Vintage T-Shirt Forum & Community Authentication Appraisals

Hi there! I wanted to ask you about this beautiful Kanye West 2008 Takashi Murakami Tee if it's legit or not. Thanks a lot in advance!

These are a bit out of our wheelhouse, since not yet vintage. But good idea to have it checked, since we have spotted a ton of fakes.

I can't even find one exactly like this, where did you get it?

This one on Grailed is the best match, which they have authenticated (I could go on a rant about that process) - but yours has a plastic-y print on the front?

Yeah, I do have a kinda plastic front print on it. Found it on the thrift store.

It's very strange but it feels like that they made the front print via press machine(thermal printing) and the back print was made via screen printing machine. Also, my potential buyer is doubting about the tag like I have a FOTL one and the rest of the tees have only Gildan...
