Tobias, hi.

My quick search for Calvin Klein logo font used also revealed bodoni-classic-pro-a

I suspect that font was a starting point, then outlined then modified.

The biggest give away is the serif brackets which you circled.

If you want a vector of Calvin Klein logo, I found here.

It is copyrighted, not sure how you want to use.

I am not a fan of using sites like Seeklogo or Brands of the World to get corporate artwork assets. Very often the logo files that are uploaded are re-creations done by other people. The files aren't authentic.

 

It's one thing if someone is using a company logo in a personal graphics project. But if the artwork is being used in a paid, commercial project then it's vital to have authentic, current art files as well as color specs and brand use guidelines.

 

If I'm in a time crunch and need a company's logo immediately I'm more likely to find legit corporate art elements within PDF documents posted on the company's web site. A company like Calvin Klein might just as likely rasterize any logos within company PDFs to prevent people from extracting vector-based elements to re-use.

Did you apply any effects?

Can you select the text object and open Window > Appearance. Then take a screenshot and share that.

 

But also: that font has very rounded letters. So what you are seeing is by design.
