Post by Johnmcwilliams »

Haven’t no idea to legitimate this shirt,
I’ve send as zoomed on the print, and that’s double stitched at all

Can anyone help me?…

These ones are tricky.

What is the pit to pit in inches?

There seem to be a number of different versions of this print, that are boots and there's a legit Winterland version where it says the name of the photographer under the photo:

Jean Baptiste Mondino

Perhaps there's a legit BSP version too, but it's lessor seen, similar to the Alice In Chains tee.

I have not seen a faked white BSP tag YET.

I initially thought it was odd that it has L AND XL as the size. Not sure what the explanation for that is, I'm going to reach out to my contact who used to own the company and see if he can shed any light on it. But that appears to be consistent, I found other BSP tees with white tags like that, with two sizes listed, S and M. On other fake tags, counterfeiters have made errors like that. But it would be unlikely there's a sudden influx of white fake BSP tags that have flown under our radar...but who knows!

I did find an example here, which is double-stitched too:

Yes, that’s tricky and someone say it's FAKE, but just want to know scientifically or legitimately here..😅🫠
I've shown more photos of the measurements and stitching detail from the back seam tag stitches

I just emailed the former CEO of BSP to ask about the tag sizes and confirm they did Bjork.

What unit of measurement is that? 15 chest?

Does yours match 21.5" Inches?

I don't see any evidence of tag tampering.

The one I linked is also double/double.

Scout around and see if you can find other BSP white tagged t-shirts with double double.

I appreciated all your help, Jimmy!

So yeah the shirt is like near deadstock and also for measurements is 15”x19-20” or 50x65 in centimeters
and also double/double.

When I tried to match the details my bjork on the website it also similar looks like

Sooooooooooo it can't be 15 inches.

50 CM = 19.5 Inches.

That's much less than this BSP L XL combo.

But maybe the company put two sizes on each white tag, to save some money? Weird.

Yeah that’s weird about the measurements,
I'm still waiting for the results of the BSP CEO’s reply to explain whether they did Bjork
