HOW TO SPOT A FAKE LV?

  • Search online to find out exactly what materials, colors, stitching and logo placements are supposed to be for the product you are purchasing. Fakes may be very similar to a particular style, but often get details wrong.
  • Look at logo placement. Real LV products always have the logos placed symmetrically. A Louis Vuitton product will never have the LV logo cut off, if the logo apears half on and half off the purse, wallet or whatever, it's fake.
  • Examine the leather (the purse itself, not the strap). Fake: The leather is rather hard, tough, and rough. Real: The leather is smooth.
  • Look at the zipper. Fake: The zipper is rough and is not so easy to open. The zipper might be broken; the zipper easily breaks. Real: The zipper is extremely smooth; it's easy to open the purse. One swish of your hand and the purse is open.
  • Louis Vuitton stitching is done perfectly. You will not see loose threads or ends on an authentic Louis Vuitton bag.
  • Louis Vuitton does not discount, have outlets, sell wholesale or have their products in open air markets.
  • Tags are never attached to a Louis Vuitton bag. They may come with tags, but they are simply placed in the purse or dust bag.
