how do you kno if a louis vuitton purse is fake?

Answer 1

When they make Louis Vuitton purse they are all one piece of material and when you look at the back of it and the LV are upside down then it real but if, both sides look the same then its fake, also when you buy it should come with some kind of registration card.

Answer 2

Ok, i live in manhattan, therefore have seen LOADS OF FAKES (and think they are repulsive:)). anyways, i also own 4 real bags and this is how you can tell they are fake: the fakes have either this pasty cream leather that never ages like the real bags do or this dark matte even coloring. the real bags have leather that ages to a dark patina, darker in the areas where you hold the bag as the oil in your skin affects the shade making it darker . the fakes either try to mock the brand new look (but never end up with the aged look), or mock the aged look.. which looks way too textured and cheap. also, the actual canvas print is duller and almost greenish in comparison to the real and often the fakes have a tan suede cheapy lining rather than the dark brown canvas of the real bags.
ta da. thats how you know. also, look at the person carrying the bag. if the person looks semi cheap and the handles are pasty cream it is FAKE and that person needs to get off canal street.
mmm yea.

Answer 3

kimtraut does have a good answer but it does sound a lot like my other answers when I answered several similar questions like these. To add to "her" answer. The LV can somtimes be cut off because of the design of the bag. And yes LV bags do have upside down LV's. But I don't know why people use this to answer these kinds of questions because only a few bags actually follow this. Speedy, Keepall, and Papillon. These are more but those are the popular ones. I reall don't feel like typing my answer again because I have answer a question like thise about 50 times. Just look for a question that's like this I most likely answered if with great detail.

Answer 4

listen to kimtraut. she said it all. Also one extra note, I've read that on the real bag the seam is never right on the LV. That is, they never break up the LV logo where the canvas is sewn together or on the edge. And it's totally real for the upside down lettering on the speedy bag. I go by the overall look of the person holding the bag too.
