There are 5 easy-to-see features of an authentic Louis Vuitton Speedy bag in the Monogram canvas print. 1)The Monogram Canvas. 2) The Vachetta. 3) The Date Code. 4)The Chaps(flat or puffy) & inner pocket zippered or not (REMEMBER THE YEAR 2015!) & finally: 5) Look to the LEFT SIDE. (& a bonus tip at the end!). Thank you to Winnie with Vintage Heirloom & Purseforum for teaching me all this. Thanks for watching! And stay tuned for my next video when you get to meet my new Furbit! :) XO, Jen
