Yes = a lot of 'designer' (i.e. over priced rip offs) gear is manufactured in China .. some factories** run an extra (night shift) ... during the day they make the 'official' designer gear, during the night the 'unofficial' gear .. which they sell at the same price direct to the 'parallel import' channel ... The 'designer' companies would have you believe that the night shift produces 'fakes' .. the problem is (of course) that this brings into question, exactly what is the day shift producing then ? ** The less scrupulous factories will package up and sell all the day shift 'rejects' instead of (or as well as) running a night shift.

It would be great, but designers are very precious about who sells their clothes and for what price.
