Hello! I recently found these tees at my local Goodwill. I've been doing vintage for the past 8 years so I am pretty confident in my ability to tell real from fake. I've done a few hours of my own research, but I am not an expert on Nirvana tees so I'd like to get some more eyes on these. Let me know if more pics are needed! Thanks in advance :D

They look good from here. I have not seen a time warner Giant fake variant.

Because it's sewn in - I would double check the measurements are on par with other shirts with this tag. There are lots of legitimate reasons for sewn-in tags, but now counterfeiters are exploiting them.

The In Utero also looks okay with a tag-only-based look.

There have been several new fake versions of that more generic Giant tag, but yours looks like the real deal, you can see them here:
