I’m sure you’ve seen those sleek, black paper bags with the iconic COMME des GARCONS logo printed on the outside. Sadly, those chic, designer paper bags may be a bit out of my price range. But that doesn’t mean I can’t rock the high-end look without actually having to splurge and buy the real thing. I’ve heard rumors swirling around the internet of fake COMME des GARCONS paper bags that are affordable and look great!
Well, let me just start off by saying that these bags are definitely a cheaper alternative and should not be mistaken as the authentic COMME des GARCONS bags. The attention to detail on the fakes is pretty heinous, but that’s pretty much expected when you’re buying a counterfeit product. But what I do love about these bags is that the pattern, although off, still manages to closely resemble the original ‘CDG’ look we all know and love. The fabrics used on the fakes are also really good quality and I’m often surprised with how hearty the material is, given how cheaply it’s made.
To give you an example of how good these fake paper bags look, I went to the store last week and got two of them for a fraction of the price. And I must admit, I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome. Despite the fact the CDG logo was slightly off and the material was of lesser quality, it still managed to look strikingly similar to the authentic ones. I was proud of my purchase and was tempted to flaunt the bag around unchanged, not that anyone would know the difference!
Plus, these bags are so light-weight and waterproof, I don’t have to worry about getting my stuff wet if I get caught in the rain. It’s almost like having a secret superpower in a way! I can go out, not worry about having to carry a bulky umbrella and still have total peace of mind knowing that my stuff is safe and covered.
I also love that these fake bags aren’t as pretentious as the authentic ones. Yes, I suppose it’s easy to spot a real ‘CDG’ from a fake one, but I don’t think it’s necessary to own the real version if you can still get a stylish look with a fake. What was once an affair between the fashion elite and this designer are now accessible for everyone – and I’m all for it.
Now, I know what you’re thinking, are these fake paperbags really worth the time, energy and money? Well, in my opinion, yes. If money is a concern for you and you want to look fashionable without breaking the bank, these fakes bags are definitely worth the investment. They look great, are reasonably priced and will last you a long time – even with repeated use.
What’s more, these counterfeits are actually great options for those of us who want to own and rock the designer ‘look’ without having to pay too much. Secondly, you can also mix and match items from different designer brands to create some really cool ensembles. Thirdly, these bags are highly versatile and fashionable, so you won’t have to worry about looking out of place.
And lastly, these fakes offer a great way to make a fashion statement without actually having to buy designer items. Sure, these bags are a bit ‘off’ in terms of quality when compared with the originals, but for the price you pay and the amount of wear you get out of them, they are totally worth it.
