Is there a Louis Vuitton outlet store?

Can we trust outlet stores selling handbags?

Stores claiming to sell Louis Vuitton handbags as outlets are not associated with Louis Vuitton. Indeed Louis Vuitton products are exclusively sold in Louis Vuitton stores, through Louis Vuitton official website www.louisvuitton.com and through www.24s.com*. You should also note that Louis Vuitton never discounts its products. Louis Vuitton items advertised as discounted on the Web are invariably fake.

So merchandise sold on these websites will only lead to disappointment particularly to those seeking high standards of quality and craftsmanship. While reduced prices and product photos displayed on these outlet sites may seem attractive, the truth behind these items is far less appealing. Before clicking and purchasing please consider the final product you are looking to purchase and what you will receive.

Beware of misleading Louis Vuitton outlets online. Online outlets appear to offer beautiful goods made with quality metals, fabrics and hardware synonymous to the genuine Louis Vuitton brand, but in actuality they offer faulty merchandise. While Louis Vuitton produces elegant and refined handbags, watches and accessories to endure a lifetime, a bag claiming to be a Louis Vuitton handbag purchased from a fictitious online outlet will easily deteriorate or hold noticeably poor construction.

Two things you should know about Louis Vuitton:

-    Louis Vuitton products are exclusively sold in Louis Vuitton stores and through Louis Vuitton official website www.louisvuitton.com and through www.24s.com.

-    Louis Vuitton never discounts its products. Louis Vuitton items advertised as discounted on the Web are invariably fake.

As the leading luxury brand, Louis Vuitton continues to be a primary target for counterfeiters around the world today. Louis Vuitton vigorously and systematically protects the exclusive right to use its registered trademarks by taking legal actions worldwide.

Louis Vuitton never hosts any sales and Louis Vuitton products are exclusively sold in Louis Vuitton stores and through Louis Vuitton official website www.louisvuitton.com and through www.24s.com*.

The low prices advertised by sites claiming to be a Louis Vuitton outlet store are reduced at such level for one reason – the wallets, watches and handbags are likely made of cheap, poor materials that will not stand up to any wear or use. Within a few weeks of receiving these items, differences are likely to show as the material wears and deteriorates. Instead of genuine Louis Vuitton items from the official stores, unscrupulous sellers will attempt to trick customers by affixing the trusted Louis Vuitton name or LV initials to inferior merchandise.

Counterfeiting Louis Vuitton is stealing the craftsmanship from artisans responsible for its success and is infringing on the creativity of our designers.
