For years, I have always wanted to own a Supreme bag but was never sure if it was a fake or the real deal. I always thought to myself, is there really a way to tell the difference between the two? Well, the answer is YES! By following these steps and closely inspecting the bag, you can easily differentiate between a fake and the real thing.
The first thing you should do is double check to make sure the bag has the embossed Supreme logo. On the real Supreme bag the logo should be crisp and stick out on the bag, while a fake will be tedious and plain. This means that when you look at the bag, the logo should stand out from the material it’s embossed onto. Instantly, this can tell you if the bag is real or not.
The next thing to look at is the stitching. Supreme bags are made with the highest quality materials and if any seams are overlapping it is a big give away that you have a fake on your hands. With real Supreme bags you will also be able to spot a quality of stitching unmatched by a fake one. If you lift up the flap on the bag to check the interior, genuine Supreme bags will have a bright red lining on the inside. The fake bag will have a darker, duller shade of red on the interior.
Supreme also use only the best zippers and clips so if you’re finding the zipper on your bag has a tough time opening or closing, you may have a fake. Users of the real Supreme bags can attest to the smooth, easy-open zippers and clips, with no leaning or pulling needed. Replicas tend to be flimsy and weak, so you can often feel the difference when you have the real vs fake in front of you.
Another way to differentiate between a real and a fake Supreme bag is to warmly complain the material. If it’s a polyurethane, then it’s definitely a fake. The material that real Supreme bags are made of is a more durable, high-quality fabric so it would be obvious when you compare the two. With a genuine bag, it will sometimes have a velvety feeling or if its canvas it would be a coarse or thick feel.
Finally, checking the specifics on the Supreme product tags can tell you whether it is genuine or not. Only genuine products from the Supreme company will have height and width measurements supplied on the said tag, the fake ones won’t. At the same time, make note of any misspellings or grammatical errors, which are quite common in counterfeit Supreme bags.
One of the best pieces of advice I can offer is to make sure to do your research and compare all of the above features before you purchase a Supreme bag, to ensure that you are getting the real thing and not a fake. Although it’s not always possible, the best way to guarantee you’re buying a real Supreme is to purchase it directly from the official Supreme store, or from another trusted seller.
Finally, it’s important to remind yourself that if it’s too good to be true, it most likely is! So don’t fall for prices that seem too good to be true, because they could end up spoiling your experience. Be sure to know exactly what you’re getting and question any discrepancies that you find in the bags. Supreme bags can last you for a long time when taken care of regularly, so if you do find yourself in possession of one, take extra care of it!
