Best Answer

A replica looks exactly like the original but they are either newer or cheaper and no the brand name on them is required to make them look exactly like the original.

A replica can be violation of copyright and patent laws. Buying one is not necessarily illegal, but selling it as the real thing is definitely illegal.

Is it illegal to put a major brand on a shirt you customized?

It depends on what you mean. If you mean is it illegal to design a shirt then put a major brand label's logo on your shirt, for instance, the Coca-Cola brand logo, yes, that is illegal. Almost all, if not all, major brand labels are copyrighted and it is illegal to use them without permission. If you mean can you make a shirt and call it a brand name that is the same a brand that already exists, for instance, American Eagle, that is illegal for the same reason.
