What Genuine AllSaints Looks Like, and Why a Label Alone Is Not Enough
Searches for "AllSaints real vs fake" mostly come from people holding a leather biker jacket, a knit or a pair of boots bought secondhand, and the first thing they check is the label. That is a sensible start, but it settles less than it seems to. In our records, genuine AllSaints pieces carry a consistent set of label formats, and the items we have graded as counterfeit show the same formats. Fakes copy labels, so a neat "ALLSAINTS" neck label, a care ribbon with the usual registration numbers and a style line on the ribbon prove nothing on their own.
What does help is knowing how all the marks fit together on one garment: the neck label, the care ribbon, the zip, the hangtag and the construction. This guide walks through each as genuine pieces show them, so you can compare your own item against a verified example and see whether the details agree with each other.
Worth knowing
This guide is built from verified genuine AllSaints examples: leather jackets, knitwear, T-shirts and suede boots. We have not yet confirmed a repeatable difference that separates counterfeit AllSaints from genuine, so we are not publishing red flags or a real-vs-fake comparison table. When we do, this guide will be upgraded. Until then, use it to learn what genuine labels, hardware and materials look like. It does not cover every AllSaints product, such as dresses, jeans and bags, and AllSaints has changed its labels over the years, so a label that differs from the ones below is not a verdict by itself.
The Neck Label
On the leather jackets in our records the neck label is a small stitched leather patch, embossed with "ALLSAINTS" in widely spaced capitals, then the size, then a "Made in" line. The size reads in words ("MEDIUM") on one jacket and as a UK, US and EU trio ("UK 16 US 12 EU 44") on another. The patch is stitched square to the lining with a neat row of fine stitches, and the embossing is crisp and even.
Knitwear and jersey use a woven label instead. On the crew-neck knit in our records the label reads "ALLSAINTS" with the size beneath, and a second, narrower woven tag reading "ITALIAN YARN" sits under it. A black woven label with "ALLSAINTS" and "X-LARGE" appears on a cotton waffle-knit crew. The T-shirt in our records has the name and fit ("OVERSIZED FIT", "LARGE") printed on the inside neck. Which format you find depends on the product type, and none of them is the one correct label.
"Made in" lines vary by item. The leather jackets in our records read "Made in India" on the patch, and the T-shirt we pulled reads "Made in Portugal" on its care label. Where a piece was made is a plain fact about that piece, and the country on its own tells you nothing about whether it is genuine.
The Care Ribbon and the Style Line
On the biker jackets the care label is a long black ribbon in the side seam. Reading down it on a genuine Milo biker jacket: "ALLSAINTS", "RN 128793" and "CA 58080", "ALLSAINTS.COM", the style name ("MILO BIKER"), a short style code ("ML025N"), a year and month ("2022 04"), a block of wash symbols, the materials ("Shell: 100% lamb leather", lining recycled polyester) and care text in English and French. The size is on a separate section of the same ribbon, in several languages.
The T-shirt label in our records has the same skeleton: "ALLSAINTS", "RN 128793", "CA 58080", "ALLSAINTS.COM", then a style name ("SKIES SS CREW") and code ("MG039M"). The registration numbers are identical on the jacket and the T-shirt, so they identify the company, not the item, and a label that carries them has not been shown to be genuine by that fact alone.
Some labels also show a "PO number" made of "AS", digits and a letter. We see it on a separate small tab on some jackets and on the T-shirt label. We have not confirmed what it encodes, and we have found no way to look it up, so we do not use it to date or verify anything. The year-and-month on a jacket ribbon looks like a production or season date, but we have not confirmed that either. Treat both as part of what genuine labels show, not as codes to decode.
Zips and Hardware on Leather Jackets
The Milo biker in our records uses zips stamped "IDEAL", with "RF" and "LB" marking the two sliders and a small "ALLSAINTS" stamp on the pull. Hardware is not uniform across the range. In our records a different bomber jacket uses a zip with "YKK" on the slider. The make of the zip is therefore not a check on its own: it differs by style and over time. What to look at is whether the zip runs smoothly, whether the metal is stamped cleanly, and whether it matches what a verified jacket of the same style shows.
