Check out this listing of mine, and tell me if the description is plausible: namely, if a bootlegger would scoop up lesser shirts of a particular brand and slap their own big sexy version of the logo on the back.

Adidas trefoil: real, bootleg or both?
Re: Adidas trefoil: real, bootleg or both?
plausible ...wouldn't put anything past them - but color blended jobs like that are more a pain to print - that's probably why it's thicker. If it's a screen print, they may have just used the same screen twice - put down one ink, waited for it to dry and put a second one on top. Johnny65 would know.
Maybe Adidas even did it for the same reason but it was probably manufactured like that.

Re: Adidas trefoil: real, bootleg or both?
What makes me suspicious is that the yellow/orange pattern is totally at odds with the baby blue shirt and black print: a subdued colour combo with a back logo louder than bombs? I also thought the yellow/orange colouring is pretty limited- I thought the licensed models had more colours. There's also a print defect.
