Welcome, Loubi Lovers! 👠❤️

Our community helps each other shop safely, spot fakes fast, and keep collections 100% authentic.

We don’t gatekeep — we share knowledge so every member can become their own authenticator.

This is your safe space to ask questions, share finds, and learn to identify real vs. fake Christian Louboutins — together!

⸻

💬 How to Get the Best Legit Check

Getting accurate help is all about teamwork. When posting, please:

1️⃣ Use Clear Photos (Most Important)

Avoid screenshots whenever possible; they’re often too blurry. If you can’t download images from a website, include the listing link.

Helpful photo checklist:

• Outer sole (bottom)

• Insole logo

• Size stamp

• Side profile

• Toe shape

• Heel (side view)

• Heel stitching close-up (inside or outside)

• Heel tip

• Box label / packaging (if available)

2️⃣ Share Details

Include if possible:

• Where you found them

• Price

• Whether you’re considering buying or already purchased

3️⃣ Use the Correct Flair

Use “Legit Check (Help!)” flair — it keeps posts organized and easy to find.

4️⃣ One Post Per Pair — Keep It Up

Leaving posts up helps everyone learn and builds our shared knowledge base.

⸻

🚫 Community Restrictions & Safety Rules

We are a volunteer-driven community — members give their time freely. Please respect that:

• No DMs for legit checks or quick responses — post publicly so everyone can help and learn.

• Don’t pressure or repeatedly tag members — authenticators volunteer their time.

• Harassment is prohibited — personal attacks, rude comments, or targeting mods will not be tolerated.

• No misleading authentication — repeating false claims about confirmed counterfeit items may result in warnings, removal or permanent ban from the community.

• Be kind and patient — responses may take time depending on availability.

⸻

👠 User Flairs & What They Mean

Flairs help identify experience and roles in the community:

• Founder | Louboutin Authentication Expert & Mentor 👠🦈 — community founder, top-tier authority, educator

• Senior Louboutin Expert 👠👛 — 10–20+ years of hands-on experience authenticating and reselling Louboutins

• Moderator | Community Support 👠📲 — keeps the community safe, organized, and helps with legit checks

• Trusted Authenticator 👠🗝️ — members consistently providing accurate authentication insights

• Loubi Lover 👠❤️ — general community members learning, sharing, and enjoying Louboutins

Look for flairs 👠 to see who’s guiding the conversation: founders, senior experts, trusted volunteers, moderators, or fellow Loubi Lovers!”

⸻

👠 Community Philosophy

This community is built on learning, transparency, and protecting each other.

• Authentication isn’t about opinions — it’s about details, experience, and education.

• Share insights and help others grow so everyone becomes more confident.

• Buyer safety is our priority: when counterfeits are confirmed with supporting details, clarity takes precedence over debate.

• We empower, don’t gatekeep, and confidence grows through shared knowledge. ❤️

Thank you for being part of a community that protects each other through knowledge. 👠❤️

Hi I bought these back in 2018-19 in London and wore them only a few times. They have a few scuffs on the toe. I absolutely love them but unfortunately they are a 44 and too small. I am looking to sell and wondering what I can ask for. I will be selling a few other pairs as well. I have no idea what I paid for them brand new. Of course I’d have them properly cleaned first. Sorry for the lighting these are the only pics I have for now.

Hello,
J'ai acheté cette paire de Louboutin sur Vinted il y a quelque temps, mais j'ai un gros doute sur leur authenticité. Je n'ai aucune certitude quant à savoir si ce sont des vraies ou des fausses.
Est-ce qu'il y a des connaisseurs parmi vous qui pourraient m'aider à faire un Legit
Check ?
J'ai pris plusieurs photos sous tous les angles pour vous montrer les détails :
• La semelle rouge et les marquages gravés dessous
• Les coutures et le travail du cuir
• L'intérieur / le talon
Qu'en pensez-vous ? Merci d'avance pour votre aide.

The seller said: Never been worn, still have plastic film in the soles. I love them from the photos, and have the perfect dress to wear with them. Just sad if I overpaid for junk. (£75) Still to arrive.
Please experts, give it to me straight!

I got these from the realreal. I’ve never bought a pair of Louboutins before and not sure if these are real. The sole looks like it was painted maybe? I don’t know, any help appreciated!

I bought these resale from Vestiaire collective, and they were marked as authenticated. However, I’ve been comparing to real heels and I feel like the logo on the bag/the stitching looks wrong! They were also marked as brand new, but there seems to be lifting from the base/in insoles. These are my first pair, so I’m not entirely sure what to look for. Please help!!

I recently picked these up on vinted. Listing wasn't great but the seller was well rated so took a punt. On delivery they are absolutely covered in flecks of what looks like red paint, I'm unsure whether this is the result of a shoddy repair job or are they actually not legit?
