I also have a Mitchell & Ness hat made in Vietnam and it's 100% authentic. Typically, Vietnam quality is better than products made in China or Bangladesh.
In your opinion do you think new era snapbacks are better or Mitchell and ness? also saw a wallpost on your Facebook page and some guy says that you sell "bomber jackets" , just wondering , is he talking about like a letterman/varsity jacket (with the wool body and the leather sleeves etc) because if you're selling good quality letterman jackets I'd like to know how much you're selling them for, thanks
The "authentic" one costs $24, not $200. It doesn't have a collector's value. It's not made in the USA; both are made in sweatshops in Asia. If one guy pays $24 for his Giants hat, and another guy pays 3 or 4 bucks a pop for his Giants hat, and to tell the difference you have to take them off and compare a dozen different points of quality against a snapback expert's reference, then which guy is the chump?
It's ridiculous really, its a cap, something you put on your head. I've had original New Eras since I was a teen and a fake one I got in Thailand. The fake one cost me 4 bucks and I use it as a knockaround, 3 years later it still looks presentable no damages. The notion that all fakes are crap is a myth, still depends on the quality of the fakes and there are really good quality fakes out there. If I see something i like I would get it regardless of fake or authentic. Get one that fits your budget, If you're fit and know how to dress it wouldn't matter.
Just bought a chargers Mitchell & ness SnapBack. It's got all the characteristics of an authentic however on the bottom of the bill it's not green :/ is it considered fake?
Just because its made in Vietnam doesn't mean there fake...And with the air holes some Mitchell and ness snapbacks are made of another material causing it to go stringy
Loving that Giants Hat! Fake snapbacks have a weird shape to them, the brim is typically very thick , colors are usually off, they fit funny, and the stitching is complete garbage. People are always saying "The stitching doesn't bother me." but once your shit starts falling apart, you want to get mad at the seller lol. Fake Jerseys, sneakers, and snapbacks have horrible stitching and that's a sign it's not going to last after a few wears.
Hey i have a qeustion and i hope you can give me a reply :) I bought a toronto raptors cap by mitchell & Ness. I'ts deffo a legit hat i bought it from a legit source and all the stuff you showed here is on my hat aswell but my problem is, the circle sticker ontop/front of the hat that shows its real is really lose since i unboxed my hat. Does this occur more and what should i do with it?
Hey, i bought mine from the mitchell and ness website, but mine says made in vietnam.....all the stitchings looks good! so is mine fake...im confuse..0.o
I got a boston celtics snapback and im wondering if its real or not, the word boston has the stitching joined, it has a grey underbrim, its by mitchell and ness, the writing inside it is white, it has a little mnn ingravement in the centre of the cap, the tag doesnt stick out and the words boston celtics and the logo cannot be seen from the inside, so can someone help me and tell me if its real or fake ?
Mine says made in China yet everything else is perfect on it i bought it from a real website that has been adversised on youtube so i highly doubt its fake and if you guys can clear that up it would help
My Saints snapback is all perfect. Good stitching, stitichin on the back,square,but my tag says made in Vietnam but it is all stiched perfectly. Is it fake if its from Vietnam?
my mitchell and ness raider snapback is vintage and has white writing on the inside that says nostalgia co. philidelphia, pa mitchell and ness. is it real?
Good video on the education of boot products. If you really want a M&N hat, just buy one from their website or in person at the Philadelphia flagship store.
+Will Esco Yes. I just bought a hat from the Mitchell and Ness store in Philly, and it has white writing and it says made in Vietnam so they may have a few different sweatshops and also use different colors for inside writing. but the other things he said was valid.
@SouthCalifas619 If you saw their update video, he said that they ARE also made in Vietname, so you have nothing to worry about as long as it has the square bill, stiching of the logo on the inside, and the trademark sign on the bottom of the button.
