The Inside Sewings Method
As you would have noticed in other LegitGrails guides, we use this method quite often to legit check shoes.
Authentic Gucci shoes have a very defined, bold pattern with no inconsistencies.Using our real vs. fake Gucci comparison below, you will notice that the pattern font on a fake Gucci sneaker is thinner than the real deal.
The Front Side of the Insole Method
This method requires you to look at the "Gucci Made in Italy" text in the heel area of the insole.The original insole has its "Gucci" text thinner than the fake one. In addition to that, the "Gucci Made in Italy" text is less bulged on an original pair. The text on the fake insole is a lot thicker and consists of very bulged letters.
Also, look at the "W" part of the insole in the top left corner. You will notice that the 'W" part is more defined and positioned higher on an original Gucci insole.
On the contrary, the fake Gucci shoe insole will have the "W" part positioned lower with a less defined "W" part.

The Backside of the Insole Method
It is important to note that different Gucci shoes have different insole models. Thus, we’re not going to focus on the color difference in this fake vs. real Gucci comparison, as the key giveaway point here is the Gucci logo pattern on the top of the insole.
First, note that the symbol pattern on the original insole is positioned higher. The symbols are also much bulkier and have a different depth on the fake insole.
The Gucci logo on the heel is also different. The text on the original Gucci insole is smaller, thinner, and more defined than the fake insole.

The Gucci Label Method
The font used to manufacture a Gucci label is very specific and hard to get. Most manufacturers get it completely wrong, so don’t forget to pay attention.As shown in the fake vs. real Gucci comparison below, the fake Gucci label is much wider than the original one. Also, look at the frame around the "Gucci" text, which is stuffier on the fake tag.

Fake vs Real Gucci Shoes: Box Method
It’s also essential to examine the box if you want to be sure that you’ve got the real deal.We've made a fake vs. real Gucci shoe comparison below for you to look at the difference in the "Gucci" font. You can notice how the original "Gucci" text is thinner than the fake one.
The shape of the fake "G" letter is curvier when compared to the "G" on the original Gucci Box.
The Tag on the Dust Bag Method
Moving on to the 4th method of verifying Gucci, it is extremely important to look at the tag on the dust bag.Look at the fake vs. accurate Gucci comparison below; notice how the font on the original Gucci tag is thicker and has a different color than the fake one.
Also, look at the stroke on the right side of the fake Gucci tag, which is not the case with the original Gucci tag. Fake manufacturers still need to manage to fix this part, so authenticate your Gucci sneakers using this method.
