How to recognize an original Valentino Rockstud bag
The famous Valentino Rockstud series of the popular fashion label has been one of the most sought-after it-pieces in the fashion industry for years. This is why these pieces have also long been in the sights of counterfeiters. But we will tell you with which tips you can distinguish original Valentino pieces from fake products.
1. The famous Valentino Rockstud studs
The famous rivet decoration of the Rockstud series always consists of rivets in a pyramid shape. Also, make sure that they are the same size and that the rivets are placed at equal intervals. Another feature that can give you information about fake or original is the distance between the rivets and the leather. This is very small or even non-existent in all Original Valentino Rockstud bags. So if you notice that the rivets are not attached tightly enough and have a large distance to the leather, you will most likely not hold an original in your hands.
2. The serial number
The luxury label has always given its bags a serial number in recent years. This number is attached to a label and is usually located in the inside pocket of the Rockstud models. The color of the label usually does not correspond to the other components of the bag, but often has a different color tone. Usually, these are either black, cream, or light brown.
3. The logo on the bag
In contrast to other Valentino bag models, the logo on Rockstud bags is always printed directly on the leather or on a separate leather flap. A glance at the color of the print can also give an indication of a fake product, as it should always match the colors of the rivet decoration. If the rivets are gold, the writing should be in gold, if they are silver, the writing should be in silver.
4. The logo in the bag
The red Valentino logo on the inside of the bag. This should be sewn on all four sides and cleanly processed. Since 2011, the label has the lettering “VALENTINO, GARAVANI, MADE IN ITALY”. If the bag has been manufactured earlier, this lettering may vary.
