Quick note: Balmain uses both YKK and Lampo zippers on their jeans. The nicer models have Lampo tank zippers that are nickle plated; on the back of the pull tab they will either say Lampo/Lampo Italy (older models) or Balmain Paris (newer models). The mass produced models have YKK zippers that are make to resemble the Lampo tank zippers; their plating is inferior, and on the back they just say YKK. So authentic Balmain jeans (balmain in general) can have either YKK or Lampo zippers; the model pictured in this video has YKK zippers. The zippers will always be consistent, either all Lampo or all YKK; Balmain does not mix and match on the same piece. Most of their models use YKK zippers today, the Lampos are saved for their jackets and limited bottoms. If you have a pair of Balmain and the zippers are blank or say anything other than the aforementioned, they are FAKE.

Love the content fam! Ya keep reviewing the stuff not many are!

Subscribed! Continue making real v fake items. This is definitely a good channel. Will recommend it in my fb group.

The differences aren't that major and I'm sure if you bought the reps people ain't gonna come up to you and give a legit check with that being said if I'm paying top dollar for the real pair I'm glad this channel is here so people who want the real deal are sure the aren't getting fakes

Thanks it's helpful And may I know the background music?? it's really amazing

One thing I've spotted often is the shape of the Biker Ribbing above the knees, with the Legit pairs having a sharper angle as they approach the inside of the thighs just above the knees, its more angular and clean; the panel closely resembles a triangle. Whereas the biker panels on the Reps are often larger and aren't as angular, sharp/sharp as the real ones; they also look more like a slightly warped rhombus as opposed to the triangle. Another note, the biker panels on Balmain jeans are always just above the knees when you wear them, whereas the biker panels on Reps often are lower while the 'knees' often hang lower than kneecap near the tops of your shins. You used to be able to tell them apart simply by the biker rib stitching alone, Reps used to be wavy as sh*t and not uniform at all, whereas the Balmains were uniform and straight as an arrow. Now you gotta keep your eyes out for other giveaways seeing as the Knockoff market figured out how ti do good Pin-tuck stitching.

my mans gets the authentics in the wrong size just to do a side by side really appreciate it

Also all the hook and eye closures aren’t all stamped with “waiste fastener” on authentics. And the silver also wears over time and the hardware breaks on authentics I been wearing balmain since 2011 and most of all my jeans are “made in Italy” with the exception of my baby lambskin Moto trousers(bought those from balmain in Paris) those said made in turkey and my all white denim pair which was my most recent pair I bought a few yrs ago that says “made in Japan”(got those from Barney’s) I’ve only ever bought balmain denim from Barney’s and balmain flagship in Paris. Your specs with the waist logo label were on point. I wish they woulda kept it that way and not this new hard panel logo

The wash on the jeans is beautiful!

Do all Balmain Jeans have 3 belt loops in the back middle or only Some?

The name of Background music, pls? Many thanks!

Keep up the good work!

whats the beat in the background bruv?

What's the name of the background music?

Honestly, appreciate educating us on buying authentic goods. Literally saving lives(fashionably).👌🤣

good vid it would be cool if u can make some designers belts reviews thx.

It's always great to see comparison videos like these. where INTENTIONAL replica buyers can become aware that they're not getting away with the same product for much cheaper, they're getting a lousy copy that will look ridiculous once it's compared to the real deal.

just wondering I seen the Balmain jeans has 3 loops in the back would the knock off have that as well.

What stores can I find this brand in

How much would you sell the real balmain for

Thanks for the video!

Where you get the Replicas ??

I never knew that these was them jeans I have 2 pairs of jeans that look just like them but they are smoke rise jeans

If it’s made in Japan but everything else is on point, is I.T fake ?

can you do one about Robin jeans and true religion jeans

What is the site??

im rockin h&m's 😂😂

Can you do Real vs Fake on some SLP denim?

This is a good legit check video.

