I recently bought a Armani Jeans messenger bag from an online store. I had my eye on it for quite some time but hesitated about buying it. I kept wondering if it would be fake or authentic. I investigated and read up on it. I heard that Armani Jeans replicas were an issue. I eventually decided to take the risk and buy it.
It arrived a few days later and I couldn’t wait to open it. I was taken aback when I saw it in all its glory. The material was top-notch. I couldn’t help feeling totally pumped. I was convinced that this one was the genuine article. I had read up about these bags and was quite knowledgeable about them, so a few days later, I decided to do some more research to make sure that I had not been duped.
Much to my surprise, the bag was in fact a fake. Which for someone like me who prided myself on buying only genuine products was a complete bummer. When you pay a premium for something, you expect it to be of premium quality too. And this Armani Jeans messenger bag wasn’t it.
Cursing the seller, I decided to embark on the task of tracking down the items original source. Lo and behold, it was the same shop I had bought the bag from. I soon found out that the shop had a wide selection of Armani Jeans messenger bags for sale at different price points. Many of them were fakes. I was livid with the shop. How could they stoop so low and cheat people of their hard earned money?
Have you ever had a similar experience? It’s important to know how to tell the difference between a fake and an authentic one. First and foremost, look for the “Genuine” or “Authentic” tag on the bag. It should be clearly visible. The quality of material used is a huge tell-tale sign. Generally, the original Armani Jeans messenger bag usually is made of quality leather or canvas. Moreover, look for the brand’s logo, as it should be embossed rather than printed in the bag.
The serial number should also be cross referenced for authenticity. Most Armani Jeans messenger bags also come with a dustbag, hangtag or care booklet, all of which should be present in the genuine article.
I have since learned the hard way to always double check the authenticity of items before making the purchase. I would also advise people to avoid buying from shady stores, because there’s always a chance they could be selling fake goods.
Another tip would be to try out Armani Jeans’ ecommerce stores or get it delivered from a high street shop. The prices may be higher, but at least you are more guaranteed it’s real. Have you had any experiences with Armani Jeans messenger bags that you’d like to share?
