Any thoughts on these Kuiu shirts being sold on Ebay right now. They look a little suspect to me. Thanks.

Seller has 99.6% feedback and over 53,000 total feedback...I'm guessing they fell into an overstock shipment or something.

ebay is FULL of name brand knock offs, most from China - I bought a "Leupold" scope a while back, it was too good to be true so I decided to put it to the test, it was from a pawn shop in Vegas advertised as "NIB" and sure enough - I ran it up to Leupold in Beaverton and had them verify in person (it was that good) then contacted ebay directly and came away with the clear message that as long as ebay get's their cut it's "blind eye" time … seller took it back readily with the old "oh wow, I didn't realize that" crap -

Oh yeah, there is a ton of knock offs out there on eBay. However, this is a US based seller with extremely high feedback...I think a lost shipping container (from china, where all the legit ones were made anyway) showed up lol

I can't even find any reviews for the original enduro shirts but that's too cheap to pass up

Is this legit??

Ordered 2, they've left feedback for me already. I'll let ya'll know, but they may all be gone by the time I get mine at these prices. Got a short sleeve ash brown for around town wear and a l/s vias to potentially add to my layer system.

Leupold is also a "US based trusted seller" …. ebay is not necessarily our friend

Leupold is, but they do not sell on eBay. Gotta check who your buying from on every single Leupold on eBay. There are plenty of sellers you can trust that you won't get a counterfeit from. If its shipping from China or the seller has no feedback or the price is too good to be true...you're getting a fake. If you're paying $12 for a shirt that has never been made anywhere but China, the seller has 53,000+ feedback, ships from the US, and you used PayPal and eBay to facilitate the transaction who 99.99999% of the time side with buyers in disputes regardless of the merits of the dispute...I think you'll be just fine.

it'll be good to hear back on how those "$12 Kuiu shirts" work out ….

I bet these are all knock offs. Kuiu has no other outlets for sale at this time.

There is one other Kuiu storefront, I believe in Spain at the airport, but it more for advertising and has some small inventory.

I ordered a couple too. If they are knock offs we may get our money back from Ebay, but worst case scenario we have some $12 dry fits. Half the time they aren't even that cheap at Walmart or TJ Maxx
