Salomon
item
Salomon's move from trail running into fashion made its best-known sneakers a target for replicas that nail the colorway and silhouette. A Salomon authenticity check comes down to the tongue label, the Contagrip outsole and the insole print, each compared with verified references for that model, and you get a certificate once the authenticator reaches a verdict.

What we check on Salomon
How to tell a real Salomon from a fake
On Salomon the tongue label is the first check: its model name, article number and print have to match the pair and the box. These are the parts of a pair our authenticators check from your photos.
01
Tongue label
Model name, article number, size and country: font weight, spacing and print quality.
02
Contagrip outsole
Moulded Contagrip branding, lug shape and depth, and rubber color.
03
Insole
Salomon and insole maker print, their weight and placement.
04
Side profile
Midsole shape, overlays and panel proportions for the model.
05
Heel and pull tab
Heel logo, the pull tab and how the heel seam is pressed.
06
Laces and lace pocket
Quicklace cord, the lock and the pocket on the tongue.
07
Box label
Article number, colorway and size matching the tongue label.
Authenticated. For Charity.
To celebrate ten years of British Red Cross second-hand fashion on eBay UK, pre-loved designer pieces will be auctioned, each one authenticated by LegitGrails
You can search an article number to see which model and colorway it belongs to, but that only tells you the code exists, not that your pair is real. It is one checkpoint and replicas print genuine article numbers, so we check the label against the pair and the box, then the construction.
Not one that we know of. Any code or QR code on a tongue label or box can be copied from a genuine pair, so it is one checkpoint, never proof. We check the label print, the Contagrip outsole and the insole against verified references.
Yes. Ask the seller for the side profile, the tongue label, the outsole, the insole, the heel and the box label. Upload them before you pay and we check the pair against references for that model and colorway.
Any Salomon sneaker, from trail models like the Speedcross to lifestyle pairs like the XT-6, XT-4 and ACS Pro, including collaboration releases. Each pair is checked against references for that exact model and colorway.
Yes. Salomon jackets, clothing, bags and accessories are authenticated on this page from photos of the labels, the logos, the hardware and the construction, compared with verified Salomon references.
Salomon's help center says products bought from an authorized Salomon dealer, a Salomon brand store or salomon.com are genuine, and that answer describes no check for pairs bought elsewhere. For a resale pair, upload photos of the tongue label, the outsole, the insole and the box label, and a professional authenticator checks them against verified Salomon references.
For the most accurate and quick authentication process, we advise you to upload clear photos of the areas visible when clicking 'Upload photos' on this page. We quickly determine if the uploaded photo meets our criteria. If your photos do not meet the criteria, you will receive a request for more and/or clearer photos. Check out Photo Instructions to find clear examples for each detail.
