Fake-Spotting – How to recognize an original Michael Kors jet set
Although the Michael Kors fashion label is still relatively young in contrast to many other fashion houses, it has been one of the most popular fashion labels worldwide for years, especially when it comes to bags and accessories. This is also the reason why the cult brand has long been targeted by counterfeiters. So that you don’t fall into the trap, we’ll tell you what you need to watch out for so that you can distinguish an original Michael Kors Jet Set bag from plagiarism.
1. Material and processing
Always pay attention to the processing of the products during the fake check, because this can already reveal a lot about the authenticity. Seams that are crooked and frayed or do not have an even distance to the edge of the bag are a real indication that this is not an original Michael Kors Jet Set bag. Do the smell test as well, because with this you can quickly expose cheap materials like plastic, glue or other chemicals and of course this has no place in an original Michael Kors bag.
2. Serial number
Each original Michael Kors Jet Set has an individual serial number. This number is usually placed somewhat hidden and is composed as follows: 1 to 2 letters + 4 digits. The letters stand for the model of the bags, the Jet Set bag is marked with a “B”. The numbers represent the year and month of production. If you still have an older Michael Kors bag without a serial number in your closet, this is not immediately a reason to worry, because with older models it can also happen that no number is available. When buying a new bag, however, you should always keep your eyes open, because many fakes do not have this number. Do not be confused by the words “Made in China”, because many of the original bags are actually made there.
3. Original Michael Kors-Charme
A closer look at the golden Michael Kors charm that is so characteristic of all Michael Kors bags can also be worthwhile. Usually this is 3 mm thick on all originals, but on fakes, the charm is often much thinner and unstable. Check the logo in the charm for a clean finish and to make sure that all edges are even and that there are no material residues on them. The letters of the lettering on all Original Michael Kors bags are arranged close together and have the same distance between the letters. The embossing of the lettering is also relatively deep. If this is not the case, you are most likely not holding an original in your hands.
4. Logo – Original Michael Kors
Inside the Michael Kors Jet Set there is always a sewn-in logo on a flap. The edges of originals are rounded and always neatly finished, while fakes often have sharp edges and threads that stand away. Always make sure that the colour of the flap matches the colour of the bag and that the seam has been chosen to match the leather flap.