These Fake vs. Real videos are actually helping fakes more closer to the real ones.. your best bet is just to buy it from an authorized dealer.. I went to the flea market ( some guy was selling fakes.. ) and the fakes had almost every detail you encountered gone..
one thing he didnt mention is most fake snapbacks may look good at first but because the material is shit within 2 weeks the stitching may start to come loose, the colour may fade but most of all the brim of the hat does not stay straight.
Official Mitchell & Ness snapback hats that are really worth it are usually made in Bangladesh while most fakes are made in China or some fakes are in Vietnam.
This guy is completely right, ECCEPT for the vietnam part, mitchell & ness snapbacks are made in Bangladesh AND Vietnam so don't worry if that's the only reason why you think yours is fake.
Does the yellow writing on the inside only apply to that particular Giants snapback? Because I got a Jets snapback directly from the M&S site (so theoretically it's got to be real, right?) and it has white writing, not yellow. Unless my eyes have gone bad, but it looks white to me.
All of my Mitchell & Ness are from Bangladesh. But I got a new snapback in the mail today and it's from Vietnam. I sat down and compared the two and they both was authentic with sewing, tags, stickers, bar codes, air holes, shape of the hat and the shape of the brim. People liked the Vietnam snapback more than the Bangladesh snapback. If that's the case then I have a perfect knockoff snapback cus I would be a fool to throw that shit in the garbage!!!
I bought a New York giants snap from zumiez, I checked it while watching this video(was curious) and it said that it was made in Vietnam, does that mean zumiez sold me a fake?
I don't understand. I have a Mitchell and Ness that I just picked up recently. It has EVERYTHING else, including the button with the logo on it, the flawless stitching and you can see the letters on the inside. The only thing that's really off is that it says it's from Vietnam. I picked this up from a store, btw.
You missed another thing, the Brim on the fakes be Rounded. when they should be squared off. Thats why I only buy mitchell and ness for the square brims.
This dude is a little to harsh on this "Fake" thing. Theres nothin wrong with gettin a replica or knock-off, just as long the seller tells you that it is a knock-off or thats what your looking for
Yo guys I bought a Pistons script M&N, It has a yellow writing on the inside, it has the MNM logo on the pin inside, it came with a tag on the brim.the button on top is perfectly on the center, i can see the stitching in the inside, but theres no lines on the snap ( 2:06 ). Does that mean its FAKE? Sorry but its my first Mitchell and ness hat, I didn't have the problem with fitted New Eras
I recently bought 2 Mitchell and ness laker snapbacks from the mitchell and ness website and they were both made in vietnam.
#metoo
HOW ABOUT MADE IN BANGLADESH?
I also have a Mitchell & Ness hat made in Vietnam and it's 100% authentic.
Typically, Vietnam quality is better than products made in China or Bangladesh.
In your opinion do you think new era snapbacks are better or Mitchell and ness?
also saw a wallpost on your Facebook page and some guy says that you sell "bomber jackets" , just wondering , is he talking about like a letterman/varsity jacket (with the wool body and the leather sleeves etc) because if you're selling good quality letterman jackets I'd like to know how much you're selling them for, thanks
nope, in fact a lot of companies are starting not to have the color green
honestly if the fake ones didn't have a round brim i would wear them, and a lot of you can say you wouldn't but we all know we would
5:21 "Be my guest, you're wearing a piece of shit on your head" LOOOL
The "authentic" one costs $24, not $200. It doesn't have a collector's value. It's not made in the USA; both are made in sweatshops in Asia. If one guy pays $24 for his Giants hat, and another guy pays 3 or 4 bucks a pop for his Giants hat, and to tell the difference you have to take them off and compare a dozen different points of quality against a snapback expert's reference, then which guy is the chump?
the one who pays 24
The chump is the one who bought a fake ass whack product knowing full well it was fake when he bought it.
It's ridiculous really, its a cap, something you put on your head. I've had original New Eras since I was a teen and a fake one I got in Thailand.

I bought one and it has everything that the real one does but the under brim is grey not green so real or fake?
