Do you know whether the L.A.M.B. bags are being faked now? I suddenly have seen a whole bunch of rasta designs "new with tags" on ebay. I'm beginning to become suspicious. What do your think, is this one real?

So far the only bags that have been somewhat copied are the white leopard but they were not replicas, they were really bad "inspired" bags. I think alot of the NWT bags are probably from the recent sample sale they had in NY, but this one looks to be in brand spanking new condition. The only thing that is strange is the handles look like they are black instead of brown but it could be just my computer. I think it is real though.

Saw the same bag and thought the same thing and then remembered seeing a photo of one of the Montegos posted in the recent SS in NYC - maybe they were there as the seller is just a state away (maybe ppl hoard bags w/ their tags and wait til years after to sell ha ha.. hm, maybe)

I saw that Mandeville too and thought the black & white stripe looked awfully shiny & a little too perfect. But I still think it's authentic as well.

Would you believe me if I thought the same, re: hm, awfully shiny and a bit too perfect.

Good luck, Ayankari! Let us know how it turns out; she's a little piece of perfection :)

^^LOL, it's pretty noticeable, huh? It could just be the camera though and the way the pictures came out. The colors look very saturated as well. If it's a pristine Rasta Mandeville though, what a coup!


I wonder if the Chloe the seller also has for sale is authentic. Could give us an idea about this seller if we could tell...:thinkin:

That's kinda what caught my attention - the overly saturated super white stripe and super black stripes surrounding it. I think also cause the angle doesn't do much in the way of capturing the light shadowing/reflecting off of the black parts of the stripes (e.g. alike the left part of the strap pictured). Apart from the lines being super straight, there's this smooth weirdness of the stripes. But again, that doesn't mean it isn't real.

I did find it interesting that this bag has several photos and looks to be nicely fluffed w/ tissue (no photos of the inside though). Yet, the Chole has two photos, could use a little tissue stuffing and better shots.

... apologies if the comments are causing more anxiety/questioning - just observations ... and by NO means an expert! (just sayn')

Hi ladies, please, can you help me with this L.A.M.B. Worthington Dayglo Sunrise? I´m not familiar with this brand and this is my first L.A.M.B. bag. Many thanks!
