Buying secondhand shouldn't feel like a gamble. Here's what our authenticators get asked most.
The Arc'teryx logo, based on the Archaeopteryx fossil, is embroidered or printed with fine detail in the wing and feather structure and with clean, even edges. Fakes simplify the bird into a blob, with uneven feathers and thick outlines. Placement and scale should also match the real model, so experts compare the logo with the specific jacket and season.
A genuine Arc'teryx GORE-TEX shell has neatly taped seams, laminated or welded construction in the right places and smooth, consistent fabric. Fake shells use thick, uneven seam tape, rough stitching and plasticky fabric. The GORE-TEX label and its text also need to be clear and correct for the model.
Arc'teryx often uses high-quality waterproof zips with smooth, consistent action and neat zip garages. Genuine zips glide without catching, sit flat and carry pull designs that fit the model. Fakes use generic, bulky zips that snag, with poorly finished garages and mismatched pulls. Checking each zip helps experts judge hardware quality.
Check the interior care labels, the style information and the GORE-TEX tag. Genuine labels have clear print, tidy stitching and details that fit the model and size. Counterfeits show blurry text, inconsistent fonts and wrong or missing style information. Experts match each label to the specific model and season.
Arc'teryx is popular for both outdoor use and streetwear, so fakes circulate on Vinted, Marktplaats, eBay and Grailed. Be careful when sellers avoid label and seam photos or advertise very low prices. Ask for close-ups of the logo, zips, seam tape and labels, and have them checked by a human expert.
Yes. Hang tags, receipts and packaging are copied easily, and none of them proves the jacket is genuine. The jacket's construction does. Legitique focuses on logo, seam tape, zips, labels and fabric, and delivers the verdict with four clear reasons.
