*CLOSED* Authenticate This Tokidoki / LeSportSac

[Hyacinth]

lilsunshine. i am 100% sure the bag you posted is fake. you can find print reference picture on tokidoki's blog. people always use a LeSportsac print and add toki-look-alike hardware (rainbow zipper and qee) and claims them to be toki. the print on the bag is a real LeSportsac print by-the-way. it is called june bug if memory serves me right.

lilsunshine, d1000 is absolutely correct, your bag is a very bad fake. It's not a Toki or even a basic LeSportsac. That rainbow design on your zippers is usually a big red flag. The name of the print was "Junebug" and it was released in the classic LS line in February of 2007. If you search Ebay using the name of the print sometimes you can find one.

Be careful even with regular "classic" LeSportsac, there are plenty of fakes of those too.

cannot really tell by the pics. pls ask seller to send you pic of the bottom of the zipper pull... it should have 'riri' on it.

i wonder what this mean? they wrote the sku# inside the bag?

Dear ladies, would appreciate if someone can help me to determine if the authentic Lakeside Lesportsac bag ever came with metal adjustable buckle and metal piece that is attached to the bag itself? The bag which I ordered from bags&bags sent me one with a metal adjustable buckle and I can see from Lesportsac online site that the classic hobo comes with plastic strap buckle and side plastic piece connecting to the bag. I also see this http://www.taschen-welt.de/LeSportsac-Tasche-Classic-Hobo-Lakeside.htm

Thanks in advance for any replies.

They all look good to me

Are you deciding on which? I love the Adios Zucca
Of course, I'm biased since I own 5 Zuccas
But they are all lovely!

I'm with you. I love the the Adios Zucca and am planning to buy this baby and the Serena Discoteca. I'm going to place orders now before they're gone.

Thanks again!

The picture shown on the website was not the actual bag's photo and it only mentioned that it does not come with a matching pouch. I can't remember if they stated it was a showroom sample. In the end, I decided to email them and their director of IT replied, saying that they are LeSportsac, is that authentic enough? Oh well, case closed. Thanks for your help d1000!

Yes, that is what he said and I don't blame him. After all, the bag looks and feels real in every sense except for the metal parts which are plastic in the conventional hobo. I didn't even notice it if not for the buyer who hi-lighted the difference to me and requested that I prove this bag is authentic (I had to sell it and some others to buy a toki ). Anyway, I am just glad that I got a reply from LSS which I am able to forward to the buyer.

I am also positive that they only sell authentic bags as I have bought bags from them previously and they all looked like the ones sold in retail stores. However, that lakeside was my first and only classic hobo hence I had no idea it was "different" from conventional ones. Blame it on my "luck". Anyway, I haven't heard from the buyer after I forwarded his reply to her. Worse is, I would refund her in full and get to keep a one of a kind hobo
