Somebody wrote earlier, that those shops are reliable. It was said that shop personell clearly tells the customer what is fake and what is original. Now I am not so convinced anymore.
In february I bought a BMW jacket at Jinshenfa. This one, they told me, it was original:

Since then have I checked original BMW jackets that are on sale in germany, but I never could find this jacket in any "official" shop. So I think, the jacket from Jinshenfa could be "not original".
I don´t want to say, that I am disappointed with my jacket. No!! It is very good made, suits me very very good. I love that jacket. Quality seems to be very good. I have used it quite a time now and it is still 100% ok.
Maybe there is another reason? Maybe that jacket modell was rejected by BMW. #
Or maybe only a few pieces made as a sample?
Has BMW different jackets for other countries, so my jacket is not for sale in germany??

i use to sell porsche clothing from my clothes shop in australia.
they were made by the authorised porsche dealer and in fact were as and probably better quality than the stuff that was coming from germany as well as cheaper.
so the jacket you bought could have come from anywhere.
same thing with ducati.made in australia by the local authorised dealer.
the label inside the collar or elsewhere on it might give you some idea of where it came from?
if the quality is good it shouldn`t be a problem?
I just bought the "ZXE" boots similar to these:

Does anybody have experience with this brand (from the shop in Tachilek)?
I forget how much I paid. I usually get 3 or 4 items and my brain goes to mush.

WARNING : Do not take your wife or girlfriend with you to Mae Sai or beyond , took her there to buy some bike gear which she did and then she also managed to fill the entire car with every bit of crap that she could find from every single vendor on both sides of the bloody border . If that wasnt enough we had to stop at every fruit, flower and food stall from Mae Sai back to CMX. God its good to finally be back home ..
The WARNING really makes me laugh.
Concerning shopping, I only get excited at the bike shops these days. The other vendors and touts are just obstacles.

Just where at the shop.
The BMW Jackets and trousers ARE fake, even though they tell you that they are original.
inside a trousers was a label "Made in Bosnia". First of all, I do not think that any goods are shipped from Bosnia to Burma.
and second: the german text on the label was: "hergestellt in posnien". That is 2 major writingmistakes. I cannot believe that inside a genuine BMW trousers.
the protectors are made by a chinese company, so I think the whole stuff is made in china.
but anyhow: seems to be very good quality. only legal reasons should prevent from buying, of course

I tried on a few dirt-bike helmets yesterday and I smelled and saw signs of mildew. Who knows where this gear is coming from.
For helmets in Thailand I am sticking with Helmet 2 Home near Pantip Plaza. The owner is such a nice guy and seems really hard-working and honest! (Does anyone know his name?)
