Authenticate This Balenciaga

[Vlad]

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!

Hello (again),

Here comes purchase 2 of 3 that needs authentication Once again I am unsure of what is needed but I have tried taking photos of everything that might be interesting. I have my doubts actually, but hopefully I am wrong.

Mini mini first

Hi everyone!
I just wanted to ask for those who own hourglass bag, does it have a serial code, and where does it normally locate at? Thank you!

Hello again!

I have now bought a Balenciaga leather motorcycle jacket
Are you able to authenticate clothes? If not, could you please see if there are any obvious red flags?

I tried to takes photos of details, but there are not so many things to use for authentication.

I'm not that familiar with the hourglass but check inside the zipped pocket if there is one. Or down a side seam.

Hmmm, I don't recognize the zipper logo although I don't see anything else that raises flags. Does anyone have a mini with this zipper head?

Yes! This was exactly my doubt. Everything looks like other mini mini First that I have found pictures of - but there are zero pictured of the zipper head (it isn’t too easy to bend the zipper) and I thought Balenciaga always used Lampo zippers.

I know @CeeJay owns one or many MMF

I had one and it was a Lampo as I recall. The star stamp on the interior is one that Bal used to indicate a staff gift or purchase but the zipper head is really throwing me.

Please help me with authenticating this Balenciaga Le Cagole XS! I bought this off of Depop and received it today. While the seller claims they only sell authentic items, I’m still very on edge and recently have felt confident that it’s not authentic for multiple reasons. It also has a strong plasticity/chemical smell. Their account hat been deleted and so has the listing been, so I’m not able to link to it here. Just need a confirmation so I can file a claim against the seller!

I'll start by saying I'm not an expert on Le Cagole. Can you please take another photo of the interior tag fully facing the camera with as little glare as possible? Also pics of the back of the zipper head and the rivet holding the handle on?

Taken a few more pictures of the interior tag and serial number, hope these are better! The tag with the serial number though is so shiny I’m not even able to get a better look of it in person than what it looks like in the pictures.
