Identifying Real Designer Handbags

When you spend money on designer handbags, you want to be certain you’re getting what you really paid for. For this reason, you need to be able to tell the difference between a real designer bag and a cheap knockoff. If you don’t mind knockoffs, you still need to know what real designer handbags look like so you can ensure you buy quality in your knockoffs.

The first thing to check is the stitching. The first place cheap knockoff manufacturers cut corners is in the stitching. If you see overstitching, loose threads or really weak threads anywhere, you can be certain that it’s not worth buying. Pull at the seams a little; does the thread stretch easily? Also a bad sign. Real designer handbags use tight, nonelastic threads.

Look at the logos on your designer bag. Whether they’re printed or emblazoned on metal studs, they should be crisp and clear. If the logo looks smudged or low-quality in any way, they are not designer . If the metal studs have any sharp edges or places where metal is rubbing off, that’s also a bad sign.

Look at the inside. It should be roomy, and seem slightly larger than necessary to fit the inside your bag it is made for – but only slightly. Too large, and it shows wear too easily.

The outside of designer handbags are tough and perfectly made. Any flaws in designer handbags causes them to be excluded and destroyed instead of put on sale.

If you’re buying a knockoff, the closer it comes to the standards of your designer bag, the better the deal you’re getting for your pound. Check your designer handbag carefully before buying.
