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.

These look good but I'd like to see a full profile shot of the shoe (the one uploaded is cut off). The interior just looks like it was stored improperly, not a huge deal. =)
thanks so much for getting back to me, here are some more pictures:

Hi ladies,

I need help! I recently bought those shoes on ebay. Could you tell me if they are authentic? it's really different than the other pair I own, so I'm a little unsure about it.

thanks!
Please post according to the first page so others can search the postings. We will also need to see a better picture of the sole and a profile of the shoe on a flat surface not at an angle.

The photos are too small for me to fully give a 100% confident authentication. It looks good but I'd like to see a profile shot of the sneaker (the outside) standing on a flat surface (not at an angle, not laying down). I'd also like to see a close up of the back, the laces and a close up of the pony hair.


thank you very much nolia. ill ask about the pics frm the seller. hope he reply :)

Poor photo quality. No glaring red flags but I cannot authenticate unless there are better images. Ask the seller for a good profile shot of both shoes (not taken at an angle) and a close up of the stamps on the sole an insole... Also ask her if she can do it in natural light because her photos all have a weird glare on it.

Paired with this seller's feedback, I would be careful.
