If you are wondering how to spot fake Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN, then you sure are in the best place to do so.

In this fake vs real Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN legit check guide, we are going to teach you how to spot fake Yeezy 700 MNVN in the most understandable ways.

The fastest way to spot fake Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN is to check the size tag inside each shoe because the fake Yeezys don’t ever have their inscriptions in tune with the legit shoes’ inscriptions, as there is the most major gap in quality between the fake vs real MNVN Yeezys.

Along with each step of our guide on how to spot fake Yeezy MNVN sneakers, we are going to link real vs fake Yeezy MNVN images so that everything would be properly understood.

On a side note, this guide on how to spot fake Yeezy 700 MNVN applies to each colourway of the Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN sneakers.

Now that you know what we are going to talk about, let’s move on to the proper fake vs real MNVN Yeezy legit check guide.

How to spot fake Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN

Step 1: Scan the barcode of your MNVN Yeezys

To begin this guide on how to spot fake Yeezy MNVN sneakers, we are going to look at the barcode and its results, after scanning the number. This barcode that we’re talking about can be found on the side of the box, specifically on the box label.

This makes the barcode a reliable indicator of authenticity that can help you ensure you only purchase the original Adidas manufactured sneakers.

When you are ready to scan the barcode of your Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN, we recommend that you use the Legit Check App.

When you scan the barcode using the Legit Check App, the app will run your unique barcode against other Yeezy sneakers online.

Note that all Yeezy sneakers have a unique barcode that relates to a specific combination of colourway, style and size.

For example, in this comparison, we’ve used the legit Black 700 MNVN Yeezys, and the fake Phosphor Yeezys.

  • Colorway
  • Style – MNVN
  • Size – From 4 to 16 (US)

How do you scan your Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN using the Legit Check App?

First of all, you’ll have to install the Legit Check App on your iOS and/or Android device.

Once you are ready to scan, tap on the barcode scan icon and focus in on the barcode on the box of your Yeezy Boost MNVN.

The results are where you will need to apply your intelligence. You will need to look for matches that confirm the authenticity status of your Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN.

Now, if the results show lots of confirmation points on Google for your unique barcode as illustrated in the picture below, then you can be assured that your box is authentic.

Please note that we say the box is authentic and not the sneakers because there is still the possibility that the real sneakers might have been swapped for the fake ones by the fake resellers to trick buyers into thinking the sneakers are genuine.

On the other hand, if the results do not show confirmation points that match the size-colorway combination, as shown in the picture below, then you probably have a fake in your hands.

Please note that the barcode scanning can only be considered a perfect match when the size and colorway combination on the results match the one on the box.

Thus, if only one of the two matches, then the box is still a fake. For the full story on how to scan the barcode on the box or your Yeezy MNVN for authenticity, read our article here.

Step 2: Fake vs real Yeezy MNVN size tag

Moving on to the second step of the guide on how to spot fake Yeezy MNVN, we are going to have a look at the size tags of the fake vs real Yeezy MNVN sneakers.

As we’ve mentioned at the top of the article, we consider the size tag as the most reliable sign of authenticity when speaking of the Yeezy MNVN. Therefore, we recommend that you always check the size tag on the MNVNs.

Now that you’ve had a look at the reference real vs fake Yeezy MNVN image above, let’s proceed to the flaws on the fake Yeezys

1 – The “US UK FR JP CHN” text

Looking at the “US UK FR JP CHN” text in the fake vs real Yeezy MNVN image above, we have pointed out how the fake Yeezys have their text looking too thick.

On the other hand, the legit Yeezy MNVNs have their “US UK FR JP CHN” text is thinner than the fake shoes’ text.

2 – The size number print

Looking at the “265” size number text in the fake Yeezys, you can see how their text is thicker and improperly positioned when compared to the authentic Yeezys’ text.

In fact, the fake shoes have their “6” looking a bit bigger and also thicker than the rest of the numbers.

The authentic Yeezy MNVNs have their size number print at the same font-weight and positioning.

3 – The date of manufacturing

This is the print which indicates when the shoes have been crafted, which is found below the size number text.

Looking at the legit Yeezy MNVNs, you can see how they have the same size, font-weight, and the same amount of space between the symbols on the date number, including the slash (“/”).

On the other hand, the fake MNVN Yeezys have their text looking too thin, too small, too thin, and improperly spaced, as the numbers on the right side of the slash are being placed too close to each other.

4 – The appearance of the MALE/MÂLE text

Both the real and fake Yeezy Boost MNVN may or may not have MALE/MÂLE inscriptions. So whether your sneakers feature the text or not, it is perfectly fine.

