3 quickest ways to spot fake Chanel
1. Label
Authentic:
All letters have the same thickness, which is consistent for all stitches.
Fake:
The text is too thin, but the stitching is too thick on the fake item.
2. Date Code
Authentic:
Thinner “CC” logos and thicker numbers.
Fake:
Thick “CC” logo and thin numbers on the fake item.
3. Stitching
Authentic: The stitching is less deep and the bag uses high-quality leather, which reflects light naturally and looks more luxurious.
Fake: The stitching is deeper and the material is of poorer quality, lacking the authentic leather and natural sheen of the real Chanel 19 bag.
