Your photos are good - thanks! I'm going to say up-front (because you're obviously worried) that I do think your shoes are authentic. I've compared them to a number of pairs I have here from the same vintage and in all important aspects - build quality, leather soles, shape, heel construction, font used for serial number, innersole lining, position of buckle/bows on vamp (albeit upside-down), stitching etc, they're identical. But it does get curiouser because there's 2 more things that I haven't seen before. One is the short serial number (4 digits instead of 5) and the other is the curved 'MADE IN ITALY' on the soles. However, just because I haven't personally seen these things, doesn't mean that the shoes aren't authentic. It just means that my experience is incomplete. So...all in all, I'm confident that your shoes are the real deal. :tup:

PS. I have seen 4 digit serial numbers on other vintage styles of Ferragamos, just not in this style!

Thank you so much for all your help! I really appreciate it. I am sort of relieved? lol I will proceed to cleaning them and wearing them - the leather is so soft and comfortable :happydance:

Your knowledge and attention to detail is amazing. Thank you thank you!

You're very welcome! And I'm glad you say that the leather is soft and comfortable - that's another good indication of their authenticity. Fakes are generally a notoriously uncomfortable fit.

Hello again, I'm afraid there still isn't anyone here to help with authenticating bags and wallets. :sad: But...a few people have tried using another site - authenticate4u.com - you might have more luck getting your bag authenticated there. Good luck!

So, I need a little help here...

I was very excited when I thought of getting my boyfriend a nice wallet for Valentine's Day. I was thinking about LV, Burberry, or something similar. Then I remembered he had taken a picture of a Salvatore Ferragamo wallet he had gotten a few years ago, so I asked about it, and that's when I found out it was gifted to him. I was a little bummed because I thought a wallet would have been a perfect gift, but it's something that's already been done.

Meanwhile, I couldn't help but to reasearch his wallet and I couldn't find anything similar to it, which made me wonder if it's an authentic one. Here's
the picture he had up on instagram:

Basically, if it's a fake, I'll go ahead and get him the wallet I want to get him. If not, time to move on to the next gift idea!

Thanks for any help!


PS. I did read the rules about the correct formatting, but I'll take anything that can
be said based on the logo alone.

Yes, I'm 95% sure they're authentic. The pics are a little over-exposed so it's hard to make out the innersole material and cushioning, but from what I can see, there are no red flags!

Sorry but there's no way anyone could authenticate from that one photo. But it's really beside the point I'm afraid because sadly, there's no-one here at the moment to authenticate Ferragamo bags, wallets or belts. I can help with shoes but that's it. I've been suggesting that people try authenticate4u.com - I know a few Purse Forum members have had success there. But you'd need to provide them with photos of the entire wallet, interior/exterior, all logos, stitching, zips/hardware etc.

Thanks for the reply anyways. I'll skip the wallet this year. Thankfully, I have other things in mind! :yahoo:
