How to tell a fake GUCCI from a real one was wondering if anyone knows how to tell the difference between a real and a fake gucci bag, preferably the fanny pack (aka fag bag/murse/pouch) and no need for any flames and comments such as "those bags are gay, only nammers wear them etc etc..." i've read the other threads that bashed these bags so we do not need another thread like that -D |
you buy it from a store and not night market lol |

if u really want to know, to sum it up, basically got it as a gift from someone and want to make sure it's real, (as the person "could" have just got it off ebay) |
it's gay.. the momnet u want into gucci and ask if it's real.. how embrassing is that.... |
maybe they'll do it for a fee |
what country is your bag made in? hope it doesn't say China. (this post wasn't meant to sound racist by the way.) |
The zipper on the right side of the back, if its metal, its fake, if its a piece of soft black thing, its real. |

and by piece of soft black thing as "leather"? |
yes |
Try getting access to one that you know is real (borrow from a friend?), and compare the two closely? |
basically, you cant. not all fakes are made equal, so even if it has a leather piece on the zipper that doesnt really prove anything other than the fact that the bag is potentially a good fake. you should walk into the gucci store or holt and see if they even still carry that fanny pack. theres a very good chance that its phased out as an item that was sold a few seasons ago, and no longer carry it. if thats the case, then you most likely own a fake. |
Actually you can. There is a really easy way introduced to me by my friend and it has worked everytime. She is the marketing manager for Asia-pac Gucci so she knows her stuff. First take a red phosphorus match, and light that up. After about 5 seconds, it will hit the white phosporus compound. At that moment, put it about 3 mm from the the second GC logo on the bottom row of the fanny pack (bottom row, second from the left) If it is real Gucci material, nothing should happen. If it's not, it will glow red. Becareful because it can get very hot. They've put in a special coating into the authentic Gucci fabric for just this purpose good luck, let me know how it goes |

went into holt/gucci today and looked at their bag, the difference: my bag: 1) the leather flap is a little thicker than the one at the store 2) the leather strip above the zipper (right Pocket) is thicker than the one at the store 3) the zipper does not close all the way to the end (hard to describe) i would take pics but my digicam is messed right now, but i have a felling the bag is fake, but i will try what u described above |
i walked into the lv store the otherday.. and saw a girl there holdin a lv purse. now im pretty sure the lv logo should face right side up but hers was upside down lol thats embarrassing haha.. |
Yes, I have a Gucci bag too and it's hard to tell that it's real. It should say Made in Italy. The quality of the leather and brass parts should be really good. My friend has a fake Gucci and it looks SO REAL. I couldn't tell if I didn't already know it. My name is registered at the Gucci store in Hotel Vancouver but I'm not sure if they have a record of what I bought. If anything carry a picture of the receipt if anyone doubts it. hahahhahhahahahahhahahhahahhah |
