Totally agree. I'm happy to post the bulleted points here along with the certificate; but I know historically we were discouraged from posting "why" things were deemed fake here so I don't want to post anything I'm not supposed to (I'm also happy to DM you). If the only issue had been the missing stamp I would have kept them, but after reading their cert, I am ultimately confident in their assessment
I agree that info should not be posted. I don’t look at fonts as I don’t know them well enough. My background is construction and I did think they were well made. Glad you didn’t get stuck with them.Totally agree.

It’s posted and acknowledged with the moderators and creators of this entire blog with any authentications that specifics between authentic and knock offs not be discussed. Handing counterfeiters specific information for any brand of anything gives them more tools to make a better counterfeit product. It’s been discussed many times that counterfeiters troll these threads, so it is not just here with shoe authentications.Totally agree.

Another highly counterfeited shoe. There have been so many after market alterations that it’s impossible for me to see original detailing. Maybe Shuze can weigh in, I honestly don’t know what I’m looking at.
Given the photos shown, they appear to be authentic. Let’s let Shuze weigh in as well.
Agree on these. BTW I think the redone ones are OK too but too much work has been done of them for me.
Authentic IMOHi all! Would be very grateful if someone could help authenticate these Gucci horsebit slingbacks I purchased from ebay (can still return for 30 days - wanted to examine in person). I also got these for an additional 20% off listed price so better safe than sorry.

The explanation for the slashed logo is that they were purchased from a wholesaler who got from a dept store and they do that in order to prevent ppl from returning for full price.
Greatly appreciate any and all help, LOVE this forum.
