1. Material and craftsmanship details

1. Monogram Canvas
2. 
   

• Text and gloss: The authentic canvas has a thick and slightly hard texture, and the coating is even, giving it a matte texture.The imitation may be too soft or reflective.
• 
  
• Pattern symmetry: The LV presbyterian pattern is strictly aligned at the joints (especially at the junction of the wrapper and the side), and imitations are often misaligned.
• 
  
• Edge treatment: The edges of the canvas should be beeswax-colored edge sealed, smooth and burrs-free, and the imitation may be reddish in color or uneven coating.
• 
  
• 
  
• Metal Accessories
• 
  
• Material and engraving: Zipper heads, buckles and other metal parts are brass-plated, with clear and sharp lettering, and the font complies with LV standards (such as the font ratio of "LOUIS VUITTON").
• 
  
• Zipper Brand: Genuine EVA uses YKK zipper (some years are customized zippers), and the back of the pull teeth should be engraved with brand.Replicas may use cheap zippers or imprints to blur.
• 
  
• 
  
• Leather Part
• 
  
• Hands and trim: Natural cowhide material, the new bag is light beige, oxidizing over time to form a dark amber patina.The imitation may use dyed leather, and the color is unnatural.
• 
  
• Imprinting LOGO: The "Louis Vuitton Paris" imprint on the body leather must meet the following characteristics:
• 
  
• The letter "O" is a perfect circle;
• 
  
• The bottoms of "L" and "V" do not overlap;
• 
  
• "S" is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and the end is retracted inward.

• The authentic inner lining is brown microfiber (similar to suede), with a soft and delicate touch, and is printed with light-colored LV presbyterian pattern, with clear and no stains.
• 
  
• The imitation may use ordinary fabric, print blurry or have too dark colors.
• 
  
• 
  
• Sewing process
• 
  
• The stitching is wax thread, the color is the same as the leather edge (beeswax color), the pins are evenly tilted, about 5-6 stitches per inch.

• 
  
• The engraving is a hot pressing process, the font is thin but clear and recognizable. The imitation may be laser engraving or font errors (such as "1" without a base and "4" top not closed).
• 
  
• 
  
• Date code interpretation
• 
  
• The first 2 letters represent the origin (such as FL is France and SD is the United States), and the last 4 digits represent the production week/year (such as "1122" = Week 11, 2022).
• 
  
• Note: Before 2007, it was 3-digit number (such as "113" = Week 11 of 2003), and after 2010, some batches were changed to 6-digit codes.

• The authentic dust bag is made of off-white cotton, the LV presbyterian pattern is light and evenly printed, and there is no metal head at the end of the drawstring.The imitation may be made of chemical fiber material and the pattern is too dark.
• 
  
• 
  
• Certificate and Notes
• 
  
• LV does not provide a "certificate of authenticity" and only sells documents.If the attached "certification card" is marked with a handwritten code, it must be a fake product.
