stussy sling bag original vs fake

I’m sure you have heard of the Stussy sling bag, it is a unique and stylish purse used by many of the most fashionable celebrities.​ I bet you are wondering what the fuss about this fashionable accessory is all about? Well let me tell you all about it!

It all started when I spotted the Stussy sling bag on Instagram.​ It was being pictured by some of the most fashionable influencers and I instantly knew I needed to get my hands on it.​ After doing some research I finally found out that it was a “original” branded product, however I also stumbled upon many “fake” versions of it on multiple online stores.​

The original Stussy sling bag costs around $200 or more of course, which was a little too pricey for me.​ The fake versions however, ranged from $20 – $80 with minimal to possibly no difference in the quality.​ Naturally, this had me re-thinking my “original’ purchase and instead I opted for the much more affordable “fake” version.​

When I received the “fake” sling bag I was pleasantly surprised to find that overall it resembled the original quite well, I’d even go so far as to say that it was almost indistinguishable from the original product.​ It had all the same features, the material was of no difference in quality and it even came with the signature Stussy logo inscribed on the bag!

Having said that, I must admit that there was still a lingering doubt in my mind that the fake version might not last as long as the original, especially in the longterm.​ But, I wanted to test out this theory and see how it performs in the longrun so I have been using it for some months now and I’m happy to report that my sling bag is still just as in perfect condition as the day I bought it.​

The “fake” version of the Stussy sling bag certainly met my expectations.​ It was stylish, fashionable, of good quality and very affordable, which is exactly what I was looking for! To this date, I am still a very happy customer and will definitely be buying fake versions of the Stussy Sling Bag instead of the original.​

After using the fake version I did some more research and I discovered that, even though both versions look remarkably similar, the “original” is slightly heavier due to its hardware.​ This is because the “fake” version has plastic hardware instead of the metal ones used in the original.​ Therefore, the weight difference can easily be felt and is quite apparent.​

Apart from the weight difference, I also noticed that the “fake” version of this bag was lacking in comparison to the “original” when it came to the small features placed around the bag.​ It may have been due to the lower price tag but I wasn’t expecting to find that there was a difference in the tiny details.​

Despite that, I still think that buying the “fake” version of the Stussy sling bag is definitely worth it.​ It’s perfect for those who are on a budget or who simply do not want to make a costly purchase.​ It may not have all the same features as the “original” but it certainly offers a similar look and feel, all at a much more affordable price.​
