How to Determine The REAL Prada Bag

With so many knock-offs and fake bags out there, one must be very careful when shopping for a genuine article. When shopping online, it's very difficult to examine your prospective purchase so many thieves will use this medium to scam the unwary buyer. The best way to shop for a real, genuine Prada handbag is by doing it in person. We'll now examine some major differences between genuine Prada handbags and fake or knock-off Prada-like products.

First, let's talk about the zipper. This is something that many shoppers do not even consider when looking at bags. However, like any other product, there are poor, good and excellent quality zippers too. Guess which one Prada bag collection uses? Right…..excellent zippers from excellent and high quality manufacturers such as Riri, IPI and Lampo. With zippers of this quality the zipping action is not catchy or rough. It is a very smooth motion and feels like the zipper has been drenched in a lubricating fluid. It has a very smooth action both opening and closing. The name of the zipper manufacturer will be in an embossing on one side of the zipper catch. The catch is the part that actually touches the zipper. We're not referring to the pull but the portion that pulls the zipper sides together. Look for this quality.

Another fine feature of Prada handbags is the packing. Prada would not take the chance of ruining their fine leather handbag by placing it into a plastic wrap. Rather, it will be without any wrapping, simply placed in a box unless it is on display. If you see a handbag that is purported to be a Prada and it has plastic or paper wrapping anywhere on it, the chances are very good that it is counterfeit. If you're looking for a real Prada bag, pass on this one.

Prada marks their products with special tags. They generally use a logo plate with the company logo on it and it is attached with even, stout stitching. You should look for a tag on the lining too. It, as well, should be straight, and well stitched without blemishes. The letters on the Prada brand name, you'll notice, are just slightly raised as though they were embossed on the product and note the "R" in the word Prada. Make sure that the R has a curved leg. Some fakes will have a straight leg and some of the older products may have a somewhat straighter leg than the more contemporary pieces.

Remember that Prada is not usually found in the less sophisticated shops but rather in the more prominent and much better known and trusted stores such as Saks, Neiman-Marcus or Bergdorf-Goodman.

These are a few of the secrets to acquiring a genuine Prada handbag rather than a counterfeit one. Use common sense and remember, if it appears to be too good to be true, it probably is.

Remember another thing. Prada luggage and diaper bags, as well as Prada shopping bags are of excellent quality too.