The leather itself is the other thing worth handling. The genuine biker jackets in our records are cut from soft lamb leather (the Milo ribbon says so) with a visible natural grain, a polyester lining and a panelled back. Weight, drape and smell are checks to make with the jacket in your hands, ideally against a verified jacket of the same style.
Hangtags and Packaging
AllSaints hangtags in our records are grey-green card with "ALLSAINTS" in small capitals on the front, and a barcode, style name, size and price label on the back. A hangtag shows an item is unworn, nothing more. Hangtags are easy to copy and easy to swap between garments, so the tag does not authenticate the piece it hangs from.
Shoes and Boots
The genuine suede boots in our records show several marks. The insole carries a stamped "ALLSAINTS" with the size ("43" on this pair), the inside lining has a "MADE IN PORTUGAL" stamp in black ink, "ALLSAINTS" is stamped into the suede at the back of the collar and printed on a fabric pull tab at the heel. As with clothing, each of these can be copied, and they are best compared against a verified pair of the same model.
What a Matching Mark Does and Does Not Prove
A neck label, a care ribbon, a zip stamp and a hangtag can each be copied, and the examples in this guide are only what genuine pieces in our records show. A matching mark proves nothing on its own, because fakes copy marks, and a different format is not proof of a fake, because AllSaints uses different labels for different products and years. The registration numbers on the care label are the same across products, which is exactly why they cannot settle the question.
What decides the question is how everything fits together: the label format for that product type, the style name and code on the ribbon, the hardware, the leather or knit, the stitching and the weight, all compared with a verified item of the same style. Weight, drape, leather grain and smell are checks done with the item in hand.
How to Check Your Piece
- Find the neck label and confirm its format suits the product type (stitched leather patch on a leather jacket, woven label on knitwear).
- Read the care label end to end: the style name and code, materials and a "Made in" line that agree with each other. Do not treat the country as a verdict.
- Look at the zip, snaps and stitching, and compare them with a verified piece of the same style.
- Feel the material. A leather jacket should feel supple, not stiff or plasticky; a knit should match the fibre content on the label.
- If the purchase matters, have it reviewed against verified examples before you pay.
When to Get a Professional Opinion
If the price is high, the listing does not show the inside labels or the seller will not show them, a second opinion is cheap insurance. LuxeDetect reviews clothing, shoes and leather jackets from your photos, with a verdict from a specialist and a Certificate of Authenticity. Send the neck label, the full care ribbon, any zip or snap stamps, the stitching and the overall garment.
A code that checks out doesn't prove the item is real. Counterfeiters copy genuine codes.
Our authenticators check the labels, stitching and fabric of your AllSaints against verified references, from $15. You get a verdict within 24 hours, and a Certificate of Authenticity if the item passes.

FAQ
How can I tell if my AllSaints jacket is real?
No single mark proves it. Genuine AllSaints leather jackets in our records carry a stitched leather neck patch, a black care ribbon with the style name and code, and branded or stamped zips, but good fakes copy these. Check that the label, ribbon, hardware and leather all fit the style, compare with a verified jacket of the same model, and get it reviewed if the purchase matters.
Can I authenticate AllSaints from photos?
Yes. What decides it is how the neck label, care ribbon, hardware, materials and construction fit together against verified pairs of the same style. Clear photos of the neck label, the whole care ribbon, the zips and the stitching are what a review needs, and a professional review is the safer route on an expensive piece.
What do RN 128793 and CA 58080 mean on an AllSaints label?
They are registration numbers that appear on genuine AllSaints care labels. They are identical on every style we have seen, from leather jackets to T-shirts, so they identify the company and do not tell you whether a particular item is genuine.
What is the PO number on an AllSaints label?
It is a code beginning with "AS" that appears on a small tab or on the care label of some pieces. We have not confirmed what it encodes and have found no way to look it up, so it is not something you can verify.
Does "Made in India" or "Made in Portugal" mean my AllSaints is fake?
No. Genuine AllSaints pieces in our records show different countries, including India on leather jackets and Portugal on a T-shirt and on suede boots. The country is a fact about that piece, not a tell.
Can I date my AllSaints jacket from the label?
We would not. The year and month on a care ribbon looks like a production date, but we have not confirmed what it means, so we do not use it to date or authenticate a piece.
