CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN AUTHENTICITY QUESTIONS GO HERE.

****

FIRST, PLEASE DO A SEARCH BY SELLER NAME OR ITEM NUMBER TO SEE IF YOUR QUESTION HAS ALREADY BEEN ANSWERED.
This is not a thread to ask general questions about CL, please refer to our main CL forum for information about sizing, seasons, etc. ​

IF THE AUCTION/SHOES HAVE NOT YET BEEN AUTHENTICATED, POST HERE.

This is a free service, so it is imperative that you help our authenticators by using the following format. PLEASE LEAVE A SPACE AFTER THE COLONS.

PLEASE LIMIT YOUR REQUESTS TO THREE (3) PER POST.


FOR AUCTION SITES:

Item: xxxx
Listing number: xxxx
Seller: xxxx
Link: xxxx
Comments: xxxx

If the shoes in question are
NOT ON AN AUCTION SITE, please use the following:

Item Name (if you know it):
Link (if available):
Seller:
Comments:
Please give us as much information as you can and then attach any photos (all authentication must include photos).

This format to prevent duplication requests and to make it simpler for people to 'search' for items which may have been posted previously. If you feel that your post has been skipped, you may repost but please copy and paste the ORIGINAL LINK, do not just copy and paste the link from your post.

Please post ALL of the following photos to insure ACCURATE authentication:

ON A HARD SURFACE, NOT A BED OR CARPETING ;*We need to see the ENTIRE shoe, not a cropped portion.

PROFILE: this is a shot of the entire side of the shoe, and should be taken straight on, NOT from above or below ​

BACK ​

FRONT​

LABEL/LOGO inside the shoe​

SOLE 1: a clear close-up shot of the logo/size stamp, preferably no flash ​

(a macro lens is best for this shot &; it's the flower icon on your camera)​

SOLE 2: a shot of the entire sole​

BOOTS: Please do your best to get a clear shot of the label inside the boot. This can be tricky, but it can be done.

SNEAKERS: For sneakers good quality close-ups of the following details are required:

SIZE STAMP
CL LOGO ON THE INSOLE
& MADE IN& STAMP ON THE OUTSOLE
CL STAMP ON THE OUTSOLE


AUTHENTICATORS: Please utilize the "QUOTE" feature when responding directly to another post. Please do not publicly post details about why you think an item is or is not authentic, sellers of fakes have been known to lurk here and we would not want to help them.

Should one of YOUR items be questioned in this thread, you are welcome to provide additional pictures or materials supporting its authenticity. DO NOT handle disputes with other members in this thread &; take your differences to Private Messages.
****Failure to do so can result in BANNING.****

Hi ladies!

I recently purchased these zoulous. I noticed that the soles seemed a less glossy and the stamp wasn't as "crisp" as any of my other pairs. The silhouette and stitching is flawless so I do think they are authentic but I would just like confirmation as I opened a SNAD case since the seller admitted she had "worn these shoes once and had the soles refinished by the leather spa in NYC" only after I confronted her with the slightly odd soles and the fact that the wonderful Indypup pointed out that there was wear on the heeltaps. She originally sold them as brand new. Worn once and refinished does not equal brand new in my book. As I mentioned the soles are bit strange because of the "refinishing" but otherwise the shoes are the same as my other CLs in terms of stitching, the inner sole stamp, etc.

Indypup mentioned that the less glossy sole and less crisp stamp is probably due to the soles being repainted which is what I believe as well.

I would really appreciate confirmation of my original belief that these are authentic (I do own quite a few pairs so I don't see anything besides the soles which is explained by the "refinishing"). Thank you all so much in advance! [/ATTACH]
