    Just after some advice really – Looking to purchase a Northface jacket and have come across a website called

    http://www.northfaceukoutlet.org.uk/

    How do I know whether they are genuine Northface kit or not some knock off stuff?

    Has anyone used this company before or could recommend a genuine online retailer

    Cheers

    That looks properly dodgy to me – no address/contact details and none of the jacket styles are named, just listed as ‘Style 1’, ‘Style 2’ etc….

    I’m only viewing on a phone, but I can’t see a phone number or address. Some of the text in the shipping section looks odd too and for that reason I’m out!

    well they’re breaking uk law by having no bricks and mortar address on their site.

    Thanks for the advice funnily enough I found another site which had exactly the same wording on shipping/returns etc

    So will give that place a miss and look elsewhere

    Thanks

    Dodgy! They wouldn’t be getting a penny of my money. I particularly like the top of the contact us page:

    Happy shopping! If you have any question about the pay, please contact us!

    On the shipping page, if you hover over the ems link it shows. ems.com.cn so definitely a Chinese fake site.

    Do trading standards or someone haver a way of reporting these sites now?

    Give these guys a try, 100% genuine Northface dealer. Working class heroes The shops in my home town of Ulverston, bought a few things off him myself, infact he ordered me something from Northface last week and it came in 2-3 days, he also sells on Ebay. Give him a shout and see what he an do for you.

    I don’t think it matters.

    Even if it’s ‘real’ it will be crap anyway. 🙂
