True Religion Brand Jeans uses premium denim, some of which is made in the United States. In 2009, True Religion was sold in about 900 boutiques and specialty stores in 50 countries on six continents.
Its flagship store opened in 2005, in Manhattan Beach, California. True Religion products are also sold at major department stores, including Von Maur, Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, Saks Fifth Avenue. After filing for bankruptcy in 2017, the brand closed some stores.True religion plans to change its logo in 2020.
Want to know if your new dungarees are truly True Religion? Tips to help you tell the bona fide jeans from the fakes:
True Religion sews a security tag beneath its jeans' (and T-shirts') inside label. It has a red "U" on it.
True Religion Brand Jeans general counsel Deborah Greaves says fake jeans often smell funny because of the way they're shipped to the U.S. True Religion jeans for children are made in Mexico; jeans for adults are made in the U.S.
The rivets on the front of the jeans should have "TRBJ" printed on them and the zippers should read "YKK."
In many styles of True Religion jeans, smiling Buddhas are printed on the front pocket linings. They should be neither too bright nor too faded. The pockets should contain Pellon, a thin fabric lining used for support.
If the denim seems flimsy or cheap, the jeans are probably fake, especially if they're for larger folks. True Religion doesn't make men's jeans bigger than size 38, or women's bigger than size 32 (although it once made women's jeans size 34).
If think you've found a deal that's too good to be true, it probably is. A pair of True Religion jeans for less than $100 is likely fake.
There are only a few internet shops that are allowed to sell original True Relision Jeans on the Internet. So-called fake shops sell counterfeits or buy True Religion jeans from unauthorized sources.
Note: Online shops that use the name “True Religion” in the URL (especially with another term such as “outlet”) are not authentic and sell counterfeits.
True Religion jeans feature an inside label that over the years has detailed a variety of information in a variety of different formats depending on the style.
The third label in the same inside location details further manufacturing details, style and cut codes. Check that the style names or numbers found here match those on any swing-tags or paperwork.

I just recently bought a pair off the true religion website and they came in today and they look nothing like the picture they advertised. May I send you some pictures so you can inspect them or something?
-
Thank you for making this video ! But It’s really hard to tell nowadays because there are new tags and labels. Do you know if the blue and red waist label are real ?
-
2:19 The one you claimed to be original jeans (the one with the American flag) looks fake too. Pay attention to the inside label logo. It looks more like the Ghostbuster due to lack of details.
-
Are you still able to authenticate? I have a pair given to me to sell and I’m having trouble confirming for sure
-
