Even though there are a lot of cheats online that are selling fake designer jeans, it does not necessarily mean that you can’t find an authentic pair for a good price. If you utilize the knowledge that I gave you, I can promise you that you will purchase a pair of authentic Seven For All Mankind jeans.
If you are still not sure about a particular pair that you want to buy on eBay or on another website, you can leave a comment below and I will try my best to advise you.

Help! I really want a great pair of REAL Seven’s Jeans, and I can’t tell if this seller is hiding the fact that this pair is fake or if he/she just doesn’t know how to put decent pictures of the jeans on ebay! To me, the two pairs of jeans displayed look like two different kinds, and I’m not expert enough to know if they’re REAL!
Thanks so much!

Hi Shannon,
If you could please post more photos, as for now I’m going with fake. 7For all Mankind and 7Seven Jeans are not related in any way, also post any pocket pictures and Waist logo pictures if possible.
May 6th, 2008 at 4:57 am

I just bought a pair of seven jeans off of e-bay. When I got them I immediately noticed that the large inside tag is white and made of a stiff paper like material, not fabric. It also doesn’t have the seven logo on it, just starts out w/ the rn info. On my authentic seven jeans, the rn number info is on the back of this tag. I’m assuming these are fake, am I correct? If so, what do I do now? I’m new to e-bay and have never done a return. Any help would be appreciated!

Sarah post 71: Those look fine, however it really isn’t easy to tell unless you can turn that tag inside out too and see if the security strip is in there on the inside of that brown tag right around where it folds to make the tag like a loop. But at least they’re able to be returned if they are not authentic, which usually is a good sign for authenticity!!

Hello, I purchased a pair of Seven for All Mankind jeans on ebay and they match up to all the above even the serial number except for the inseam, I don’t see overlock stitching. Are they fake?
November 20th, 2009 at 2:09 pm
Hello,
I just bought a new pair of seven fam jeans from a store in Belgium. It’s a store that sells jeans they buy from overstock (they say). I checked it with your list and everything seems okay, exept for the style & seruak number. They are in fact printed on, but the style number seems too short and the other one too long:
style: U0017
cut #: 7003573
Could you please check if these are fake? Everything seems right, except the fact it doesn’t have ‘7 for all mankind’ printed on the back inside (which my other 7FAM’s(definitely real ones) do have), and the font on the back seems a little bit different if you look real close, especially the ‘mank’-part. On the other hand, it does have the tag that says it’s original and the tag looks real.
Thank you very much for your answer.

top of the waist part the T in boot cut doesn’t
have a line crossing the T.
June 27th, 2010 at 10:42 pm
I purchased a pair of 7 jeans directly through the seven for all mankind website, and they arrived with the tag on the waist cut. It has the top part and the bottom part, but the middle has been removed. I called 7 and was told that this particular style has the tag cut, because the jeans are slightly distressed. I feel like I got something that someone returned (and they probably bought them on ebay, so they are probably fake). I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this. I spent $200 on these jeans, and bought them direct, so I don’t know if these are legit or not. I have 6 other pairs of 7’s and have never had this problem before. Anyone have this problem?
