Legit Check - French Blue VII's - I'm confused...

[abernja]

Ok so I'm pretty sure these are fakes, and I have my reasons. I checked out this guys new auctions and it seems like he has 3 pair of legit shoes for salewith legit shoes in the background on a shoe rack.

So are these really fakes, or just really bad lighting?

Please provide reasons why or why not. Thanks.

100% fake. there should be a grey mountain shape between the black and blue on the sole. back tab should be french blue not grey. Wrong laces, they should beround laces not flat. Ankle cut is wrong. It seems to go straight across when it should be a little higher in the front and lower in the back.

hope that helps

Thanks.

I also noticed the gray was missing. Also the gray in the internal fit sleeve looks way too light. The leather looks too smooth where Frenchies have pebbledleather. The french blue looks almost sea foam green on the ankle.

Time to email the seller. Cuz I'm not buying this garbage.

fakes have the tendency of having smooth leather. real french blue vii's have the pebbled tumble leather. so yeah, they're fake.
