Logo
The resqme® will always have our logo on the side, so make sure it looks the same as this photo! Most counterfeits don’t have the logo, so it’s a dead giveaway, but it’s never a bad idea to double check.
Packaging
The real resqme® comes sealed in a clear plastic casing, and with each product you also receive a few extra pieces for easy storage. In the package, there should be a little instruction sheet, a metal key-ring, and a zip-tie for hanging the resqme® in the vehicle or your keychain.
If your package doesn’t contain all these extra goodies, it’s not really from us!
Colors
The resqme® family currently consists of 10 amazing colors to choose from: yellow, orange, red, pink, blue, teal, lime green, army green, white, and black. If you find a counterfeit with different colors, you’re likely getting a fake!
Compare the colors to this photo to make sure you’re staying safe with the original resqme®.
Features
As mentioned earlier, the resqme® tool has 2 functions – a glass breaker & seatbelt cutter. Some knock-offs include other cheap features, such as a whistle or flashlight. If your tool has more than 2 features, it’s not the real one!
Shape
The resqme® is the only tool on the market that should look this way – any other form of the tool is a copy of our product. Make sure to pay close attention to the details of the body, as well as the overall look of the device.
