Myths about Louis Vuitton Brand: Busted!

Louis Vuitton is one of the most popular names to mention when you are talking about luxury brands. The fashion line has a penchant for releasing pieces that are not only pleasing to the eye, but also detailed in terms of design. There are a lot of myths that lie around the LV brand, especially when it comes to ascertaining whether or not you own a real or fake LV bag. In this post, we will be going over some of the myths about the LV brand, and putting an end to some of the outrageous hype that surrounds some of these beliefs.

• If your LV doesn’t have a date code it is fake: This is a common myth that flies around the LV brand, but this isn’t very true. There are a lot of reasons why the date code doesn’t appear on your product. In some bags, the date code may have worn off before you have purchased the item. Also, if it was not stamped properly in the first place, it will be pretty hard to locate. There are some authentication services that can help you locate the date codes. However, you don’t need to go through all that stress. A date code isn’t a determinant of a fake or real LV.

• If the LV logo is upside down then it is a fake: This is not true. There are also a couple of reasons why your logo may be upside down. In a lot of authentic LV products, there may be upside down logos. This occurs especially in bags. You may notice that on the front of the canvas it isn’t upside down, but on the other side it appears to be. This is mostly because the print is on just one single canvas, and when it is flipped, the logo appears to be the other way around.
• If it isn’t made in France, it’s a fake: There are a lot of LV products that aren’t actually made in France. In fact, quite a lot of LVs are made in the United States. Since different countries have different production and distribution needs, it only makes sense that the brand is produced in a number of places
• If the LVs are cut off, they are fake: This is probably one of the worst myths there are. On some bags or belts, you may notice that the LV logo is cut off by the seam. This doesn’t mean your item is a fake, it just happens to be the design.
