It's authentic Levan 732, already discontinued cut. White inner tag/label on the waist is not missing, Levan is just old cut where this tag wasn't at all yet. (don't know, when Diesel started with this white tag).

All datas, cut, wash, size, lab etc. are stated on the inner smaller tags. I don't know what do you mean with cheap or celeb line.

I thank you for your advice,zdenal_cz!
I see.
I also want to know whether Levan is expensive or not.
Tks,R.

Hey guys, wondering if this pair of Darron 8SV are legit. I bought it after i posted in the authenticity thread. Sorry for the crap quality. Taken with iphone. This 8SV wash seems a little more blue than the ones I've seen at the store.

^tis the made in romania version I believe. differs slightly from the made in italy version. it's authentic though. there should be a DRR/DRF stamp on inner waistband. If you're not satisfied, and the seller did not include in the description that it had the stamp, then contact the seller to either return it or get a partial refund.

damn, thanks darkknight, i had no idea there was a romania version. what in the hell? lol

no wonder the wash is a bit different.

Here's the listing. It's in italian but I had him list the same product on the US ebay to get BCB. You guys see anywhere where he listed it's got that stamp or it's DRR/DRF (btw what's this stand for?)?

yea most diesel jeans sold by re-seller's on ebay have the DRR\DRF stamp. nobody knows for sure what they mean yet. from what I've read though, I think DRF versions typically indicate a small, barely noticeable imperfection in the fabric, while DRR versions have a slightly different looking wash, due to being manufactured in a different lab. I guess diesel does this because labor is probably cheaper in romania than italy, hence they're able to sell them at a lower price.

Hmmm. I own an 8CA thatīs made in Italy. However, it carries the DRR stamp, too...
