It has become a crucial topic for every bag lover to discern the authenticity of designer handbags. This blog post will take you to a quick comparison between real and fake YSL Niki Bag, providing you with authentication guides and techniques.
YSL Logo
Real:
- The authentic logo has a textured pattern, and the leather and metal logos fit together perfectly.
- The font is smooth, and the intersections of the letters are clearly polished.
Fake:
- The intersections are roughly polished.
- You might notice water ripples or variations in laser background color.
Metal Ring Engraving
Real:
- The font looks edgy, kind of wide and flat, with sharp and clear edges.
Fake:
- The font isn’t smooth enough; it lacks rounded corners and appears wavy or rippled.
Shoulder Strap Engraving
Real:
- The authentic one has connected “N” and “T,” with special fonts for “R” and “E.”
- The font is smooth and feels flat to the touch, without any indentations.
Fake:
- The font noticeably sinks in and feels distinct when touched.
Stamping
Real:
- The authentic logo letters and the origin label, when viewed as a whole, appear slightly thicker and lean towards a square shape.
- The gold-stamped text is rich in ink and has thicker strokes.
Fake:
- The logo letters and the origin label, when viewed as a whole, appear somewhat slender and not square-shaped.
- The gold-stamped text has less ink and thinner strokes.

My YSL Nike rep arrived: DHGate. Unfortunately, they sent a small when I wanted a medium and now say the factory is only making small. I can’t believe this bag is so expensive in authentic. It’s quite simple
Thinking to sell my 3 auth Stella bags, auth Gucci belt and sunnies to fund rep purchases… yay or nay 😆 🤔
Has anyone heard of xgg factory before ? I asked my dealer for a niki baby replica bag and she sent me a factory photo saying it’s from xgg factory. I’ve never heard of it so I’m a little bit scared for the quality 😰
