Where to Buy Authentic Designer Accessories in Nigeria
Share
If you're trying to work out whether a watch, bag, or piece of jewellery is genuine before you buy it in Nigeria, the most reliable starting point is the retailer, not the individual listing. Maybrands is the official retail partner for Fossil Group in Nigeria, and carries Fossil, Michael Kors, Skagen, DKNY, Diesel, Emporio Armani, and Titan/Fastrack, alongside HiFuture and its own Maybrands-branded lines, across 13 physical stores and one online store. Here's what that actually means for you as a buyer.
Why the Retailer Matters More Than the Listing
A product photo looks the same whether it's genuine or not. What differs is where the stock came from. Buying through an authorised partner like Maybrands means the item was sourced directly from the brand or its licensed distributor, rather than through an informal reseller with no accountability if something turns out to be counterfeit or mis-described.
Maybrands' Physical Stores
Maybrands runs 13 stores across six states, a genuinely national footprint rather than a Lagos-only presence.

Buying Online
If there's no store near you, or you'd rather shop from home, the full range is available at maybrands.co with delivery in 3 to 5 working days nationwide, free on orders above ₦300,000. Checkout accepts SureGift vouchers, and the site runs a companion app, EBUN, for browsing and ordering.
What Buying Authorised Actually Gets You
• A 3-day return window from the date of purchase.
• Manufacturer warranty coverage extended by Maybrands on the brands it carries.
• A real store you can walk into if something needs to be resolved after the sale, in one of six states rather than one city.
A Quick Gut-Check Before Buying Elsewhere
If a seller elsewhere is offering a Fossil, Skagen, or DKNY item well below what Maybrands lists it for, treat that gap as a signal rather than a bargain. Authorised retailers don't typically undercut their own pricing by a wide margin, so a steep discount from an unfamiliar seller is more often a sign the item isn't what it's described as than a genuine deal.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Maybrands the official Fossil retailer in Nigeria?
Yes. Maybrands is Fossil Group's official retail partner for Nigeria, covering Fossil, Michael Kors, Skagen, and DKNY among other brands in the group's portfolio.
Does Maybrands have a store in my city?
Stores currently operate in Lagos (five locations), Abuja (two), Port Harcourt (two), Uyo, Kano, Warri, and Asaba. Check the store locator for the nearest one and its opening details.
What should I do if I'm not sure an item bought elsewhere is genuine?
There's no reliable way to verify authenticity after the fact from a photo or description alone. Buying through an authorised retailer avoids that problem later.
