Is your Lowepro bag Original?

Lowepro, being one of the most popular camera bag in the market, has become the target of pirates.

Yes, there are many imitate Lowepro bags in the market. How to differentiate if your Lowepro bags are original or not? Take note that only original Lowepro bags carry product lifetime warranty, while the imitate bags still selling at similar or slightly cheaper than orignal Lowepro bags, carry no warranty and no quality control.

Original Lowepro bags have white tag inside the bag with a red circle QC stamp. See picture below:

Now you can go check your Lowepro bags, do they have the white tag above? :)

Hi tomatoinc,

Did you bought your Lowepro bag in USA? When did you bought it? Lowepro has big factory now in China, but I am not sure if ALL models are made in China or not.

To answer your question, yes I am sure mine is real, as I bought it from the official distributor and the white tag verification method is what suggested by Lowepro to differentiate imitate and original Lowepro.

I bought my lowepro kit (micro trekker and some lens cases) from lowepro-online.co.uk. looks like they are all ‘original’ :)
