Hello all ! I was looking through the forum topics, but could not find a topic related to my question. It is probably more about authenticity of the shoe. I'm watching these shoes on the ebay couple of days now. The seller is in good standing, nice clear pictures etc. , but I've noticed that the soles kind of cut off in the middle, they don't go all the way to the "nose". Starting under the heel and ending after size number. Yes, it says Jimmy Choo and looks ok. But this cut off bothers me. I saw originals in the store and soles are all the way. Is it a sign - they are not authentic? Even if they are authentic, do I have to go to a shoe repair and glue the soles on? I'm confused :(

Thank you !

They have had rubber soles put on them. A lot of people do this to get more wear and comfort out of their Choos. These look fine to me.

There is not a list of all authenticity markers because it helps the counterfeiters. We are really sensitive to that. Often counterfeiters will post a fake bag here to see if it can be passed off as real. And sellers come here too. We are here to help shoppers.

I would like to see a pic of the other side of the zipper pull, please.

I figured that as well, but noticed a few of the other brands had information like that. Thanks for your response though, here is the other side.

Whoops, I meant the other side of the actual zipper pull on the zipper compartment inside the purse. It should have a logo stamped into it. Sorry I was not clear.

Hello,

Could someone tell me is this bag is authentic please? The seller has a reply to someone's question guaranteeing that it is but my understanding was that the front metal plate must match the color of the bag. Is this true in all cases?
