Real Vs Fake Gucci Marmont Bag: The Overall Shape

First of all, to compare fake Gucci Marmont bags with real ones, let's start by analyzing the big picture. As you can see there is a big difference between the patterns in these two images below; The authentic shoulder bag's matelasse pattern is much sharper and narrower, while the fake pattern looks smoother.

The leather used for the replica Gucci bags also has some issues and doesn't feel the same.

Looking at the flap pull at the bottom middle section of the handbag, you'll notice that the buckle strap is much longer on the fake.

Although these methods of authenticating Gucci Marmont bags are the most relevant to today's counterfeiting industry, beware that counterfeit manufacturers are advancing at an insane rate.

We find practically every month that it's getting harder and harder to tell genuine items from fakes as replicas get pretty good. You should definitely try the methods in this guide for yourself, but if you've spent a lot of money on an item, it may be wise to consider professional authentication.

How To Spot Fake Gucci Marmont Bag: The Lower Quality Logo

If you look at the GG logo, you might be able to spot some key differences. Remember that there are different qualities of replicas on the market, so we will observe the lower quality version first.

The original Gs don't have this width the same everywhere, being narrower at the top and wider in the middle.

On the other hand, the dimensions in the fake example are not the same; The Gs are wider, thicker and bulkier with a different shade of gold that makes the buckle look more yellow.

Fake Gucci Marmont Bag: The Higher Quality Logo

The higher quality fake Gucci bags have better accuracy, but these still don't duplicate the buckle properly.

While in the previous example the logo was bigger and wider, here we have the opposite case.

The Gs are narrower and smaller on the fake Gucci Marmont when they are meant to be as wide and tall as shown in the authentic example.

The colour itself isn't accurate either, as the expected colour is a bright gold. Also worth mentioning is the folding strap, which is narrower and longer in the replica.

Gucci Marmont Bag Real Vs Fake: The Side Method

Aside from being an accessory, the bag has to be functional.

We can see that the authentic Gucci bag offers more space when you look at the width from the side. On the other hand, the replica model is wider at the bottom and narrows at the top.

Differences can also be observed in the leather: the fake material used in the Gucci Marmont shines, while it is said to be as matt as the original bag.

A few words about the stitching too: you can see how the stitching is almost invisible on the authentic model, while in the second picture it appears very tough. These are uneven and the edges sloppy.

Real Vs Fake Gucci Marmont Bag: The Heart Method

A cute heart shape on the back of the bag is another thoughtful detail.

The heart of the authentic Gucci bag is further down the bag, while the replica is more centered.

The difference is also evident in the shape: the fake heart is not as round and wide as it should be. The seam pattern in the picture on the right is also not so symmetrical.

How To Tell If Gucci Marmont Bag Is Fake: The Smaller Details

The stitching pattern under the flap in the replica Gucci bag is also inconsistent. Note that the authentic stitching does not affect the leather texture. You may also notice that the fake pattern is not as restrained, which changes the overall look of that detail.

A few words about the golden lock - the original is small and thin while the replica lock is way too fat and big. In addition, it again has a different shade of hardware.

Legit Check Gucci Marmont Bag: The Magnetic Lock

The magnetic clasp on the authentic Gucci bag is tiny, which matches the smaller clasp inside the bag.

Following the same logic, the fake lock is much larger. Also note the difference in hardware colours. The flap end should be all round and not sharp, just as shown in the authentic example. Here you should also reconsider the stitch pattern.

How To Legit Check Gucci Marmont: The Buckle

The buckle, similar to other hardware features, has some issues in the replica case; starting from its rounded shape. designed to replicate the shape of the original to the wrong colour.

Also pay attention to the smaller aspects, like the shape of leather details. However, remember that there is always room for some quality control issues.

Fake Vs Real Gucci Marmont Bag: The Label

The authentic label's stitching is tight and it uses high quality threads. Each stitch found in the replica label is almost impossible to see, as the threads used are much thinner.

Unfortunately, an incorrect font has been chosen by the replica factory too. As you can see, the lettering (e.g., "Made in Italy" text) in the original label is engraved so well that it blends into the leather, whereas in the fake picture, text has a different font-weight (it's much bolder).
