How to tell the authenticity of LV bags
LV is probably the most counterfeited brand in the market (Figure 1). The leather grain of the genuine LV bag is deep, and the grain pressed by the counterfeit LV bag looks too smooth and has no texture (Figures 2 and 3). First, look at the leather lines of the real LV bag with leather lines. The gaps between the small blisters are relatively clear, the width is average, and the feel is moderate and soft, which is more flexible. To make a metaphor, it seems that there is a plane below itself, and then irregular blisters are added one by one. The gaps between each blister are very uniform and have a certain depth, and the height and depth of each small blister are also uniform, which makes it look more textured.

The patterns pressed by fake LV bags are similar in general, but they will produce oil after being used for a long time, and the feel is not delicate and flexible enough, and it feels hard. Although there are irregular lines, the gaps between the patterns are small, and it feels as if the blisters are densely packed together, which is not three-dimensional. You can see the clues when you compare the details. Some fake bags may have obvious grooves, but often the particles on them look too smooth and have no texture. Therefore, first of all, by looking at the dermatoglyphics, we can basically judge the authenticity of LV bags. No matter how extravagant the counterfeiters say, the lines of LV old flower skins are completely insurmountable difficulties for counterfeiters. The above prints are oblique lines composed of small dots (Figure 4), which is more than a imitation, and the flower logo is basically composed of oblique stripes, but the colors are often wrong (Figure 5). Second, from a distance, the typical Monogram pattern is composed of four-leaf flowers on the old flower skin. From a distance, it seems to be a whole yellow-green stroke, but if you look closely, you will find that the above prints are oblique lines composed of small dots; From a close look, you will find that the color printed on the label is actually composed of parallel diagonal lines, the color of flowers is yellow-green, and the overall tone is very clear. Hong Kong cobblers focus on the care of luxury leather goods. The imitation goods are over A, and the flower logo is basically composed of diagonal stripes, but the color is often wrong, and most of them are brown. Some colors are close, but because of the overall grain, from a distance, I always feel that the colors are ambiguous. Please note that this second method can be used as one of the identification criteria, but it can't be completely based on this point, because now the imitation is more real in the pattern, and the flowers on it are closer to the color of the real bag. It should be noted that if you buy it online, sometimes the photos may be off color. For example, some people take pictures with their mobile phones or under the lights at night, which may appear. In other words, if you buy a LV bag and see the color on the right in very bright light, you can conclude that it is an imitation. Authentic hardware of LV counters, such as zippers, is usually not very bright golden yellow (Figure 6). Third, look at hardware accessories. Usually, the authentic hardware of LV counters, such as zippers, is usually not very bright golden yellow, but blue, gold and copper, with a slightly darker color and a matte texture. Of course, this can't be generalized, because many new types of hardware now use dazzling bright colors (Figure 7). Hong Kong cobblers focus on luxury leather care. LV is usually thin, straight, round and three-dimensional. The genuine handle is rounded and smooth, without any wrinkles (Figure 8). The leather of the genuine new bag feels a bit like raw silk, slightly astringent, and looks obvious in pores and dull (Figure 9). Fourth, look at the leather. Some people say that they should look at the anti-counterfeiting line and the drip deepening test. In fact, this has been done beyond the A level. So we still have to look at the details. Let's talk about the thin white leather piping around the bag (such as pillow bag, shell bag, etc.). The genuine LV is usually thin, straight, round and three-dimensional. The whole piece is very uniform and neat, and there are no problems such as no disconnection, no distortion or awkward feeling. Hong Kong cobblers focus on luxury leather care, followed by leather shoulder straps, LV shoulder straps, even if they are diagonal backpacks, are all seamless, which requires high leather and great loss of leather, which is difficult for ordinary imitations to do. Then there is the handle of the hand-held bag. The handle of the genuine bag is round and smooth, and there is no wrinkle at all, while the slightly inferior imitation often has wrinkles at the turning point, but some super A bags can already be wrinkle-free. Some people say that we can look at the color, but this is actually the most misleading. Because LV monopolized the same model in Bao Butong, it was impossible to match the leather with exactly the same color. After a long time, the oxidation degree was different and the color was not the same. You know, the color of this cortex will change even if it is not left alone for a long time. The leather matching list is not particularly easy to see from the photos, especially if it has been turned into honey color. But if it's a new bag, especially the handle of the hand-held bag, it can be judged by the feel. The leather of the genuine new bag feels a bit like raw silk, slightly astringent, and looks obvious in pores and dull. When used, the cortical pores are closed and properly maintained, it will shine and become flexible. The leather of the fake bag, even if it can be wrinkle-free, is brighter when it is new, and it is a tough but not soft feeling. The picture above shows the matching leather on the new pillow bag, and you can see the delicate dermatoglyphic pores and neat rolling lines. LV sewing thread is not only neat and symmetrical, but also linen and cotton thread with wax (Figure 1). What is on the real bag is that each needle angle has an angle (Figure 11). The imitation cortex is harder and brighter, and it is really softer (Figure 12). V. Look at the details such as leather stitching and paint sealing. LV's sewing thread is not only neat and symmetrical, but also waxed linen and cotton thread, which can be used as identification details. For all LV products, thick and tough stitches will be at equally spaced seams, and the inner layer of LV handbag will be opened at the buckle, and the sticking position of the fixed position will be correct. Nowadays, even if the appearance of imitation goods can be done, it