It's only one tag in the jeans I have a pair with the balmain pairs Tag right above the lower back . No writing on the waist buckles

NEW UPDATE- HOW TO SPOT FAKE BALMAIN T-SHIRTS: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d9l-l7WrvMi5kok.html

I have been to a lot of clubs, malls public events. An I personally have never stopped an look at someone's jeans an said "wonder what kind of jeans are those". Most of the time no one can even tell what type of jeans anyone has on cause jeans don't have that much branding. But hey I wouldn't be buy reps if I couldn't afford the real thing.

does all balmain has the zipper on the back pocket?

instrumental?

Are there japanese balmain jeans? Made in japan?

Sick, hope you gone do one about dsquared2 jeans & shirts. Respect 👊🏾

Do tom ford

I hope you returned the fakes I appreciate what your doing on this channel it helps people and it's interesting

what site online can I order the real ones ?

I have both biege and wax black they’re the balmain x hm is the quality any different? Also I got both pairs for $160 total lol but I don’t there’s any reps of that collab.

This only shows u how to tell by all the tiny details like tags and shit but u can tell just by the look of them like the wash on the fakes looks less realistic and the rib panels are longer and the ribs ain't straight which is a dead giveaway the knee stitches are straighter on the fakes and they are 2d whereas on the real ones they are stitched in a way that the knee panel isn't flat it points out so that your knee fits in it better and so u can bend your leg better also shit like the pocket shape as well

But why are the jeans made in Japan ? If they are made from Italy there fake? I thought they all came from France Just questions

great!

I like the fake colors fades more

Didn't one say Made in Italy while the other said Made in Japan on the tag? You didn't say anything about that.

If you can't spot fake jeans from a mile away, you probably shouldn't be buying designer jeans.

got a pair for like $70 has everything the legit ones do that you are showing me

I thought my stuff was fake

I love my balmains

I have pair with white label inside 🤔😏

Balmains we’re hard af until stores started with the knockoff versions.

i like the wash on the fakes better. lol. the real Balmain jeans always look so boring to me.

no balmains to be found on your instagram from this time period. wtf

Fuck got some fake shit man. Thanks for this video. much love homie.

I’m gonna fucking expose this one kid at my school so hard.

I love Balmain!

Its a pair of jeans?

How are u gonna spend 80 any pair of jeans real or fake and them still be shit

Well this proves mine are real

Lots of fake hypebeast stuff that people would love to see. Supreme/Bape Hoodies are very common fakes and very popular.

Can I buy the real balmain off of you ?

The left ones look better 🚤

WTF would you want a pair of jeans that cost almost a G? Shit i guess thats why im not rich lol

it dont even matter how is jeans fake LOLOL idc ill rock the shit out them fake ones

if the back don't have zippers does dat mean they fake? somebody tell me cause my og paid 785$ fa mine but they only got zippers on the front

KnoIcE

Just get rock stars

The replica is horrific

Personally I see the slight difference but who cares really? It's your money...spend it how you want too

Oh shit, I found my Balmains on a Chinese website for $30. I didn't even know what Balmains were until after - i just picked them because I liked the style. Mine have the silver zipper. They may be fake, but who cares? As long as I like the way they look at fit, with the added bonus that the tag says Balmain and that no one would be able to tell the difference by looking, who cares?

No lie the fakes look better

your reviewing 2 different types of balmains so obvi ur gonna see different but ion know.. stick to the authentic pair brother

I whatching somtimes by Amazon for this jeans..but Not for Order, only for fun. How stupid are people

what acceptance speech you looking for

Hi what's your Instagram name 👍

I hate when ppl call them "Ball mane" 😂 well that's how its pronounced but yeah it gets me so mad

Who cares

£80 is a fair amount for a pair of jeans considering they're fake haha you could get a pair of genuin true religions for half that on ebay ahaha

ridiculous video

These look like fucking discount jeans they sell at Ross this is what's popular ? Lol

Shouldn't you be Helping your friends in África?
