Tory Burch **CLOSED** Authenticate This TORY BURCH

[harlem_cutie]

Ah really???
Well, honestly I'm not sure my bag is authentic.. Because this is my first TB bag, and I can't find the differences with the fake one..

Thanks so much for your kindness, Harlem_Cutie[emoji173]️

Sort of way to tell - look at the alignment of the stitching on the side seams and the wrapping on the handles. Also, the puffiness of the quilting is right. I actually own the color Red Agate in this style so I pulled it out to check and all details match. I bought mine almost two years ago from the TB website for $275. Light Oak and Black are the colors that are most often faked.

By the way, my main concern is the raised ribbing around the left, bottom and right of the flap, it's not 'raised' or thick/bulging enough when I compare with the TB.com pictures. Also, the tory burch logo on the top-centre of the flap, again I feel it's not 'raised' enough, not enough edges, or too 'rounded'

I think your instincts are correct. The embossing isn't deep enough on the main emblem, the serifs are WRONG and there are a few other details that don't look good to me. Basically, I think it's a good fake but still a fake. The seller is using stock pics for all of their pics which raises even more red flags. I would try to return if you can. Good luck!

Hi harlem cutie, thanks.
I checked out 3 Tory Burch stores today and checked every piece of Fleming small convertible bag that I could. It seems that the embossing is sometimes 'deep' and sometimes 'shallow'. Particularly the older (in terms of production dates), older display pieces had deep embossing and then the newer pieces (meant for sale) had shallow embossing. I took some pictures where the embossing was 'shallow' - see below. It therefore seems that my own 'theory' on the depth of the embossing of the main emblem may be incorrect.

However, having said that, may i ask specifically which Serifs on the bag are wrong, and which other details do you have a concern about ? Would you mind sharing with me ?

Since my main theory about the depth of embossing may now not be correct, I'd like to understand the other concerns that there may be on this bag so that I can make an overall assessment and decide what to do on this bag - thanks

Even with the shallow embossing the serifs are clearly defined on authentic versions. Look for all of the points on the "T" emblem. There should also be a clearly defined space in the middle of the "T". Fleming bags are harder to authenticate because the fakes are really good. Date code on the "made in china" tag is also likely incorrect for this color code as this was a Fall color. I'm not 100% sure on this point because the code format may have changed. I would return and call a TB outlet to see if they have this style. Outlets ship anywhere in the US. Good luck!
