Bitch Please… FAKE Iron Heart?

^Listing of a tshirt: http://goo.gl/KjEF6c

Listing is gone. Maybe I'm wrong? That just didn't look real to me. The ink on the tag was all black and there appeared to be two tags as well.

Ah. Well I was wrong!
-
A Facebook group for buying fake Iron Heart and Samurai jeans
-
It's based in Malaysia and Thailand, so copyright infringement is virtually none existent out there.
G, I've applied to join and will commence shitting once approved
-
Going for a world record ban

still wondering (I don't do FB) if it is not possible to hold FB accountable and coerce them to shut stuff like this down….
That's kinda what I was thinking. I know you can report things like posts but idk about whole groups
Edit: I just reported the group but the only category I could put them in was scam/spam
Tilmann is a member, can you share some light on this group?
-
I'm not sure if the group was originally set up for fans of Samurai jeans or not, but it is now full of Malaysian and Thai fake sellers.
I've been approved, so as soon as I've finished vacuuming my stairs (picture the Queen video for "I want to break free"), I'll be in there.

Done…
_**Guys,
I can't help but notice that there are so many posts in this group selling fake jeans by brands such as Samurai and Iron Heart, what the hell is all that about?
I know many of the people responsible for producing the real jeans personally and I know how passionate they are about their product. These are not corporations like Nike or Levis, they are real people investing their own time and money into making great products for REAL denim heads to enjoy.
For the manufacturers and sellers of this crap. If you have the means to make selvedge denim jeans, and you can do it ethically without sweatshop labour, then why not do something original? Make your own brand doing something really cool instead of ripping off other peoples hard work. I have seen Malaysian denim from Cheese and Ceremony and it's really good, so why not work hard to make Malaysian denim known for its quality and originality? I've also seen some Thai denim made for a friend of mine, which was also great.
For the buyers of this rip off wear, what are you doing? This does not make you a denim head it makes you a jerk who is paying to have other peoples ideas stolen. Buy the real thing, if it's too expensive just save for a while longer or buy denim by real brands that you can afford.
This needs to stop guys, fake goods help nobody other than those selling them. Almost certainly not the guys making them and definitely not the guys buying them.
