In order to avoid disappointment, as well as waste of money, it is important to know how to distinguish the fakes from the original shoes and today let's find out how to do it together. techwadia
Louboutin shoes: the box
First let's start from the box. You will never find a pair
of original Louboutin shoes without the light brown rigid cardboard box . The
paper is stretched to perfection, without cuts or folds, but above all it is
lacquered. In the center of the lid there is the inscription " Christian
Louboutin ", at the bottom right the inscription " Paris ".
Furthermore, on the original box there is always a sticker
with the name of the model, the type of leather and the size written. If
there is no box or you do not find the white label indicating the model and
size, it is obviously a fake.
Dust bag and spare cleats
Inside the original shoe box there is a red dust bag
made with a particularly soft and resistant fabric . This bag features
the same logo found on the box , but in black; it is placed, neatly folded, on
the white tissue paper.
The fakes , on the
other hand, are usually sold with two
small dust bags , one for each shoe , placed on a shapeless mass of tissue
paper. The original shoes, on the other hand, do not have plastic bags, but are
simply protected by several layers of white tissue paper.
In addition to the dust bag there is an identical , smaller
size bag which contains 2 spare cleats .
In case of counterfeiting, however, the studs are contained in a nylon bag.
The sole and the insole
The sole of the original Louboutin shoes is fire red, glossy version . If, on the other
hand, the coloring tends to a dark red, if not fuchsia, it is a fake. If the
shoe is white, the outer edge of the sole is the same color, never in contrast
. In addition, the logo is lightly embossed under the sole, without grooves or
smudges .
The Louboutin shoes also have a soft
cushion under the insole that helps make walking more comfortable. The
fakes, on the other hand, are stiff to fit and are generally so tight that you
have to buy a larger size.
At this point we discovered together the characteristics of
the original shoes and how to distinguish them from fake ones. In this regard,
we remind you that Louboutin shoes do not have any certificate of authenticity
.
