How to Authenticate a Longchamp LE PLIAGE Cosmetic Pouch with top handle
As I worked to confirm the pouch's authenticity, I turned my attention to the buttons. It's essential to note that there are two types of buttons used in real Longchamp Le Pliage bags: one with stripes and the other with circles. But, when it comes to the Le Pliage Cosmetic Pouch with a top handle, only the button with circles around it is used. This is a critical detail to consider when checking if your pouch is genuine.
Additionally, it's important to mention that the "original" button is indeed used in Longchamp's products but not in this specific Le Pliage model. The "original" button can be found in larger Le Pliage variations like the XL and travel ones.
I peeked inside, and there it was – a clear giveaway. The stitching and overall finish inside the fake pouch were just sloppy, nowhere near the neatness you'd expect from an authentic Longchamp.
And now, for the inside tag – a quick giveaway. The fake one proudly mentions "Made in France." But here's the deal, these little pouches aren't made in France. They come from China, Romania, or Tunisia.
I hope this article has been helpful in guiding you to authenticate and distinguish between genuine and counterfeit Longchamp Le Pliage cosmetic pouches with top handles.
