3 quickest ways to spot fake Hermès
1. Handler

In fake Hermes bags, some stitches may be straight, while others are angled, deviating from the 18-degree angle requirement for authenticity.

Authentic:
Authentic bags have thicker inscriptions with the same font-weight for all letters. There is also more distance between the letters, and they are not “glued” to each other.
