Fake Paramo Clothing ?

[taxboy]

Has anyone come across or seen reports of fake Paramo gear. I had a quick Internet search but not really turned up anything relevant. The reason I ask is recently there appears to be several new jackets all at very reasonable prices appearing on eBay.

I'm guessing any manufacturer may be subject to copying and I'm aware of fake North Face, Berghaus etc but wondered if Paramo was a bit too niche

I am pretty sure the vast majority of this sort of clothing is fake, fakers are very good at what they do even down to hang tags and labels.

Paramo’s factory seconds store is on Ebay. But I’m sure you’re aware of this anyway.

Thanks for this the one's I've noticed were new with tags rather than the Paramo outlet store. Just wondered if anyone had encountered counterfeit Paramo or even reports of it

Could also be staff abusing their discounted rates?

Worked for a clothing brand in a previous life and discounted main lines and super low price warehouse clearing was a thing. Of course reselling for profit was a disceplinery offence, but that didn't stop one person running a market stall..

Not paramo but I got a brand new superb jacket at our local market the other day , winter coat fleece lined ,camouflage ,waterproof etc my size usually xxxL made for snowboarding I think and cost me the silly price of £10 . The stall holder said they buy them in bulk
