Are there going to be shirt police now? The Chinese fakes I bought for my sons (I refuse to spend £150 on two t-shirts) are virtually identical to the real thing. Someone would have to actually feel the material around the shoulder and look at it close up to be able to be sure it was a fake.

I’m going to keep buying them.

I consider myself aesthetically retarded and wouldn't be able to tell what version I was wearing. I've got a solid model when it comes to clothing: some kid in Bangladesh makes it, some wanker in Europe buys and wears it, and then I pick up the remains at some second hand store. Thats it. And surely there must be aesthetically retarded people in Sheffield as well?

Surely they're breaking some sort of law or something through threatening to throw people out if they're not wearing a particular brand of clothing?

Strange. What’s the situation with the law and buying a fake shirt?

Imagine being thrown out for wearing a hooky one only to get back in after an ‘Official Merchandise’ solicitor fights your cause.

It's what the Uyghur children imprisoned in Chinese sweatshops would want, fella. Keeps them in bowls of gruel, and better they get rewarded than the South-East Asian orphans working 12 hour shifts for Nike eh? You'd object to the obscene prices of the genuine shirts if any of it was ethically made, but the fact that it isn't just beggars belief, the profit margins. What would they be charging if these genuine Nike shirts were made ethically, £250 per shirt? The sooner we stop supporting the whole industry the better, but easier to turn a blind eye seemingly.
