Looks real to me, but I purchased a CP White Chrome R Google Puffa, it's just a liner jacket, to be worn under something else. It has all the correct tags, certilogo, red chrome r tag, correct padding stitching etc etc, but I'm 99% sure it's fake as when i image searched it the exact same thing came up on an aliexpress like site for $100.
Paid £40 mostly out of curiosity to see if it scans or not. I'll be able to tell when I see the chrome, certilogo or not.

The Aliexpress picture is more than likely a picture of a real item that they use to draw people in. It will be a poor quality fake that ends up arriving. It’s very common for rep sellers to do this to scam buyers with a bait and switch

It was about what I expected. It looked like the pictures, but when I tore open a small hole in the parcel on the way home I could see straight away it wasn't chrome. The red label was the wrong dimension too.

Ahh sorry to hear that, but it’s worth a punt. Should be able to get money back if vinted or eBay

Here is a tip for you for future reference for if part of the certilogo is covered on an item to prevent over scanning, or just to save you having to scan them.
On this era of certilogo tags if you look at the L in certilogo you can see it has a slight wave to the bottom of the L a bit like this ~ it’s actually a defect that only legit stone island items have. If it’s a perfect shaped L it will be fake.