is difficult to be so meticulous in the line position inside. It used to be said that you can tell from the angle of the needle. The fake bag is usually straight down a line, but the real bag has an angle at each angle, like a connected willow leaf. But from this point of view, some imitations above A can already do this, so this is not enough to be relied on, and can only be used as a standard to test the imitation fineness of real bags. Judging from the comparison between the following two old genuine and fake bags with leather, the difference of stitches is not big, but the touch is slightly different, and the imitation leather is harder and brighter, really softer. In addition, the car lines used to observe the authenticity of new bags are also different, but this is only limited to the difference between new products and is only for reference. The genuine product is yellow (refer to the picture in point 4), while the counterfeit product is goose yellow or bright yellow. This situation is usually more obvious only when it is new. Once it is old, it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity only from the color of the line. Hong Kong cobblers focus on luxury leather care. In addition, we can see from the sealing of leather edges, but this is also a relatively new time. The difference between the authenticity of the new product is obvious. The edge sealing paint of the real bag is reddish brown, and some tannins or limited sealing paints will be slightly lighter. Imitation bags are always too light and orange. Except for the color, the color of the sealing paint is uniform and will not overflow. Pay special attention to the joint between leather handle and metal buckle. The edge sealing and lathe work are still uniform, and there is no roughness due to the change of thickness and shape. Imitations usually show flaws in this detail. Imitation edge sealing will use a very red color, or the color is too light, even if it is brown, but the color is always awkward. In addition, in some places, the paint is not neat enough, and the color will overflow. However, if a bag is used for a long time, it is difficult to distinguish it by color. It can be seen that the aging of the bag can actually cover up many details, so we should pay special attention to some second-hand bags that are fake on the Internet. The color of the leather edge is exposed (Figure 13). As can be seen from the imitation bag above, in fact, this old flower leather bag has been made perfectly, but the color of the leather edge is exposed. LV handbags will be printed with manufacturing numbers indicating the factory and year in some inconspicuous positions (Figure 14). LV bags have different serial number branding positions according to different series (Figure 15). 6. Looking at the handbag with serial number LV, the manufacturing number indicating the factory and year will be printed in some inconspicuous positions, which generally consists of two English words and four digits. Every LV handbag will have it, and the production year is different. Different styles of bags have different serial numbers. The serial number of the imitation will be there, but often the same serial number is used for the products produced by a counterfeit factory. It must be noted that some handbags produced by genuine bags before 1987 do not have such numbers. LV bags have different serial number brands according to different series. For example: the inside of the strap root (such as Shao Shao Bao), the inside of the metal buckle leather root (big Gemini), the leather on the buckle on the inside of the bag (small shoulders), and the small leather sewn on the side of the inner bag (small Gemini). The inner bag has a small bag sewn with a piece of leather written by LV, and then the inside is opened and branded at the inside seam (tannin), and the bottom of the bag is opened by sewing. Hong Kong cobblers focus on luxury leather care. Many people think that the serial number starts with SP and is from France, which is more authentic. In fact, not all LV products are from France. LV is also produced in Spain, Italy, the United States and Germany. Therefore, even if the product is not from France, it is not necessarily a fake. No matter where it is produced, the quality of genuine LV bags will be the same. In addition, not all serial numbers made in France begin with SP. The general serial number consists of two English letters and four digits, representing the place of origin and the date of production respectively. First, the three digits indicate the month, and the second and fourth digits indicate the year of production. With the exception, it is found that the four-digit serial number sequence of many new bags has changed. For bags bought after the end of 26, the second and fourth digits indicate the year of production unchanged; But the first and third digits indicate the week of the year. For example, 197 does not mean the 19th month of 27, but the 19th week. Many people think that the serial number starts with SP and comes from France, which is mORe authentic (Figure 16). LV serial numbers will be in different positions due to different series, but usually the branding position refers to the following description: LV leather trademarks that can be turned up in the line (such as the bottom of the bag, the upper left or upper right of the car line). Some people will mislead and say that their bags have serial numbers, so it is true. In fact, the imitation package of super A and above, except for the same appearance, the serial number will also appear in the same position of the same package. For example, this imitation denim (tannin) backpack is also branded with serial numbers. It is found that imitators prefer this number: SP12. Seven, list the last secret of handbag size, many people may not know, that is, on the back of the handbag printed with "Louls Vultton Parls made in France" on the outside of the bag, the real LV will definitely print the size of this bag. Such as this 3-inch bag. The word "3" can be seen on the back of the leather. If it is a fake, it will definitely not be there. Hong Kong cobblers focus on luxury leather care. Identification note: made in France's F must be capitalized, and some counterfeit goods in the market use lowercase F. LV Monogram cloth with the words LV LOGO on all accessories or locks of LV is made of special canvas and fire-resistant materials. When you touch the leather with your hands first, you will feel the concave and convex texture. The imitation has a mediocre texture and a smooth feel. LV leather pieces will have hidden serial numbers at the edge leather seams, and their serial numbers indicate the place and date of manufacture of the handbag.
