How to Spot a Fake Gucci Bag

Gucci makes fine designer purses and handbags. As one of the most sought-after fashion companies in the world, it's no wonder that Gucci bags garner hefty prices. As a result, there are many replica Gucci bags on today's market. If you're shopping for a Gucci bag, keep an eye out for these replicas so you don't get duped into paying for a fake. If you know what to watch out for, you can easily spot a fake Gucci bag.

Instructions

1

Examine the bag's label. Replica Gucci bags often feature misspellings or typos on the label. The label's text should be clear, evenly spaced and free of errors.

2

Study the stitching on the bag. As high-fashion items, Gucci bags feature sturdy, even stitching. If the bag in question has crooked, uneven or frayed stitching, it is undoubtedly a fake.

3

Analyze the bag's hardware. It should be durable and feel slightly heavy. If the bag's zippers, clasps, buttons or chains feel flimsy or cheap, it is not authentic Gucci.

4

Inspect the bag's material. Gucci uses only the finest leathers and fabrics. Oftentimes, fake Gucci bags are made from replica leather that feels stiff.

5

Look closely at the Gucci logo. It should be two interlocking Gs. Replica Gucci bags often feature two interlocking Es instead.

6

Confirm the bag comes with a high-quality duster. All Gucci bags come with protective dusters. If the bag doesn't come with one, it is not authentic.

7

Check if the bag comes with an identification card. Gucci bags come with cards that list additional information, such as model numbers.

8

Compare photos of the bag for sale with photos from the official Gucci site. If you notice any discrepancies between the two, you are likely dealing with a fake Gucci bag.
