counterfeiting barcode is on the reverse side
3. Other details
The main thing is to look at LOGO and Zipper
1. Adidas LOGO: The offset printed logo is smooth, flat and very delicate. If it is embroidery, there are no lines connecting the letters. There are only two dots at the top of the letter d and the letter i connected by three slashes.
2. Zipper: provided by the famous zipper production company "YKK", so the English letters YKK can be found on the zipper locks of zipper styles.
Puma mainly looks at the anti-counterfeiting label. If there is a color block, it is real, if it does not, it is fake
