Thank you very much!!
Neither Audreylita nor I usually comment on Chinese product.Hopefully BeenBurned will also check in but I don’t see anything questionable. IMO they’re fine.

These have to be one of the odder items I’ve seen. We are discouraged from commenting on our authenticity calls, but I feel the need to justify why IMO they are counterfeit. Marant manufactures footwear in Portugal and Italy BUT they have made items in China-sneakers for sure. They’ve also collaborated with large volume retailers like H & M and I don’t know where those items are made but they should be marked as a collaboration. Meanwhile the boot has a made in China interior stamp stating that the upper is leather and all other materials are synthetic which would include the sole yet the sole is stamped leather and made in Portugal so IMO they are counterfeit. Where did you get them?

Hello,
Thank you so much for reply.
I've got these on ebay, and from the few photos provided in the listing they looked pretty good to me.
I also do not want to write here what seemed wrong with them after I have received them, I have searched all through the web to find topics on how to spot fake IM boots (such as Crisi or Jenny model) and I haven't found anything... There are a lot of fake Beckett and Bobby sneakers...But what about boots like these...?

IM boots are made in Italy or Portugal and again, IMO yours are counterfeit. You can use a professional service to verify if the seller gives you a hard time on a return.

Hi All, could someone please authenticate these Prada Shoes. I have bought them already and feel foolish for being so hasty.

Item: authentic Prada haute couture pumps high heels shoes
Listing number: 282779349665
Seller: gabobeach
Link: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/282779349665
Comments: I think they may be from 2010-2011 collection but now I am unsure due to the upside down logo on the arch, and the black label Prada on the sole.

Thank for your time and help

I can’t see enough interior detail to authenticate but guy guess is that they’re fine. When you receive them please post focused crisp pictures of the interior including all stamping and the sole stamping.

And as stated I’m not expert on her and asked for others to comment as all I can see is that they’re leather lined and decently constructed but when you’re dealing with a designer who manufactures in multiple countries and uses multiple factories it becomes very difficult. Best to go to a professional service if no one experienced with the label posts.

That other counterfeit pair was easy to spot.

I have asked seller if they are authentic, she has responded - 100 % original. However, the lining is much lighter than usually IM boots have, stitching is purely made, out sole looks cheap (with size sticker on it?), and insole also looks cheap and purely made, overall shape does not look like real Dicker boots are.
Even though this seller has a very high feedback score I still think they are counterfeit..
