Última actualización en junio 2, 2024 por Ch David

• You have a YSL bag
• And you’re not sure if it’s authentic

This guide gives you the piece of mind.

Alternatively, reach out to our expert YSL Bag Authentication Service — we have a team of experts ready to check your bag.

How to Tell If a YSL Bag is Authentic

The answer is: Check if the “SAINT LAURENT PARIS” engraving has the same thickness for all letters. Fake bags never have the right font-weight for their inscriptions.

1. Etiqueta interior

• Auténtico: The authentic text is thicker
• Falso: “SAINT LAURENT PARIS” is too thin.

Also, see how the fake “MADE IN ITALY” print is too tall compared to the real one.

Authentic bags must be flawless. YSL is one of the top brands in the luxury industry.

2. Handler

3. SLP Engraving
