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'm very new to Purse Forum. I owned 2 Louboutins from the CL boutique. I saw this amazing deal on Poshmark but when I received them, their sole stamp is a little off from my own pair (70mm) and red sole looked like a very slight less deep red (??) and the bottom soles shape looked less curved? I spotted some black paints on the red soles (I used rubbing alcohol to get it off). I'm worried they're not authentic CL shoes. Are they just really OLD versions? Please help authenticate them & thank you! :)

Item Name (if you know it): Kid Leather Simple Pump (85mm?)
Link (if available): https://poshmark.com/listing/Christian-Laboutin-classic-black-pumps-57a641c5bf6df5385d010f7e
Seller: seagrub
Comments: I attached pics comparing to my own Louboutins (left) to the ones I bought just now.

Please refer to page 1 for the correct format-it is not necessary to post comparisons with your other pair.

Please help authenticate, I purchased these from Tradesy

Yoyospina 100mm printed calf patent leopard. Older style
The seller said these did not come with extra heel tips, is this a concern?

These have been tried on by previous owner several times so some slight wear.

Concerns: One of the logos on the bottom sole is not as deep as the other (a guide on here says that can happen with authentics) The insole has some creasing towards toe area but could be from being tried on/worn.
