Burberry handbags<\/a> exude style, class and are actually quite the investment!<\/a> One can almost (but not quite) understand why so many produce counterfeit \u2018designer\u2019 items in hopes of imitating the allure of iconic Burberry handbags. Sadly, in today\u2019s time, there are more producers of fake \u2018designer\u2019 items that are often sold for way more than they\u2019re worth. The worst part? Hard-working fashionistas end up being ripped off, and utterly unaware of it until they attempt to resell their item to an authentication focused store (yup, like us).<\/p>\n

But, if you know Luxity at all, you\u2019ll know that we only do 100% authentic luxury items<\/a> \u2013 and for good reason! Authentic Burberry handbags are made with high-quality materials, designs and have perfect craftsmanship that is simply impossible to emulate.<\/p>\n

So, we\u2019ve gathered some useful tips to authenticate Burberry handbags, so you won\u2019t get bamboozled!<\/p>\n

Patterns<\/h2>\n

\"Burberry<\/p>\n

The first thing that comes to mind when one thinks about the brand is their iconic Burberry check print. Often, this is the first signifier of authenticity too \u2013 which is why it\u2019s important to become familiar with the brand\u2019s prints.<\/p>\n

The two most popular Burberry patterns are the HAYMARKET CHECK and the NOVA CHECK.<\/p>\n

Burberry Haymarket Classic Check<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Burberry<\/p>\n

The Classic Check pattern features a tan base background, decorated with black, white and red horizontal and vertical stripes and a faded knight insignia positioned at the intersection of two red lines as seen above.<\/p>\n

Burberry Nova Check<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Nova<\/p>\n

The Nova Check pattern is similar. The background has a light yellow undertone, and the lines that are red in the Classic Check pattern have a pinkish hue instead (as seen above). Furthermore, the Nova Check pattern does not have the faded knight insignia.<\/p>\n

Other Burberry Patterns<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Limited<\/p>\n

Although, there are many different variations that the brand has experimented with, for example, the limited-edition rainbow check print that Burberry released in support of LGBTQ. However, we must encourage you to take precaution when it comes to other unpopular creative deviations as they may be a counterfeit signifier. What\u2019s more, try to avoid any bags that are missing specific pattern elements, or that include additions to these traditional patterns. Ensure that squares created by the intersecting lines are neat and even. A sloppy pattern indicates a low-quality fake.<\/p>\n

Lastly, if you\u2019re unsure, check the pattern on the bag against a photograph of a verified authentic Burberry website.<\/a><\/p>\n

Stitching<\/h2>\n

\"Burberry<\/p>\n

Burberry is well-known for its high-quality materials and craftsmanship, as soon as you see a poor stitching job or excess glue \u2013 run! So, we encourage you to get up close and personal with your Burberry bag and check out how it\u2019s sewn together.<\/p>\n

From the handle to the lining inside the bag, the stitching should be straight, neat, even and clean with no loose threads. If anything looks messy or not quite right, you could be looking at a fake.<\/p>\n

Labels<\/h2>\n

\"Burberry<\/p>\n

Most Burberry bags contain either a metal plaque or a leather tag. The metal plaque should match the colour of the bags outside hardware along with an engraving of \u2018Burberry \u2013 London\u2019 in the brand\u2019s signature font. However, if the item says made in Poland, Romania, India, Spain, Italy, USA or China \u2013 don\u2019t be alarmed, there are Burberry factories all over the world, they even contract other high-end clothing makers in different areas to make items for them. Instead one can inspect the text, the signature Burberry font is very distinctive. The left side of the U and the Y are slightly wider, and the R\u2019s have small tails. Also, check that the logo is centred and that any stitching is aligned and neat.<\/p>\n

Additionally, most new and authentic Burberry handbags feature a style number on the reverse of the \u2018Made in\u2019 label.<\/p>\n

Where To Buy It<\/h2>\n

\"Burberry<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for authentic luxury items in sketchy alleyways or questionable websites, then you can expect nothing but low-quality fake for high prices.<\/p>\n

For authentic Burberry, only purchase from official Burberry stores or authentic designer resellers like Luxity<\/a>, where we promise genuine luxury items \u2013 or nothing!<\/p>\n
