Gucci is one of the most highly counterfeited luxury designer brands in the world. You need to know your Gucci bag is authentic or fake base on a few ways. Today we want to share with you how to authenticate a Gucci bag. Let’s check the points below:

1-SERIAL NUMBER

The serial number is always considered the best way to know the Gucci bag is authentic or fake. Every authentic Gucci bag have the serial number inside the bag.

The serial number will stamping on the leather tag. The front should have three lines of heat-stamped text, while the rear will have the serial number. On the front of this tag, make sure that the top line is the trademark ® in a circle. The middle line is “GUCCI” in all-capitalized and the bottom line should have “made in italy” in all lowercase letters. You can check the photo below:

Make sure that the entire heat stamp is justified in the center and the font is authentic.

2-LOGO QUALITY

The Gucci logo is an important brand element. No longer interlocking the G’s, the updated designer logo now includes overlapping G’s.

3-HARDWARE

The hardware including zippers and engraving will never peel, and feel lightweight. Compare to fake Gucci bag, the hardware feel very light and will tarnish after use for short period of time.

The zippers are another key piece to look out for. When the Gucci bag features a metal zipper, it will be flat and neatly engraved with the branded GUCCI.

4-THE STITCHING

Authentic Gucci bag feature have precise stitching, with the threads sometimes, but not always being the same color as the bag itself. If you see any unevenness to the stitching, breaks or gaps in the threading or fraying, the bag is a fake one so be careful.
