Sure, I agree. but the flip side is the exact same. Has Guess ever officially denied it, either? just insisting that it's a replica without any proof is the exact same thing as the people who insist it's the real thing. Neither side can prove it, so why is one side more correct than the other? Why do people get so bent out of shape about it? I remember tons of these jackets in multiple color schemes and fabrics, including this pattern made by guess, available in my childhood in the 80s in south Texas. Isn't one of the arguments that this model was made by Guess in Mexico? Could be they never made too much of an import into the states from Mexico. Could also mean that it is an original 80s tailored Mexican knockoff with guess labeling, but still an original, meaning that Marty's is a knockoff and admittedly film altered guess jacket, just like this one. Maybe that's why the buttons and tags were removed for marty so they wouldn't get sued, like the Nike word on his Bruins. Which I'm still confused as to how they let the swoop slide. Different product placement rules in hollywood then, maybe. Plenty of handbags sold in New York and l.a. With all kinds of labels that aren't legit. The point is, no one can definitely shake their tiny fists and say yes or no. I like to think there is hope that it's the real deal. Keeps the fans hunting.
Speaking of of product placement, just got the hot toys marty. No swoops on his shoes. They look more like Adidas. No aiwa label, no jansport, and oddly no valterra or Madrid markings in the board. Who will save the day and make tiny labels for us?
