Let’s compare an authentic Chanel medium classic flap with a knock-off. Both bags are identical but I’m sure we can find plenty of differences.

This video will help you better understand what to look for when inspecting a bag to make sure it is authentic and not a fake. Let’s dive into details you haven’t seen like this before!

Try to buy from reputable sellers to avoid falling for fakes. They are getting better and better. Right after recording this video I was made aware that there are even better fakes that don’t show the uneven bottom and also stand straight. It’s getting harder and harder to tell the difference.

Sometimes authentic bags are judged as replica due to the heavy use they have gone through. And let’s not forget that these handbags are hand made and I have come across authentic bags with problems making them look like a cheap knock-off. I wouldn’t have believed that they are real if it hadn’t been INSIDE a Chanel boutique.
