Gucci Marmont Mini Camera Bag in black by Old Cobbler (OC)
Old Cobbler, aka OC, sells the Gucci Marmont Mini Camera Bag in black and has been reviewed by many Reddit users as being the closest to the retail bag. We will point out the flaws of his bag in this review, and the pictures were taken from a Reddit user, “Sexandthencity.”
Flaw 1
Let’s compare the differences on the front side of the inner tag on both Gucci Marmont Mini Camera bags.
Old Cobbler embossing is less prominent than the authentic; it is self-evident by looking at the copyright “R” symbol. Furthermore, the embossed words on the tag are bold in Old Cobbler’ tag. On the other hand, the authentic words are thin and prominent.
Flaw 2
The Old Cobbler GG metal logo is less nuanced, colored, and shiny than the authentic metal logo from both images above. Do note that the lighting plays a small part in the shininess of the Gucci logo.
Flaw 3
Looking at the stitching pattern on the rear side of both bags, the Old Cobbler stitches appear to be less deep and fit into the bag than the authentic. We are not sure about the leather quality, but the reviews on Reddit mentioned that it has excellent leather quality.
Flaw 4
The chains on both bags are slightly different. The Old Cobbler’s chain appears to be more dark bronze than golden, perhaps due to lighting. Furthermore, the chain looks more like a toy chain compared to the authentic chain.
Flaw 5
Every Gucci Camera Mini bag has the amount of 9 chevrons, and the Old Cobbler bag only has up to 8 chevrons. This could be the apparent flaw of the bag.
Conclusion
Overall, OC’s bag has a few flaws but is considered minor except for flaw 5. This bag will be excellent for most outfits if one doesn’t care about the number of chevrons. As always, peace out and stay vibey.
