Hey everyone!
Walking down the busy streets in the city, you encounter a fair amount of street vendors trying to sell you an array of random products. One type in particular that I often see are people trying to sell knockoff designer products, whether it be a fake Chanel handbag, or a copy of an Hermes scarf. Besides the ridiculously cheap prices and the fact that they are selling them on the side of the street, some are obviously fakes. But, there are some that are quite impressive. They sure have stepped up their game.
Let's try not to be so easily fooled, shall we?
Today I'm sharing with you all a guest post by Patriciah Collen from http://www.spotbags.cr/. Here she shares tips to spot a replica of a Givenchy Antigona bag.
Tips in Spotting a Replica Givenchy Antigona
Bag
The Givenchy Antigona is one of
the popular brands in handbags that can give any woman a breath of freshness
and style in no time.
These handbags are flawless
making your life easier like never before. Not just, they are classy enough to
carry, but also give enough space that can fit in all the essentials
effortlessly.
But, as the brand name has
reached the top, more and more people are coming up with its replicas that can
leave you in confusion.
So, does that mean one should
drop the idea of buying a Givenchy Antigona? Well, not really, as we have some
secret tips that can help you in spotting the real Givenchy.
Let’s take a look at them here!
1.
Look closely at the Triangle Pad
A dissimilarity that is easy to
spot is the ‘Logo Triangle Pad’. It is the leather patch that you can see right
between the handles having that Givenchy logo on it.
Those fake ones will even be
lacking the pointy part of the triangle pad, which must normally be placed in
the mid of two handle tabs.
Moreover, the leather pads must
not be too puffy or flat.
So, if you see those leather
pads look weird, it is not the bag to choose.
2.
Next, Comes the Logo
If you really wish to spot a
false Givenchy, the logo is one of the most important things that you must see
carefully. While the replicas come with a really poor quality of logo, the real
one is something attractive and funky. You can easily find out if the bag is
original or not, just by looking at the logo of the bag.
Another difference that you can
spot easily is the metal letters in the logo. Yes, not just they will be in low
quality, but also misaligned, cut poorly and placed too close together.
Even the thickness of the logo
varies, which can easily be noticed.
3.
Then, look at the Material and Construction
Givenchy uses genuine leathers
from polished goat to cowhide, which always keep the bags in a proper shape.
The real ones will be smooth, soft, flexible, and luxurious.
On the other hand, the replicas
will be hard and plastic.
Besides this, the fake one would
even show those rough edges, which cannot be seen in the real ones.
4.
Don’t Miss Brand Stamping and Serial Numbers
The real ones show the date code
format following LVMH standards. When you see the code, the first two characters
denote the manufacturing location of the bag, followed by four numbers, which
represent the week and the year in which the bag was manufactured.
Cross refer the date code with
the seasonal specifics of Antigona. Some fake date codes are so wrong that they
can even show up a different year, when the original one has not even debutant.
Even the colors tell if the bag
is genuine or not. While black can come in any season, some specific colors
only show up in particular seasons.
So, watch those date code and
colors carefully to spot a fake Antigona.
These were some of the ways,
which can help you in spotting the replica Givenchy Antigona Bag.
So, you can easily find a real
one and flaunt it without any hesitation. Websites like Spotbags are a great resource for
finding out what differences you can find between a fake and a real purse so do
not be afraid to do research before pushing that “Buy now” button.

I hope you all are having a wonderful week! The weekend is almost here, so there's that to look forward to.
