Jacquemus Bob: How to Spot a Counterfeit?

The Jacquemus brand became known after showing off its creations in lavender fields or in the middle of fields of wheat. Jacquemus exploded fashion around a booming accessory: The bucket hat. It can be recognized by its edges and its tie cord. Big stars decide to wear this hat and this is how this bob is so successful. However, the success of this accessory could not keep counterfeiters away who rushed to replicate this authentic product from the brand. If you buy it outside of the official store, be wary. Fortunately, there are tips for knowing how to spot a real Jacquemus bob from a fake one.

 

The label

 

It is important to pay special attention to the label of your product. Jacquemus bobs are made in Bulgaria. If the label indicates another source, then it is most certainly a counterfeit.

You can also read and inspect the finishes of the bob. In general, the hats are well finished, the stitching is neat and the details are precise. When you are dealing with a counterfeit Jacquemus brand product, threads very often protrude, the seams are not clean and very misaligned. 

 

The Jacquemus print

 

Regarding the brand inscription on the bob, it is very visible. The logo is written on the front of the hat in silver and in capital letters. The logo must be sewn and not glued to be authentic. It is slightly raised. The brand name is also engraved on the small metal piece which is used to hold the drawstrings on the Artichoke bucket hat.

 

The logo

 

Pay attention to the Jacquemus logo located on the bob. Indeed, this says a lot about the authenticity of the product. If it remains clearly visible on the packaging, it is authentic. If the logo is not visible, be careful.

 

The brand produces its logo in only one way. The brand name remains “JACQUEMUS” written in white on a black background or in black on a white background. The letters are slightly glued and are in capitals. If the logo is completely non-existent on the product, the logo is of poor quality, stuck on or the letters seem very far apart, you are facing an infringement.

 

Quality materials

 

The Jacquemus brand takes great care in the creation of these bucket hats, favoring high quality materials since this is what will guarantee the durability of the product. For this, she opts for 100% cotton. Whether it's the edges of the hat, the adjustable drawstring, or the stitched edges, everything is made of cotton. The quality of a fake Jacquemus bob will be of lower quality and will be visible to the touch of the fabric. The edges of a faux jacquemus bob are mostly weakened.
