How to tell if a Louis Vuitton Speedy bag is real

To tell if your Louis Vuitton Speedy bag is real, focus on the “® LOUIS VUITTON PARIS” engraving and the stitching around it. The text on fake bags is always mistaken.

1. Graveren

You’ll find this on the exterior side of the bag.

• Authentiek:
  1. Small “®” with proper spacing from text and stitching.
  2. Deeply engraved, thicker inscription.
  3. Dense, prominent stitching.
• Nep:
  1. Large “®”, too close to text and stitching.
  2. Thin, shallowly engraved inscription.
  3. Small, sparse stitching.

2. Sharp patch

This is at the base of the handlers on your Speedy bag.

• Authentiek: Thin, refined stitching around handle attachment.
• Nep: Thick, bulky stitching around handle attachment.

3. Size print

• Authentiek: Ample space between numbers on the size tab.
• Nep: Numbers on the size tab are usually positioned too close to each other, with minimal spacing.

Shortlist: Authenticate your Louis Vuitton Speedy

Don’t have enough time to go through the entire guide? Here’s a list of ways to spot fake Louis Vuitton Speedy bags:

1. Exterior Tab Label: Check the text on the exterior tab. Fake LV bags often have thinner and poorly printed text on the handler’s tab, and the stitching may be too thick.
2. Handler Attachment Stitching: Verify the stitching on the attachment of the handler. Fake bags tend to have thicker stitching on the handler’s attachment.
3. Size Printing: Analyze the size printing on the side of the bag. Fake bags may have less spacing between the letters in the text.
4. Zipper Text: Check the text on the zippers. Fake bags often have thicker “LV” text compared to authentic ones.
5. Carbine Text: Inspect the “LOUIS VUITTON” printing on the carbines. Fake bags may have smaller and deeply stamped text on the metal carbines.
6. Handler Stitching: Examine the stitching on the handler. Fake bags may have thinner and shorter stitching on the handler.
7. Strap Stitching: Verify the stitching on the strap. Fake bags often have thinner and shorter stitching on the strap.
8. Buckle Quality: Look at the buckle. Replica LV Speedy bags may have overly shiny buckles.
9. Button Text: Check the “LOUIS VUITTON” text on the buttons. Fake bags may have thicker text on the buttons.
10. Leather Quality: Assess the quality of the leather. Counterfeit LV Speedy bags may have sharp leather instead of smooth.

These indicators can help you identify fake Louis Vuitton Speedy bags more easily.
