Arc'teryx itself warns that a few models, including Gamma, Cerium, Thorium and Atom pieces, are copied closely enough to need expert analysis. Our Arc'teryx authentication service checks the bird logo embroidery, care tag, zippers and sliders, seam tape and Velcro tabs on jackets, hoodies, pants and packs. The tag says which references to use, and the construction says if it is real.

What we check on Arc'teryx
How to tell a real Arc'teryx from a fake
The care tag is often the clearest Arc'teryx tell. Genuine tags print the model code, a second number and the month and year with spaced dashes, which the fakes in our guide run together.
01
Care tag
Model code, garment name and the date line with spaced dashes, plus clean, correctly spelled print.
02
Bird logo
Embroidery density, the shape of the bird and the spelling of Arc'teryx, apostrophe included.
03
Zippers and sliders
YKK or Vislon zippers with color-matched sliders, and how the pulls are finished.
04
Seam tape
Narrow, pliable tape applied cleanly along the seams of waterproof shells.
05
Velcro tabs
Tapered shape and soft material, with no rubberized or decorated tabs.
06
Fabric markings
Print quality and spacing of the GORE-TEX marking and other fabric labels.
07
Hangtags
Branded tags that match the model and are consistent with the rest of the piece.
Authenticated. For Charity.

Not on its own. Arc'teryx says every genuine product has a white label in the main front pocket or around the inner waist, and on most pieces its model number follows a sequence like ####-#####-MM/YY. Some recent labels add a QR code. A code can be copied onto a counterfeit tag, so a scan is one checkpoint. We use the label to pull the right references, then check the logo, tag print, zippers and seam tape.
Find the line with the model code, a second number and a month and year. On genuine tags they are separated by spaced dashes. The fakes in our guide run that line together, repeat the model code or misspell the model name. Heavy print and shiny tag fabric are warning signs too.
Arc'teryx names the Gamma MX and Gamma LT, the Cerium LT, the Thorium AR and the Atom AR Hoody as close copies that often need expert analysis. We authenticate those and any other Arc'teryx jacket, pants, fleece or pack from your photos.
Only outlet.arcteryx.com. Arc'teryx says any other website with sale, outlet or clearance in its domain is fraudulent. If you bought from another site or a marketplace listing, upload photos of the piece and its care tag and we check it against verified references.
Yes. Ask the seller for photos of the bird logo, the care tag straight on, the zippers and sliders, the seam tape inside and the full front and back. Upload them before you pay and a professional authenticator gives you a verdict, Authentic or Fake.
Yes. Logos, labels and tags can differ by era, so an older piece is compared with references from the same period. Include a clear photo of the care tag, since the model code and date line tell us which references apply.
For the most accurate and quick authentication process, we advise you to upload clear photos of the areas visible when clicking 'Upload photos' on this page. We quickly determine if the uploaded photo meets our criteria. If your photos do not meet the criteria, you will receive a request for more and/or clearer photos. Check out Photo Instructions to find clear examples for each detail.