Just because its made in Vietnam doesn't mean there fake...And with the air holes some Mitchell and ness snapbacks are made of another material causing it to go stringy
Loving that Giants Hat!

Where did you say you can get the fake mitchell&ness snaps ?
Why is there dislikes? Good job for helping out people point out the fakes!
I had not idea, fake M&N hats existed. I'm glad I've bought all mine from their site.

I bought a toronto raptors cap by mitchell & Ness.
I'ts deffo a legit hat i bought it from a legit source and all the stuff you showed here is on my hat aswell but my problem is, the circle sticker ontop/front of the hat that shows its real is really lose since i unboxed my hat. Does this occur more and what should i do with it?
Also looked like the fake one had a rounded brim and the real one was squared off. MN NEVER has round brims, ever
Hey, i bought mine from the mitchell and ness website, but mine says made in vietnam.....all the stitchings looks good! so is mine fake...im confuse..0.o
another big thing is that on replicas the sticker ontop of the brim is a reflective sticker and the authentic ones are a solid colour
what is the team you purchased?
were did you get the fake from?
its in there description but why not just order from the official website of mitchell & Ness ??
I got a boston celtics snapback and im wondering if its real or not, the word boston has the stitching joined, it has a grey underbrim, its by mitchell and ness, the writing inside it is white, it has a little mnn ingravement in the centre of the cap, the tag doesnt stick out and the words boston celtics and the logo cannot be seen from the inside, so can someone help me and tell me if its real or fake ?
He's just informing us on how the fake ones compare to the real ones!
Mine says made in China yet everything else is perfect on it i bought it from a real website that has been adversised on youtube so i highly doubt its fake and if you guys can clear that up it would help
And what is your website?
My Saints snapback is all perfect. Good stitching, stitichin on the back,square,but my tag says made in Vietnam but it is all stiched perfectly. Is it fake if its from Vietnam?
my mitchell and ness raider snapback is vintage and has white writing on the inside that says nostalgia co. philidelphia, pa mitchell and ness. is it real?
to me it matters it makes me feel more comfortable and it keeps the swag clean
if a mitchell and ness snapback design is a a little messed does that count as a fake?
And ur a Bitch.
my stomache seriously starts hurtin everytime I see a fake hat
Any tips on starting a company for selling hats?
perfect video..Soo many fakes at sports stores trying to pass as authentic.
This video is 11 years old. Has the bootleg improved and caught up with their "craft"?
just curious but why does it matter if there real ot not? they still look the same
mitchell and ness is by far the best snapback and best sporting goods maker out of any company... They are the GUCCI of sports clothing. TRUST ME!
What if everything you said in this video was on a real snapback but it was made in chinad under the mitchell and ness tage
Not only Bangladesh, I ve got 4 M&N hats from China, and this ones are legit for shure.
It's bad enough that you get a non vintage snap. But if you get a fake non vintage one, then that's just funny.
how did you get em for less than $16???
Good video on the education of boot products. If you really want a M&N hat, just buy one from their website or in person at the Philadelphia flagship store.
thanks bro now i know how to tell if my snapback is real or fake good video
what hat are you wearing?
Yea got a question does it have to be yellow words on the inside to be real or can it be white??
+Will Esco Yes. I just bought a hat from the Mitchell and Ness store in Philly, and it has white writing and it says made in Vietnam so they may have a few different sweatshops and also use different colors for inside writing. but the other things he said was valid.
is an authentic mitchell & ness always green colored on the bottom part of the brim?
Most have green underneath, but some have silver or there team colors. some even have designs on them (the underbrim)
oh thnks fr th info
your welcome bro
It's real
How much is a Mitchell an ness original cap in the usa???
usually around 20-30 dollars.
@SouthCalifas619 If you saw their update video, he said that they ARE also made in Vietname, so you have nothing to worry about as long as it has the square bill, stiching of the logo on the inside, and the trademark sign on the bottom of the button.

