This guide will talk about the Gucci Soho Disco bag. We’ll show you how to authenticate one in just 5 simple steps.

Let’s waste no time and legit check this Gucci bag.

How to tell if a Gucci Soho bag is REAL

You can tell if a Gucci Soho bag is real by checking if the stitches on the interior label are straight instead of angled. In-line threads are always a sign of an authentic Gucci Soho.

1. Interior label

Authentic Bag:

  1. The stitching at the top of the label is slightly angled, not placed on a straight line.
  2. The stitching appears thicker and has more weight.
  3. The text on the authentic bag is thicker and placed deeper into the bag.
  4. All letters, including “G,” are placed at the same level, with no floating letters.

Fake Bag:

  1. The stitching is placed on a straight line, lacking the correct angle.
  2. The stitching looks thinner and less substantial.
  3. The text on the fake bag is thinner and not as deeply printed into the bag.
  4. The letter “G” on the fake bag is smaller than the other letters and appears to be floating.

Shortlist: Authenticate your Gucci Soho Disco bag

Consider these top 5 indicators that can help you determine if you have an authentic or fake bag:

  1. Interior Label: Examine the label inside your Gucci Soho bag. Fake Gucci Soho Disco bags often have stitching that looks too thin and straight, instead of being thick and angled. Additionally, the text on fake bags may appear too thin.
  2. Gucci GG Rear Logo: Check the Gucci GG rear logo. Fake bags may have stitching that makes the GG logo look too thin.
  3. Strap Length: Look at the strap of your Gucci Soho Disco bag. Counterfeit Gucci GG bags may have straps that appear too short.
  4. Metal Strap: Inspect the metal strap of your Gucci Soho bag. Fake bags may have metal straps that look too wide and overly shiny.
  5. Dust Bag: Examine the dust bag that came with your Gucci bag. Counterfeit Gucci bags often have text on the dust bag that uses a different font compared to authentic ones.
