[@ACloserLookOfficial]

Good vid

[@tiaith2266]

That's a pretty good fake tho. I barely can tell

[@makeupbygloria]

The fake version really tried it though lol the colour shade gives away

[@pilipina75]

There are 2 levels of authentic bags ( level 1 quality is for the mass productions for high end rich people) level 2 is mass productions for regular people that will spend under $500. But at the end of day....there are no differences in quality wise. I'm on bag business...so..I know.

[@rasheedadean-poetic5230]

Now the people who make the fake ones will know how to fix their mistakes... lol but good job

[@Ace-ke7fq]

nah,..for they don't nor want to spend the whole lot of money,.the whole purpose of their cheapness..

[@vaurera]

they wont make it as real..there will be minor detail different.

[@mikechapman2083]

Nah they can’t

[@lucamicheli6705]

thing is its rly hard to fix the mistakes

Hi Yes, in regards to the zipper. I have a genuine “small” MCM directly from Bloomingdales. It’s slightly older but the zipper does not have the stitching straight down. The stitching is all around both sides. Don’t forget they all have “YKK” engraved as well. Depending on the models, they do have very slight variations. Great video

why the fake look better than the real

[@chitywok4290]

I dont think so. The leather is premium on the real one.

No way in hell. This brand he amazing leather. It would be hard to reproduce that cheaply.

Ur stupid

[@mr.lord3609]

I’d like to mention that i have an mcm bag straight from mcm (The model is mcm chevron backpack) and it has only one row of stiching next to The zipper and anotherone next to The zipper so two lines of stiching next to The zipper together and in The video you say its has to be 4 but acctually it all depends on The model of The bag

[@lilbunny4677]

yup yup! the one on the Video is a Model from 2017/2018

[@babyyocho816]

I just bought mine at the mcm store and the zipper stitching is how it is on the fake one

[@lilbunny4677]

the real one in this video is a model from 2017/2018, mcm likes to change there model a lot, the 2020 version you have is real don’t worry .

[@onetwo937]

Also on the fakes of the newer version you can tell easily if it’s fake just by looking at the leather panel cut under the straps, on fakes they’re stitched/placed lower than the real ones, real 2017/2018 mcm straps have 3 patterns cutting off, the fakes also have smaller pockets from the inside, as the real one has very large pockets, and when wearing a real one, there’s a shape every real mcm backpack has when hanging off your back while the fake one just looks like it never looses its shape and really great video for sure it helped a lot of people 💯

[@KaynoIsMyName]

[@hypenation9765]

I bought a used bag and everything checks out except the straps. Mine feels a little too flimsy because it was used (lightly), but I have no clue how a deadstock bag feels. Are the straps just flimsy in general?

No ive used my bag every day for 5 years and it still looks good

I got a problem I bought one off some guy and everything is accurate expect for the straps the logos are going up and there’s not another set of the logos getting created and the buttons on the straps where it says MCM it’s not pointing straight down nor does it have the white tag inside and the zipper doesn’t say ykk isss it fake ?

Sounds like it

[@dreaa3601]

So if everything else is good but the stitching is off then it’s still a fake... Damn

[@kguap6392]

What if the bag has no studs

[@jacobhuffman6432]

Do one on mcm belt

[@ThemMetroKids1]

What's the purpose of all this if there is a serial number why can that not be searched for by the designer to confirm it's real or not like some other designers I feel like that would defeat all of this if you could just look up the serial number at or with mcm and that be all

Hello, i was wondering if anyone could help me, please :( About the real one have the stitches lined in the middle of the zip, is really true that is authentic was made that way? So i bought a bag online, and the zip also has the stitches in the middle just like how you said it was authentic that way..but i recently checked the pic on the mcm website but it was all the way around the edges :( and now i was super anxious if my bag was actually a fake..can anyone help me please :(

[@m0rtallyw0unded]

What if the bag has +50% real features vs less than 50% fake features, would you call it a fake? I have a bag, it's the dual one, with the detachable front pouch, but the pouch and one of the attaching straps are missing. www.dropbox.com/sh/hqf7ralpx2pepz4/AAALpWPeTrKHf-oJvUw4ePcza?dl=0 I don't know if I should just let my granddaughter use it for school or try to see if it has any value even with the missing parts. 1. The pattern style of up/down matches real. 2. Zipper angle matches but with only one line of stitching 3. Zipper pulls it's just down the middle but does not have YKK. 4. MCM logo has nine leaves on both sides. I thought it was supposed to have 9 leaves on one side and 8 on the other, but I could have that backwards. 5. While the plate is well stamped and easily readable the screws are not actual screws they're just stamped on. The inside plate is just a logo, no screws and no serial number just leaves & manufacturer. 6. The straps are created by the fabric being folded over and stitched down the middle, but you can't really tell the logo on the outer straps. The fabric is stamped with the MCM logo on the adjustable part. The screws holding the strap to the adjustable part have the MCM logo. 7. In some places there is dual stitching and some places there is single stitching. 8. No dust cover Thanks for any advice!
