How you can tell if a Chloé bag is real

To tell if your Chloé Faye bag is real, look at the T-shape stitching on the side of the bag. Original stitching should have the same density all over the T shape.

1. Stitching

1.1. Side (T-Shaped)

• Authentic: Features double-stitched T-stitching, making it robust.
• Fake: Usually has just one layer of stitching, making it appear too thin.

1.2. Flap

• Authentic: Stitching on the side is thinner and more refined.
• Fake: Features noticeably thicker stitching on the side.
