IMPORTANT READ-ME

Please see post #1 for complete Balenciaga authentication rules. All requests must be posted in this thread. Authentications are not done via private message or in any other thread.

See the link below for examples of the photos needed and the format they should be in (clear, close up, forward-facing, no angles, right way up, no bends in tags).

https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/required-pics-for-balenciaga-authentication.741442/

A link to the listing in question is required.

It is an authenticator’s right to ignore a request that is not in the proper format. If the listing you are interested in is missing photos it is your responsibility to request them from the seller prior to posting in this thread.

Thanks and be well!

Thanks Much, the all of the rivers are these weird flathead screw-looking ones and this is the best I could get of the back of tag, looks like schmutz on it.

Could someone please authenticate this bag for me if you don’t mind? Greatly appreciated.

What colour thread is at the top of the interior tag? It’s weird, there are aspects that look authentic but those rivets...plus it’s so beat up, the tag’s not in great shape. Have called in the troops to take a look, stand by.

Hello! My quest for the oldies continues...

Item: Balenciaga Motocross Classic City Bag
Link: https://www.therealreal.com/product...s/balenciaga-motocross-classic-city-bag-7tep4
Seller: RealReal
Comments: Attached my own pictures. It feels like the bag has a coating on it. Definitely not as soft as my other "Z" bag. The last picture should show the "coating". Maybe it just needs conditioner...

Thank you!

We all agree the bag looks authentic, the only thing we can come up with is that someone removed the handles to possibly clean them? and reattached them with those screws.

@BBBagHag
but keep in mine that any form of alteration, especially where original parts are replaced, heavily devalues the bag, and it might be difficult to re-sell it down the road

Thank you @kerryisntreal for catching the fact that the whip stitching on the handles is doubled! Since that is only done on giant hardware bags it’s likely the handles were replaced entirely and dyed to match. This bag had very little value IMHO so you may want to keep that in mind.
