Hi guys! Hope you are all well!

I really need your help to determine if this Manolo Blahnik Hangisi 70mm is authentic - I own a few pairs of authentic Hangisi, and never have been confused until this one came in. Does anyone know if Hangisi ever comes in a shoe box like this? It's a bigger box than my other Hangisi 70mm boxes, which were all the same size. I also noticed something off when putting the shoes in question side by side with my authentic Hangisi, same color, same size, but not sure if those are relevant. Much appreciated!

I usually leave MB to Audreylita as she wears them and I don’t but I don’t want you to wait to deal with these. They’re fake IMO. Where did you buy them? Can you return?

what do they say on the bottom? Looks like hand mada?

I, as well, think these are fake. I purchased this pair from LUISAVIAROMA, an Italian based website that says authenticity completely guaranteed, which is why I felt so confused and shocked. I got an exchange since the price was really appealing, only to get the exact same stuff... I wish I knew for sure what's happening coz I purchase from this website often.

The bottom of the shoes? One of the photos attached shows it, which looks quite genuine IMO. The bottom of the box simply says the same thing as a genuine shoe box, except that the size and gaps differ from the genuine one.

I got ur point! I agree, even though it looked like a bad print and that's all, none of my other authentic Hangisi looks like "mada" rather than "made", not even when it was somewhat unclear.

They’re def fake but where did you get them?

See the reply I posted above the photo - LUISAVIAROMA. Complete shock.

wait for Audreylita. I’m going by that sole stamp but maybe it’s just a bad strike. The site you purchased is legit and bad strikes can happen but that one is just so off. If I’m wrong I apologize but that doesn’t even look like an e.

Could you please post pictures of the rear of the shoe so I can see the stitching. Also the interior towards the heel on the sides where the leather and suede meet. Also how is the buckle fastened, is there a screw attaching it to the inside of the shoe?

Manolo has been using these different size boxes for years. You can never use boxes or receipts as a gauge for something to be counterfeit, if someone can manufacture an entire shoe then surely they can dummy up a piece of paper. I've seen real birkin bags sold in Hermes sleeper sacks that are fake.

And please remember that all of Manolo's shoes are hand made so there can be small variations in his shoes.

Thanks for posting Audreylita. I should not have posted so quickly but that hand made stamp just looked so wrong in all the pictures.

Thank you so much for your reply! I am attaching some photos here. Please lemme know if you need more.

Idk what exactly to look for as to the buckle tho. Didn't seem to notice a screw? The buckles are really just way more bulging than my authentics and more curvy and not fitting the shoe tip that well when seen from the side. Also apparently bulging where the upper rear part meets the heel whereas my authentics look consistently very neat and slim along that line.

It's ok I totally understand. Thank you so much for trying to help out
