I pointed out to the seller it was totally illegal. It was in a good quality, supple black pebble leather, originally known as Scotch Grain, with the cheapest possible tan coloured trim and badly sewn. I am not kidding! I bought one and inside was a Made in Korea label. Believe it or not, there are now simple little bags circulating on the Internet bearing the logo of a very good British brand, Tula, and above it and as part of the branding – the D&B duck motif. This site is invaluable if you are buying secondhand. So with no further ado, I will just post a brief comment from the owner of each bag and my notes and the pics in hopes it will be helpful for your future shopping. When I call a bag “fake”, it is usually a bag that looks nothing like any bag Dooney & Bourke has ever made – it is just a fabrication of parts and not authentic. I want to thank these readers as well as those past and future for their willingness to send photos with details so they as well as others can benefit from a Dooney community awareness of the imposters out there !īy the way, when I use the word “counterfeit” bag, I usually mean the bag looks like an actual Dooney & Bourke style but is not authentic. These 4 e-mails came in one right after the other at the end of May and one right after another they showed fake/counterfeit Dooney bags. As you can see, due to the volume of questions we receive, it takes about two months for a question to work its way to the top of the queue.
