If all pictures were as good as these I doubt if any mistakes would ever be made here. Those shoes are authentic. I don't know the footwear datecodes but I do know that they do not match the lists of bag datecodes. You can also post on the Vuitton thread and ask if they have a list of shoe datecodes but those shoes are definitely OK. All fonts and materials are correct IMO.

If Audreylita and/or Shuze deems the shoes as authentic after seeing full sets of all the requested pictures, you certainly can list them. Both ladies know their shoes and neither will deem as authentic unless they're sure.

And if you wanted to add credibility to your listing and reassurance for buyers, you can spend $7.50-ish for a professional authentication.

And if deemed fake, I don't recommend donating. By donating, it's keeping the shoes in circulation and eventually, they'll be sold to a buyer who might think they're authentic, might pay a lot of money for fakes and when she no longer wants them, might list them on ebay or another site. And the cycle would continue.

Shuze has had great suggestions for making practical use of fake handbags. Maybe she has an idea for using fake shoes aside from giving them to a little girl to play dressup.

But please wait for a definitive authentication before doing anything.

Really no ideas here for fake shoes. Someone once suggested planters LOL. I hate waste and throwing things away that could be of use to others but unless footwear is heavily marked as counterfeit they probably could end up back in circulation which we'd all hate to see. If I had a pair I'd probably marker them heavily and bring them to a local mission but I live in a city with one of the most active skid rows in the country,

Could you please provide pictures of the back of the shoe and the sole? From these photos everything looks OK but those other photos would be helpful to be sure.

I own a couple of pairs of shoes from that same collection.

I can't figure out how to post multiple pics in one thread!
Click to expand...
To post multiple pictures, either click on the paper clip icon above the reply box or scroll below the reply box to "additional options" and "manage attachments."

Both bring up box #3 where you can choose up to 4 pics at a time, upload and if necessary, add another 4 pics to the same post.

Also there seems to be some fraying that looks off...

I can't tell what's wrong with th lining but I agree that something is off. It looks torn on my screen. The damage behind the heel appears to be from driving. Rather than making a mistake can you take them to a local shoemaker to doublecheck that the lining, the insole and the sole are all leather and report back?

Also, BB is there a way to pin your picture posting instructions to the top of the Authenticate Shoe thread? That would be terrific if it can be done. Thanks for taking the time!
