Hi! I'd like to ask you to help me verify the authenticity of a FP polo I just bought, I see there are a lot of experts in this forum! biggrin.gif

The one I'm refering to is the Regular M Navy/white on the pics, the Slim L black/yellow is a store-bought one I already owned. The new one doesn't have any of the typical signs of the usual fakes. But some things worry me.

First, the neck label, though correct for the model, doesn't look as good as my other polo, is smaller and kinda 'deformed' in comparison (their backsides look the same). And, most of all, the washing label has a different size, font, lower case letters and DOESN'T have the laurel watermark, the other one does. All Made in China M1200s should have those, right? The model and color code, though, is accurate as far as I can tell.

What do you think?

I've found another significant difference: the undersides of the laurels:

I'm almost convinced this is a high grade replica, like the orange one shown here a while ago
