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,

I went through with purchasing these shoes and they have just arrived and I have a few concerns about their authenticity.

1. The writing on the box is flat not raised if you run your hand over like my other louboutin boxes, also there is no louboutin sign on the side of the lid of the box.

2. There is a lot of sticky residue in the interior where the inner sole meets the sides of the shoe. Also the insole seems slightly lifting in areas.

3. The dustbag is darker and the material is showing a lot of age which doesn't really fit with being told the item was only used once for a photo shoot.

The seller said that as they had been used once for a photo shoot outside that's why the soles had been repainted.

Any help on these would be much appreciated, I've attached a number of photos.

Thanks in advance!

Sorry it's only allowing me to attach one photo at a time, even after I compress them !

Could somebody authenticate these?

Model: Christian Louboutin Lou Spikes black in size 41

Link: http://www.marktplaats.nl/a/kleding...c1254e7aa85845826d5acd&previousPage=mympBuyer

No red flags that I found but I just want to make sure wheter these are authentic or not.

Thanks in advance!

*Note: the pictures of the shoe were a bit on the dark side so I made them a little lighter, but it made the black of the shoe a bit lighter too.
