This Longchamp bag is made in France. These are photos of an original Longchamp bag. I am not claiming to be an expert. If you want to know if you bought a FAKE Longchamp bag, consult the boutique, capeesh? I DO NOT AUTHENTICATE. Let me reiterate that for your peace of mind, buy only from Longchamp boutique.
In my previous post, you learned about how to spot a fake Longchamp. To help you visualize the difference between a fake and the original one, I borrowed a fake tote bag.
