Heron Preston CTNMB turtleneck windbreaker in orange and black by Gman
I am reviewing Gman’s Heron Preston CTNMB turtleneck windbreaker in black and orange by pointing out the flaws and giving my thoughts at the end of the review. The link to the seller will be in this review. Gman is a reputable seller in the rep community, and his products are mostly high quality. The windbreaker pricing is considered in a budget category, so we shall determine if his item is high quality. Let’s get started.

Flaw 1
Let’s compare the collar pull-tab label on both windbreakers to spot the differences. Upon a glance, the overall font on Gman’s pull tab is fatter than the authentic ones. As shown in the images above, the letter “E,” “R,” “MADE IN ITALY,” and “USA” are just too thick. However, this is a minor flaw because it is not too apparent to the naked eye.
Flaw 2
Let’s shift our focus to the neck labels to compare them. The authentic neck label colour is more vibrant than Gman’s. Furthermore, the genuine label has more details than Gman’s label. The font on both neck labels is similar, so good job.
Flaw 3
The font differs on both sleeve labels by looking at the words “Clothes accessories,” & “Experience storytelling,” & “MADE IN ITALY,” & “HANDLE WITH CARE” on Gman’s sleeve label. Gman’s font is thinner than the authentic font.
Flaw 4
Gman’s sleeve embroidery “CTNMB” is thicker than the authentic ones. However, Gman’s embroidery is neat, and I expected even worse; for example, wonky embroidery or lose threads.
Flaw 5
The last flaw would be the collar embroidery and looking at Gman’s letter “C” to compare with the authentic ones. Gman’s letter “C” is slightly thick, and the gap is narrower than in the retail font.
Conclusion
To sum it up, Gman’s Heron Preston CTNMB turtleneck windbreaker in black and orange is a decent piece and reasonable price. The flaws I have mentioned above aren’t that big of a deal, given the windbreaker falls under the budget category. The windbreaker quality and stitching are decent and will make a great piece to add to your collection. As always, peace out and stay vibey.
