How Can I Authenticate a Jimmy Choo Radiant Bag?

A Jimmy Choo store can easily identify an authentic piece of merchandise.

Jimmy Choo uses a high-tech certification process with holospot technology to keep a record of all the purses they produce. While the Jimmy Choo Radiant handbag has several distinctive qualities, such as the quality of the leather, along with the hardware and liner, the only way for a buyer to be absolutely certain of the purse's authenticity is to check with an official Jimmy Choo store.

Instructions

1. Check to see if the Jimmy Choo Radiant bag came with a separate holospot identification card. The card will list an identification number.

2. Look carefully on the inside of the bag to find a small, rectangular computer chip affixed firmly to the purse.

3. Take the purse to an official Jimmy Choo store. Stores locations can be found on the jimmychoo.com website.

4. Ask the sales representative to scan the holospot chip on the inside of your purse. If the bag and chip are authentic, the chip will upload the Radiant bag's identification number to the representative's computer. If you have the identification card with you, the two numbers should match.
