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.****

I need your opinion on these shoes. I've already purchased them through eBay, but I have this feeling they might be fake. The shoes smell like leather, but not like CL leather smells, CL leather smells.. well different. Then, the seller said she only wore these shoes 3 times, but the condition is really bad for 3 times of wearing. I wore my Bianca's which are also in Kid leather, over 20 times and they still look like new. Also the leather looks different when you look closely compared to my Bianca's, they are both supposed to be kid leather.. Also the inside sole is very loose, it's like you can almost pull it out.. The photo with two shoes, left are the very prive's, right my bianca's.

Please repost in the format specified on the first post of this thread (even if the listing has now ended).

In addition, to authenticate, please upload a shot of the shoe's profile standing on a flta surface as well as a close up of the stamps on the sole and insole.

First photo, left are the VP's, right is Bianca. You can see the difference in structure even though they both should be kid leather.

They look authentic to me but definitely not worn only 3 times so it has kind of "warped" the shape of the shoe. I would say at least 10 times and very abused. =/ I would asked for a partial refund or return them if you are not happy. If someone else want to chime in on the authenticity feel free.
