Authentication FAQ
How do you spot a fake Louis Vuitton wallet?
Fake LV wallets often fail on heat stamp depth, interior lining colour, date code format, and zipper branding for the exact model. Compare to reference photos of the real SLG before buying on eBay or Vinted.
Wallet-specific tells
Heat stamps should be crisp and evenly spaced. Lining colour must match the wallet model. Date codes sit in documented locations by era.
Photos hide shallow stamps. Post the wallet for authentication when the purchase price is significant.
