What does coded mean in luxury bags?
The first and third numbers are the week of the year it was manufactured, and the second and fourth numbers are the year. A code MM3048 from this era would show a bag made on the 34th week of 2008. The MM code is for a factory in France. Codes from 1990 to 2006. Like the ones above, it's two letters and four digits.Jun 18, 2022

No. Nothing is stealth in the age of social media. Sorry.

Yes, I think this is the same concept as stealth wealth. So instead of wearing a Chanel or Louis Vuitton with obvious logos most people know, it’s something more low key. Valextra, Loewe, and probably still things like Bottega and Celine which are obvious to people who are into fashion but less well known and logo covered than others.
