I've never seen a well done Coach sneak counterfeit from a construction standpoint as the price can't be high enough to cover the cost of quality labor in China. I don't know their fonts and I bet some of the fabrics are very well counterfeited (just like everyone else) but the constructions never hold up on intense scrutiny. The day I stop believing that, I have to stop posting here.

I really don't give authentication opinions on sneakers unless they're Italian but I'll make an occasional exception when the pictures are really detailed as these are. IMO they're authentic. The stamping is all correct and the finishing is really clean. IMO most of the Chinese counterfeits are very poorly made.

The sneakers are definitely authentic Barretts.

I just want to say that though it's rare to see fake Coach footwear (because the authetnic items are relatively inexpensive), I have seen some fakes that were extremely close "good" fakes.

I can't authenticate them but I'm posting what I believe to be the listing.

Is this the listing? (To see sold and completed listings, scroll down on the left to find the link to click.)

The boots in the above photos are authentic. The listing pictures are too small and lacking in detail for me but I see nothing to suspect that they're not authentic.

Oh, I see that the above pics were taken by the buyer. I was confused that those were from a different listing. Again, they're fine.

shuze, thank you so much for giving me peace of mind :-)
i know that the seller did not have the exact photos authenticators need so i decided to buy them and take the photos myself. i know that i am protected coz i paid via paypal and the seller offers 30 days return. now, i can just wait for the fall to come :-) again, thanks to you and BeenBurned :-)
