I'm not sure. They are on the inside of the handles, so not super noticeable when carrying.Do you think there is any way I could fix it?
I wonder if you could use small binder clips on the handles to squeeze it together?You're right, but when you know, it bugs you
I agree on all points, it definitely muddles the perception of the brand. If you're absolutely in love with a bag, it doesn't really matter if it's an outlet or not. My first MK bag was from an outlet & I still love it. They just don't have all the bells & whistles of a boutique bag.Is there an easy way to know which piece is an outlet one?
MK gets a lot of hate in the luxury community and I wanted to check it out for myself.
I went on the website and found two bags I'm interested in, but I don't want to waste time and money if they are really not worth it.

The pricing of those two is similar to other contemporary brands but I'm still not sure.
The naming is very confusing. I know the brand is Michael Kors, but then you have "MICHAEL Michael Kors" and "Michael Kors Collection".
If anything, it impacts the brand's perception. How can you make sales if the potential customer doesn't know what they are getting.

I believe it's an outlet bag.Does anyone know if the Mk Mercer large tote on this site it made for the outlet, or if it’s just on sale?https://www.michaelkors.com/product...D5vZNC90aAi3REALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds&color=1227
Thanks so much that really helps!MK Outlet products always begin with '35' code.
Michael by Michael Kors styles start with '30'. That is the easiest way to recognise these.
However I do agree with the previous statement in this thread, what is important is if you love the bag. If you don't like the quality, you can always return it.

Very cute bags, they do not appear to be outlet bags! Price is usually a dead giveaway to an outlet bag. They mark the original retail price way up and the "sale" price is pretty reasonable.
