*CLOSED* Authenticate this FERRAGAMO

[sixballoons]

Thanks for the vote of confidence sixballoons! Ok, I've had a look at these shoes and yes, I do think they look authentic. In the close-up of the buckle on the vamp you can see the lovely quality of the leather and all other aspects look good. Also, in my experience, every pair of Ferragamos I've bought with this sticker on the sole have turned out to be authentic.

Thanks jcoll, I ended up buying these shoes off craigslist which I was really leery of doing but I am happy to report that the leather feels like butter. That is definitely one sign pointing to authenticity!

Hello everyone! I found this Ferragamo bag at an upscale thrift shop in NY. I am definitely not a Ferragamo expert. In fact this will be my first bag by this designer if it is in fact authentic. The interior seems to be a buttery soft leather. I am prepared to face it if the bag turns out to be a fake, but it would be wonderful to add it to my bag collection Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi melancholyway,

I usually don't comment on bags because they're not my area of expertise. However, there's one glaringly obvious flaw with your bag that makes me 99.9% sure the bag isn't authentic. Look at the tag in the last photo - the serial no. and 'MADE IN ITALY' aren't centered on the tag and the 'Y' in ITALY is right on the edge. You won't find this type of flaw on the genuine article.

Hello there jcoll1960!

Thank you so much for your response! I really appreciate you taking the time to respond. Ferragamo is definitely not my area of expertise. I thought that I would take a chance on the bag, but I suppose I should have noticed such obvious issues I think that I will try to return the bag to the shop since I definitely do not want to carry a fake.

Thanks again!

Hi ladies, I know this doesn't have all the info you require as seller is away from the bag and unable to load more photos as requested. Has said will refund if Ferragamo provide written proof that it's not authentic, but 'knows' it's not a fake. I was hoping one of you might be able to just give an opinion generally. Many thanks either way.

Hey awesome authenticators! I'm looking at a bag that I adore but am unsure whether to place a bid. It's currently listed on eBay:

Auth-SALVATORE-FERRAGAMO-Red-Patent-Leather-Vara-Grosgrain-Purse-Bag-MSRP-895

Item # 221219104062

Seller: whitchick

I'm unsure of the grosgrain lining and the metal tag inside.

Anyone have any thoughts? It's my first time posting here and I apologize if I did not format the request properly.

Thanks,
Sarah

Hi Ladies,

I appreciate if someone could help me authenticate these shoes.

Comments: I'm pretty sure that I've bought counterfeit by accident-- I was outside when I placed the bid, and when I got home and took a look at the photos carefully, I realized that I probably purchased a pair of counterfeit.

There is no "MADE IN ITALY" printed on the outer soles; I owned 5 pairs of Vara, and the serial# are all printed on a separated slice of leather; and the seams of the listed shoes don't seem right.

Anyways, I just want to confirm my guess here.

As a matter of fact, I've already paid for these shoes. T_T So I sent out several mails to the seller, asking for a refund. I hope he/she won't ship the shoes tomorrow ( the seller already provided a tracking# tonight T_T)

Hi guys im thinking of buying this pair. Would you be able to give me your opinion on its authenticity? Thanks so much. You guys have done such a great job with this thread *

 

[missjesf]

I really hope you guys can help me out a bit! I am looking for a clutch for my prom and I came across this at work (I work at a thrift store). I am not a fan of knockoffs but I am not familiar with Ferragamo bags. I have asked my boss whether it was a knockoff or authentic and she said it was real, which is why I bought it. Plus, it was in a rush so I had to decide right away. There are some things about this clutch that makes me feel like it's a knockoff but yet the leather and construction seems too neat/nice for a knockoff. Also, I cannot seem to find a picture of this on Google. The 'F' knobs are throwing me off because I have never seen any Ferragamo products like that!! At first I thought it was a Fendi item because of the 'F'.

Really hope this isn't a knockoff... it'd be really embarrassing But thank you in advance!
