Prada Bag: What's No One Has Discussed

How to Spot an Authentic Prada Bag

prada bags small bags are distinguished by their sleek, modernist lines and prada handbags Mini elegance. Made from unique materials, these bags were designed and crafted entirely in-house.

To identify authentic Prada bag, look for the brand stamp on the lining inside. It should be stitched with two to three lines, ideally including PRADA and MILANO.

Brand Stamp

Prada is known to have minimalist, sleek silhouettes. However, the brand likes to add a touch of flair. The Cleo is one instance of a satchel that first appeared in the Multiple Views Spring/Summer 2021 collection in the year before Raf was named cocreative director. The bag features curvaceous lines that appear to be bouncing around with energy. It also comes in an array of colorways--including inky black whites, milky whites, and pistachio with a powdery coating. This version of the Cleo bag is made from light spazzolato leather and brushed calfskin, which gives it an even softer sheen than patent leather. If you're looking for something a bit more adventurous then the bejeweled Cleo is available.

Authentic prada bags small bags feature a logo or tag inside, depending on the style. For older models it will have three lines that read "prada bag shoulder MILANO MADE in Italy,' while newer styles will include two lines that say 'Made in Italy'. The logo is embossed on a ceramic plaque on bags with fabric linings, and is also stitched on a leather patch for small bags, or on non-leather versions.

The tag should always be in line with the color of the interior lining. If it does not this is a huge red flag. In addition, the tag should not be made of plastic or cloth.

Real Prada zippers are stamped on the back with the name of one of the company's five zipper manufacturers. Check to see if this information is on the bottom of your pullers. Fake zippers are usually shorter and wider with cutouts that do not match up with the slide of the zipper.

Triangle Logo Plaque

The plaque is fixed to the bag using an elongated fastener. It has four lines, including the brand name, the city of origin (Milano), and the coat of arms. The plaque is secured to the bag. If it is not centered or it lifts up, it's a sign of fake. A genuine logo should have the corners rounded, not square ones.

The interior of an authentic Prada bag is made of embossed leather or jacquard fabric. The logo or rope chain line will be printed on the lining fabric. The lines are printed in different directions with the first being printed right-side up and the rope chain line being printed upside-down. A genuine lining will feature a small square that is stitched into the interior pouch. The square shows the factory that produced the bag.

A authentic Prada bag comes with a product card as well as a dust bag. The card, which is a piece of black paper with a sticker attached contains more information than the label on the bottom of the bag. The card could include the bag's serial number or barcode, which can be used to access more details on the Prada website.

Examining the hardware is a second way to verify the authenticity of the Prada bag. The clasps, zippers and feet of the bag must be made of silver or gold. If they are not, it's a signal that the bag is fake. Make sure that the metal hardware is stamped with the Prada logo printed on it. Additionally, the zippers must run smoothly and not snag. The company has used a variety of zipper manufacturers over time including LAMPO, YKK and Riri, so be sure to verify which ones your bag has.
