First off, let’s talk leather. “Are Michael Kors bags real leather?” some people ask. Well, the answer isn’t so straightforward. Some are, some aren’t. They use different types, and like, even if it *is* leather, it might be that saffiano stuff. You know, the super durable, scratch-resistant kind that feels almost…plasticky? It’s practical, sure, but not exactly the buttery-soft luxury you might expect. And that kinda hides flaws that would be super obvious on real, untreated leather. Makes it easier to fake, ya know?
So how *do* you spot a fake? Ugh, it’s a pain. You gotta be like, detective level observant. Pay attention to the zipper. Apparently, how the zipper opens is a thing. Also, check the printed logo inside, and some kinda “Gray Tag information”. I dunno, honestly. I saw that on TikTok, and I’m not a TikTok expert.
And don’t even get me STARTED on the logos! Like, the placement, the font, the spacing… ugh. The fakes are getting *really* good. It’s not like the old days where you could spot a wonky “M” from a mile away.
Honestly, the best advice I can give? Do your research *before* you buy. Like, REALLY research. Go to the official MK website, look at the details on the bags *they’re* selling, then compare. And if something feels off… it probably is. If the price is too good to be true, it’s too good to be true. Duh.
