Last Updated on January 7, 2025 by Ch David

This is the ultimate Louis Vuitton Noé authentication guide. Read carefully and learn how to protect yourself from replicas.

How to tell a fake Louis Vuitton Noe bag

You can tell a fake Louis Vuitton Noe bag by paying attention to the “LOUIS VUITTON” inscriptions along the bag.

• Authentic items consistently differentiate themselves from fake counterparts by virtue of their impeccable quality.
• Counterfeit versions typically display noticeable flaws in character thickness and kerning.

1. Strap

• The stitches on the top + bottom of the strap are too thin on the fake Noe bag.
• The fake Louis Vuitton Noe bag has its “® / LOUIS VUITTON / PARIS” text looking really thin.
• The fake Noe’s inscription is that it is too tall and too narrow.

Is it too hard? Reach out to our expert LV bag authenticators:

2. Square label

• The fake Louis Vuitton Noe bag has its registered trademark “®” symbol looking too thick and too boxy.
• The “LOUIS VUITTON” and the “PARIS” two lines of text are also too thick.

This “too thick” flaw that’s noticed on most of the inscriptions on the replica Louis Vuitton bags is due to how deep the text is engraved into the leather.

3. Manufacturing country

This text may differ from one bag to another, as not all of the genuine Louis Vuitton Noe bags were manufactured in France.

For example, as they can also be made in Italy, Spain and other countries.

• The fake bag has its “made in France” text at the wrong thickness.
• The letters in the word “made” are too thin.
• Then, the letters in the words “in” and “France”, are too thick.

4. Poitny-ended label

• The fake LV Noe bag has its “made in France” text badly font-weighted.
• The replica “made in France” text looks too thin.
• The fake bag exhibits triangular stitching on the left side that appears excessively narrow.

A quick mention:

• The steps we’ve written so far are the BEST ways to authenticate this item
• The next few steps are still reliable methods…
• … but they apply to non-top-versions of replicas available for this item

If in doubt, we recommend double-checking the steps we’ve explained above this line.

5. Strap button

• The fake bag has its “LOUIS VUITTON” text looking really thin.
• Precisely, the fake bag’s “LOUIS VUITTON” text on the padlocks is using a different font from the authentic bag’s text.
• The fake padlocks are also too shiny, as the golden material reflects too much light.

6. Zipper

• The fake bag has its “LOUIS / VUITTON / PARIS” inscriptions looking too thin.
• The fake zipper is too shiny.

Looking back at the legitimate Louis Vuitton Noe bag’s zipper, you can see how its metal is less shiny when compared to the replica bag’s zipper.

7. Buttons

• The fake bag’s “LOUIS VUITTON ®” text is at the wrong thickness.

The fake bag has its inscription too thin, while the authentic bag’s “LOUIS VUITTON ®” looks thicker and more defined.

8. Keychain

• The replica LV bag has its “LOUIS VUITTON” text looking really thin.
• The metal is just too shiny when put side-by-side with the legit bag’s metal.

Mentioning the genuine bag’s hardware, you can see how it shines less powerful and less blinding when compared to the fake item’s metal, which once again, is too shiny.

9. Side gap

• The replica bag has a gap too little deep, as the leather fabric from the right side overlaps the one from the left side.

Looking at the authentic bag’s gap, you can see how the fabric from both the right and the left side of the bag merges properly, without overlapping, unlike the fake bag’s gap.

Shortlist: Spot a fake Louis Vuitton Noe bag

1. Check the inscription and the stitching on the strap of your bag, since the fake bags usually have their text and the stitching at the wrong thickness.
2. Verify the inscription on the square label on the side, since the fake bags commonly have their text badly font-weighted.
3. Check the country of manufacturing’s text on the other square label of the bag, since these also commonly have their text at the wrong font-weight as well.
4. Look at the text on the pointy-ended strap of your bag, because the replica bags usually have their text too thick or too thin.
5. Examine the text on the buttons near the strap of your LV Noe bag, since the replica items commonly have their text really thin.
6. Brief the text on the zipper of, since the text on the zipper of the fake bags is also usually too thin.
7. Analyze the text on the buttons on the strap, since the replica LV Noe bags tend to have this inscription also looking too thin.
8. Check the text on the keychain, because the main part of replica LV Noe bags have their text at the wrong font-weight.
9. Authenticate the gap on the side of the bag, since the fake bags usually have their materials overlapping, instead of creating a gap on the side of the bag.

In certain scenarios, it might not always be possible to meticulously follow every outlined step as described above, particularly when you’re in the process of verifying the authenticity of your Louis Vuitton Noe bag.
