Okay, so I’ve been wanting a Fendi Mama Forever shoulder bag for a while now. I finally decided to pull the trigger and get one, but I wanted to make sure I was getting a real one, not a fake. So, I did a bunch of research online and wanted to share my experience here.
First, I looked up pictures of real Fendi Mama Forever bags. I paid attention to the details, like the stitching, the hardware, and the overall shape of the bag. I noticed that authentic Fendi bags have really neat and even stitching, and the hardware is usually engraved with the “FF” logo or “FENDI”. Also, the second dash in the “F” of the logo should be shorter and thinner than the line above it.
Then, I started looking for a bag online. I found a few that I liked, but I was still a bit nervous about buying one without seeing it in person. So, I decided to check the serial number. I learned that all Fendi bags made after the 1980s have a serial number, usually on the back of a leather tag or on a narrow leather tag inside the bag. I asked the sellers for pictures of the serial number, and most of them were happy to provide them.
After I received the bag, I examined it really carefully. I checked the stitching again, and it looked perfect. I also inspected the hardware, and it had all the right markings. The “FF” logo was there, and the “FENDI” engraving looked legit. I even compared the bag to the pictures I had saved earlier, and everything matched up.
Here’s a quick rundown of what I did:
- Studied pictures of real Fendi bags.
- Looked for a bag online and checked the serial number.
- Examined the bag carefully after receiving it.
- Compared the bag to the pictures I had saved.
In the end, I’m pretty sure I got a real Fendi Mama Forever bag. It looks and feels amazing, and I’m so happy with my purchase. I just wanted to share my experience in case anyone else is thinking about buying one of these bags. Just do your research, be careful, and you’ll be fine! It’s not that hard to spot the fakes if you know what you’re looking for. Plus, the real ones are just so much nicer. It’s worth it to spend a little extra time to make sure you’re getting the real deal.
