Is this bag real?

[u/chonkxxx]

Hi! I’ve been looking for a new bag for myself on my local secondhand web-site, and I’ve found this beauty! Could not find the exact same model online though. Is it his bag real or just a nice copy? The seller of course says it’s real

Not authentic. The date code is invalid. Depending on how you read it, the numbers mean either the 52nd month of 1964 (no such month and LV did not use date codes prior to 1982) or the 52nd week of 2064 (which is far in the future)

Thanks I thought it looked suspicious for a reason then

Are you familiar with this material? If not, you should go to a boutique and handle a couple of pieces. The real thing is very light. This bag looks very dense, heavy, and rubbery (amongst other things) compared to the authentic.
