How to spot fake MK DATE CODES MICHAEL Michael Kors bags have date codes. They are hidden very well inside the bags. Date codes are placed on all of his authentic items. To find them, you will usually have to pull the bag inside out. They are along the lining on the inside. It is a small white/clear plastic tab with the words made in China or made in Vietnam or made in wherever, followed by letters and numbers. There will always be four numbers that represent the month and year that the item was made. The letters represent the style of the bag. For example; Jet Set Totes will have the letter B followed by a - and then four numbers. Don’t be afraid if your bag does not have a code but only has a tab that says made in blah blah blah. Many of the older bags do not have the letters and numbers on them but the newer ones are noticed to have them. THE HANGING LOGO CHARM AND THE MICHAEL KORS EMBLEM Both the hanging logo charm and the Michael Kors emblem on the bags are intricately crafted with perfect spacing between letters. THE ZIPPER Most MICHAEL Michael Kors bags use YKK zippers but not all. I noticed that the YKK zippers are used in their more expensive bags while non-branded zippers are used for their cheaper bags. THE LINING You will seldom see the MK Monogram pattern on both the inside and the outside of the bag. It is an either or a neither nor scenario most of the time but not always. I have personally seen an exception to this rule in an Michael Kors Grayson bag. MADE IN CHINA Most MICHAEL Michael Kors bags are made in China. Some are made in Korea, Indonesia, Vietnam and United States. Some used to be made in Italy. THE STITCHING All the stitching should be in a straight line, evenly-spaced and neatly done. The stitching will also never be in a contrasting color compared to the bag. A brown leather bag will never have green stitching and a white bag will never have red stitching. All colors will match perfectly against each other. A tan bag will have tan stitching.
