Since 2003, each pair of VANS soles will be marked with various anti-counterfeiting marks to prevent piracy. Different factories will have different steel seals, the most common is the [- V] logo, and the [J] [DT] steel seal is the symbol of genuine VANS. This is the difference between vans and reality. There is a steel seal on the real insole, close to the toe cap, which is used to indicate the model batch.

If the VANS shoes you bought are not stamped, there are only three situations: fakes, old models before 2003, and sample development samples.

2, vans authentic identification-the foot feeling of insole sole.

VANS insole is designed according to the physiological curve of the foot, and the arch of the foot is completely attached to the foot, so walking will not be very tiring. Compared with vans, there are generally no fakes, and the mats are flat.

The difference between vans and real shoes is that the soles of real shoes are firm and elastic, and the whole pair of shoes are shiny. Because there is no real sole ratio, fake shoes are generally hard and inelastic, and the rubber used is not very good, so the gloss is not good.

3, vans authentic identification-other small details.

Vans comparison between true and false, you will find that the first layer of the toe cap of real shoes is slightly prominent, and the whole fake shoes are generally flat, which is not as strong as the three-dimensional sense of real shoes. Weight is also a trick for vans to identify authenticity. Real shoes are heavy, because they are genuine Oxford soles, which are heavier than your visual inspection. Fake shoes are usually cut corners, so they are very light.
