Shebag best replica Chanel 25P kelly bag hardware craftmanship review(Mar 2026 updated)
Today we present a craftsmanship analysis of the Chanel 25P Kelly bag.
The first step to making a top-tier replica is to purchase an authentic bag, take it apart, and examine its construction in detail under magnification.
Only Shebag can execute this to perfection.
Shebag uses imported EVA foam, the exclusive material for the Kelly bag.
Combined with specialized padding strips, it creates a full, three-dimensional effect on the bag’s key areas.
The central stitch along the hardware on the bag’s edge is done entirely by hand.
We use 9-ply Safil thread, with two parallel heavy needles precisely aligned to the hardware holes.
We have also studied Chanel’s letter engraving craft under a 400x magnifying glass.
The middle bar of the letter E is the shortest, and the bottom bar is the longest.
The letter L forms a perfect 90° vertical right angle.
The metal must be firm and rigid, with no wavy lines.
Only when the hardware hardness meets the standard will the edges of the letters not sink or create ripples.
We have carefully studied the shape of every letter.
The letter H is also stamped using high-precision molds, with sharp edges and no burrs. The internal groove features a fine texture. The crossbar of the H is positioned slightly upward, making the upper part narrower and the lower part wider.
The beveled curve of the letter C is inherent to the mold.
The color of the inner groove matches the hardware color.
We have also meticulously studied the letter A.
It has a square overall shape, with a flat top instead of a pointed one, forming a triangular space in the middle.
At 400x magnification, the internal structure of the lettering is clearly defined. The dual side grooves of the letters are precision-finished with no residue and feature a consistent, substantial width.
Please note that the lines of each letter exhibit high rigidity, with no waviness whatsoever.
The hardware molds undergo mirror polishing, resulting in sharper and clearer lines and contours for the engraved lettering.
The hardware mold is integrally molded, and the lettering is formed in one piece as well.
The inner groove features chamfered edges, creating a distinct light-and-shadow contrast and giving the lettering a three-dimensional appearance.
The inner corners have a smooth, rounded finish at the closing strokes.
The lettering on the hardware mold undergoes vertical plunge grinding, which sharply defines and accentuates the letter contours and fine details.
At the letters C and H, the edges of the lettering have been precision-chamfered and polished, exhibiting distinct high-gloss highlights.
Inside the Double C lock hole on the front, the mold parting line is created by stamping.
The lines are uniform, natural and refined.
At the intersection of the Double C lock closure, one side is chamfered with polished transition marks.
The joint of the Double C adopts a seamless connection technique.
For the Double C engraving on the hardware, the mold is produced by EDM (electrical discharge machining), then given a mirror polish to retain the curves and precise dimensions.
