How to distinguish real shoes from fake

Unfortunately, no brand is immune to counterfeiting. Therefore, those who are planning to buy shoes, you can give a couple of tips on how to distinguish the original "Christian Louboutin" from a fake.

1. Price. The brand's shoes are very expensive and cannot cost $ 500 or $ 1000 in the store. Even if you buy shoes that have already been used, and the seller said that the size did not fit or were worn a couple of times, do not believe it. This is not a bazaar bag to sell so cheaply.
2. Real "louboutins" (as they are called by the people) have a bright scarlet sole, on which the manufacturer is indicated - France! Fake ones often say "Italy". The hardworking Chinese were able to create shoes in the style of the great Coco and sign them Loubotin.
3. As for the inscription itself: on the original shoes it is clear, even and very beautiful, and on a fake it is illegible and sometimes blurred.
4. The color of the heel is identical to the shade of the shoes themselves. That is, if you have purchased a pair of beige shades, then everything except the sole will be of this particular range. And the heels on fakes are always black.
5. Pay attention to the smell. "Louboutins" smell nice of leather, and Chinese fake smells like glue.
6. Branded shoes are perfect in everything (it's not for nothing that we pay such a lot of money), even their insole is glued smoothly and neatly. Sometimes you don't understand if it exists, it merges so much with the very shape of the shoe.
7. A distinctive feature of Chinese-made shoes is a "cocky" nose. Christian Louboutin will never allow himself such a sin.

Remember that each pair of shoes from this famous designer is created exclusively by hand, which means that the quality is always at its best.

Despite this popularity, the brand has only 5 boutiques in the world. Fortunately, one of them is located in Moscow. Shoes from the wizard Louboutin are created for those who have taste, soul and style of aristocrats. Shoes are designed to emphasize a graceful and beautiful female leg. And the original color of the padding makes the brand's models stand out from others. And many female representatives felt on themselves how the bright scarlet sole affects the strong half of humanity.
