Wearing jackets

Q: One mufti mentioned in a bayaan that we as Muslims should not be wearing clothes like the kuffaar. Then he mentioned even the jackets we wear, these resemble the kuffaar, so we should actually be wearing like a jubbah type coat which is similar to a kurtha. Is this correct? Are jackets disliked?

Wearing a fake jacket

Q: A fake branded jacket came into my possession as a gift. I like the jacket, but I was informed it is a fake. Is it halaal for me to wear? I don't want to wear it because of the brand, but because it's comfortable. The brand logo is visible on the jacket stitched in.
