What do fake Louboutins look like?
1 Answer

Fake Louboutins often look similar to authentic shoes produced by the French luxury fashion house of Christian Louboutin until you inspect their details closely. Often, the soles provide clues. On replicas, the soles are frequently plastic or synthetic leather rather than the vibrant cherry red used for genuine red bottoms. Also, fakes may have noticeable glue marks where the sole joins the rest of the shoe. The logos on genuine soles are always embossed and should be in the correct font and deeply pressed into the leather. Printed logos, misspellings and shallow embossing usually indicate reproductions. If you're unsure about the authenticity of a particular pair of shoes, have a certified appraiser or other knowledgeable expert evaluate them. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of Christian Louboutin shoes.
