IMG_1187.PNG IMG_1186.PNG IMG_1185.PNG Need help authenticating these manolo blahnik hangisi. I have a feeling they are fake.

A few things to point out. The sole is shiny, doesn't feel like real leather and doesn't seem handmade in Italy. Can't tell if it's because it work that the shoes aren't looking tightly sewn together. Booch seem to be glued not sewn. The inside leather when the logo is shown looks to be uneven.

Authentic IMO but know that they're seriously vintage.

Hi there, I bought these valentinos worn and refurb at the rack today. Just checking authenticity as they're marked a size 39, but they fit me and I'm usually a 37/37.5. I don't see any markings inside the shoe. Thank you. IMG_1483324444.397974.jpgIMG_1483324454.119209.jpgIMG_1483324462.847644.jpgIMG_1483324469.985712.jpg

They're fine IMO and you can certainly wait for response on the Valentino thread but in the future please post pictures as requested on the first page of this thread and most authenticators really need to see a picture of the full shoe on it's side taken from directly over the shoe. That is the only way to see the balance of the shoe which is really an important picture. Meanwhile I can see enough of the construction and lining to authenticate. As for sizing, I have no comment. A 39 should be way too large on you but I also have no idea how they look on your foot.

Can someone help me check if the Marni boots in the first link are authentic? Are the boots in the two links the same? Wondering because the first picture on monnierfreres look slightly off and the original price is listed as $665 when it should be $960. Thanks!

Others may post but I won't open links of companies I don't know so I only looked at Farfetch. There are no red flags and the boots are beautifully constructed but I just cannot authenticate without seeing sole and interior stamping. They're Italian production IMO but I wouldn't know the brand from those pictures unless I'm missing something. Sorry. Perhaps you can get more pictures and post them. As far as original retail pricing goes, my own shopping experience has led me to think that some sites do not research original pricing for any number of reasons and just go with a guesstimate.
