Alpine Stars - Random Question

[graham22]

As above, noticed Alpine Stars SP3 Gloves being sold in Trago recently, I need to replace mine & the price there is pretty good.

Straight to the point but does anyone know if they are genuine Alpine Stars and how to tell?

Only reason I ask is on Facebook recently I have seen as set of Alpine Star replica gloves but these were obviously fake from the seam styles. Also someone selling a Monster Energy Jacket with plenty of AStar branding but the label inside showed 'Rayledo'.

Could they be seconds too? Again I ask as my ex worked for a national clothing co & a range of their seconds appeared at Trago - she could tell due to something they did with the label.

I know alot of alpinestars is now made in China for them the quality isn't quite as good on things like seams and linings
