Questions About Vintage Shell Belt
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Authentic Gucci leather belts have tight and even stitching — imperfect seams could indicate the belt is a fake. The leather itself should have a consistent texture, and all metal parts are smooth and durable. Fakes can copy the exact details of authentic Gucci serial numbers, but they often print details like the logo in the wrong font with poor readability. Compare the serial number to pictures of a genuine article to help ensure authenticity. Shop a collection of vintage Gucci belts from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
