In the ranking of the best American retail chains, Michael Kors takes third place – after Apple with its gadgets and Tiffany with its jewelry. For every square foot of retail space, it sells several tens of thousands of dollars annually. That is why there are quite a few “dealers” who want to claim the brand’s achievements for themselves. We will tell you how to distinguish the original from a fake and show you the best bags from Michael Kors.
How to buy an original Michael Kors❓
Michael Kors bags have become so popular that they began to be mass-counterfeited. Entire factories have appeared to produce them. They make counterfeit versions of these popular bags and put a price on them “just below the original” so that you buy them, thinking you just got lucky. The bad purchase only becomes apparent after a few months, when the bag’s appearance deteriorates.
To avoid ending up with a fake, which Russian social media (“Girls, a bag has arrived!”) and online stores are swarming with, you can follow a few tricks.
- First, take a close look at the logo located on the front of the bag. On an original Michael Kors bag, it is made evenly and neatly, and the letters have the same thickness and embossing. A real brand carefully monitors the quality of its logo, even on the hardware. Counterfeit products often pay less attention to this. Michael Kors has a special situation in general: the company uses a filigree laser for logo engraving, so the chance of even the slightest defect is nonexistent.
- The seams and joints should be well stitched; you should not see traces of glue or other sloppiness. The quality of the item can also be indicated by the weight of the chains, clasps, and decorative elements. Michael Kors makes them from quality metal, so they cannot be too light.
- Check whether labels are sewn inside the bag with the country of manufacture and the product serial number (it can be checked on the website). Since 2015, specifically to combat counterfeits, the brand has started placing a tag with 10 digits on the seam inside — the batch and model number. If you do not have this tag or nothing can be identified by that number, that is a reason to return the item to the sellers. There should also be a tag the color of the bag under the inner pocket with the name of the manufacturing company.
- And the easiest way to guarantee that you do not have a fake is, of course, to buy the bag directly on the official Michael Kors website in the USA. There, the quality guarantee is 100%, and the prices are much lower than those of resellers from Russia. Even taking shipping costs into account, the savings are substantial.
- And also — and for many this is the most important thing — on the American Michael Kors website, the selection of bags is simply much larger. There are hundreds of clutches, wristlet bags, large bags, mini bags, wallets, large shoulder bags, backpack bags, and so on. In all the colors you could want. There is actually so much choice that your eyes may start to wander.
