Blz: Rip it good

I've always wondered how one can distinguish between fake and designer clothing, especially when shabby workmanship accompanies the high price of what one sees in the stores.

If it looks like a name brand, feels like a name brand and has all the trademarks of a name brand except the high price, it's probably a fake. Hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of counterfeit clothing have been seized by Belize Customs officials, working in collaboration with U.S. based manufacturers of the real thing. According to a release from the United States Embassy, six hundred thousand Belize dollars worth of fake Levi's, Dockers, and Tommy Hilfiger threads was stopped at the customs main compound exactly one week ago.