is a snapback fake if it doesnt have a green under bill.
one thing he didnt mention is most fake snapbacks may look good at first but because the material is shit within 2 weeks the stitching may start to come loose, the colour may fade but most of all the brim of the hat does not stay straight.
Official Mitchell & Ness snapback hats that are really worth it are usually made in Bangladesh while most fakes are made in China or some fakes are in Vietnam.
I'm glad I have no fake hats man..
I have what I think is genuine cap that's made in Vietnam. Everything looks genuine, mine even has Lakers graphic under the brim and a velcro snap.
The fake doesn't look bad though TBH
I got one from chapel street, not sure which shop sorry but THANK GOD mine is showing all signs of authenticity! Thanks foe clarifying for me :)
This guy is completely right, ECCEPT for the vietnam part, mitchell & ness snapbacks are made in Bangladesh AND Vietnam so don't worry if that's the only reason why you think yours is fake.
Thanks for the vid, now I know I bought a fake Mitchell & Ness snapbacks :(
Mine is from the official site and says made in Vietnam...probably have several factories in Asia.
Does the yellow writing on the inside only apply to that particular Giants snapback? Because I got a Jets snapback directly from the M&S site (so theoretically it's got to be real, right?) and it has white writing, not yellow.
Unless my eyes have gone bad, but it looks white to me.
so is it a real mitchell and ness snapback?
Thankyou sir im a newbie but now inkow how to observe fake and real
Are there fake 47 brand snapbacks to ?
All of my Mitchell & Ness are from Bangladesh. But I got a new snapback in the mail today and it's from Vietnam. I sat down and compared the two and they both was authentic with sewing, tags, stickers, bar codes, air holes, shape of the hat and the shape of the brim. People liked the Vietnam snapback more than the Bangladesh snapback. If that's the case then I have a perfect knockoff snapback cus I would be a fool to throw that shit in the garbage!!!
Thanks! Now I know where buy best hats!
I bought a New York giants snap from zumiez, I checked it while watching this video(was curious) and it said that it was made in Vietnam, does that mean zumiez sold me a fake?
my hats weird it has the tag inside but it says its made in vietnam?
I don't understand. I have a Mitchell and Ness that I just picked up recently. It has EVERYTHING else, including the button with the logo on it, the flawless stitching and you can see the letters on the inside. The only thing that's really off is that it says it's from Vietnam.

You missed another thing, the Brim on the fakes be Rounded. when they should be squared off. Thats why I only buy mitchell and ness for the square brims.
Hey bro thanks, I just realized two of my M&N snapbacks are fake :/. Now I know better!! I'll be buying from yall
the shape of the bill is also a give away, a circular bill is fake, a rectangular one is real
Whatss The Website To By The Real Mitchell And Ness Snapbacks?!!
The "authentic" Mitchel & Ness is a remake of Sports Specialties hat and thus also a "Fake"
Real or Fake?
in my school that what everyone does. it's like a school routine.
Thanx for the tips bro. I jus brought a fake. My first mitchell and ness. Now i know cheers
Thanks for this, Im happy to report my Mitchell and Ness snapback is authentic in my opinion. That made in Bangladesh thing was reassuring for sure.
Where can u get a fake mitchell amd mes for like 5 to 10$ ?
why didn't u mention the shape of the brim?
Where do you even buy fake caps?
This dude is a little to harsh on this "Fake" thing. Theres nothin wrong with gettin a replica or knock-off, just as long the seller tells you that it is a knock-off or thats what your looking for
So if it says ''Made In Vietnam'' Is It Fake??
why did u not just show the MNM button thing at the start.....that wud of made it so much clearer
Yo guys I bought a Pistons script M&N, It has a yellow writing on the inside, it has the MNM logo on the pin inside, it came with a tag on the brim.the button on top is perfectly on the center, i can see the stitching in the inside, but theres no lines on the snap ( 2:06 ). Does that mean its FAKE? Sorry but its my first Mitchell and ness hat, I didn't have the problem with fitted New Eras
i dont know , but those fake Snapbacks become ugly fast, they just look so good a few days