Therefore, we do not consider this specific inscription as a way of spotting the fake Yeezy MNVN.

5 – The “adidas ®” prints

A common flaw on the fake Adidas Yeezy sneakers is that they have their “adidas” text and the registered trademark “®” symbol placed too close to each other, so as to make contact.

This is something that is visible on the fake Yeezys in the real vs fake Yeezy MNVN image above as well.

On the other hand, the authentic Yeezys never have their “adidas” text and the “®” symbol placed as close to each other to make contact.

Therefore, when you’ll see a pair of Yeezys with the “adidas ®” elements in contact, you’ll know that they are 100% replicas.

6 – The factory of manufacturing number print

So as to mention, “APE” stands for the factory where the sneakers were manufactured.

In the fake vs real Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN image above, we have pointed out how the fake MNVNs have their APE number looking too thin on the first two numbers, and too thick on the last three numbers.

On the other hand, all of the numbers on the legit Yeezys have the same font-weight.

Step 3: Inspect the box label of your MNVN Yeezys

As for the third step of the guide on how to spot fake Yeezy MNVN sneakers, we are going to look at the box label of the fake vs real Yeezy MNVN sneakers.

When inspecting the label, there are two things you should look out for – the size and the serial number on the box.

Yeezy Clay Box Label

First off, all sneakers in the Yeezy MNVN line are released in two versions – the US version and the international version.

The US version features three sizes on the label – US, UK, and F. While the US size are in large print, the other two are in smaller prints under it.

The international version of the sneakers displays 6 countries (US, UK, F, D, J, and CHN) sizes and all 6 of them are in equal prints on the label.

Now regarding the serial number, if it is a US version, the serial number is supposed to end with a V02 or V03. However, the international (Canadian/European) versions end with a V10. 

Any deviation from this pattern is an obvious sign that you are dealing with a fake product.

As seen in the image below, the authentic label which is an international version has a serial number that ends with V10 as opposed to the fake one which ends with a V10 despite being a US version. 

Step 4: Look at the laying style of your Yeezy MVNN

Going to the fourth step of the guide on how to spot fake Yeezy MNVN, we are going to have a look at the real vs fake Yeezy MNVN’s lacing style.

First of all, let’s have a quick look at the reference real vs fake Yeezy 700 MNVN image below.

lc qc yeezy mnvn

From the wearer’s view, on the right shoe, the right laces must be placed below the left laces.

Moving to the left shoe, from the wearer’s view, the left laces have to be placed beneath the right laces.

So as to see and understand this better, let’s have a look at the real vs fake Yeezy 700 MNVN image below.

yeezy 700 mnvn fake vs real

In the fake vs real Yeezy Boost MNVN image above, we have pointed out how, once again, the fake Yeezys have their laces “inverted”, as we call them – because they do not follow the correct pattern.

Bear in mind that if the shoelaces have been replaced, this step goes off the table as being a reliable sign of authenticity.

Therefore, this spot applies only to the deadstock (factory condition, never worn or relaced) sneakers.

Step 5: Check the details on the side of your MNVN Yeezy Boost 700

Proceeding to the fifth step of the guide on how to spot fake Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN, we are going to have a look at the fake vs real Yeezy MNVN’s side details.

As you may be used to, we are first going to check out the fake vs real Yeezy 700 MNVN image below.

fake vs real yeezy mnvn

In the fake vs real Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN image above, we have pointed out a main visible flaw on the fake Yeezys, on three different sides.

First of all, looking at the top of the “700” text, you can see how it is too small on the fake shoes, as the outline of the text is too far away from the black patch at the top, with the lacing.

On the other hand, the legit shoes have their “700” text bigger, as the outline of this text is placed closer to the patch with the lacing, above.

Then, the same outline flaw is visible at the bottom of the text on the fake shoes, on the number “7” and the third digit, which is the last “0”: the text is too small on the fake shoes, and on the legit ones, the text is bigger.

Step 6: Verify the toe box’s V-shape on your Yeezy MNVNs

Moving on to the sixth way on how to spot fake Yeezy MNVN, we are going to check out the shape of the “V” patch on the toe box of the real vs fake Yeezy MNVN pairs.

yeezy mnvn fake vs real

In the fake vs real Yeezy MNVN image above, we have pointed out with the help of the lines drew over the shoes how the fake shoes have their V-shaped patch looking too wide.

On the other hand, the green line drew over the legit shoes is narrower, and therefore, the authentic shoes’ patch is less wide than the fake shoes’.

Step 7: Fake vs real Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN rear details

As for the seventh step of the guide on how to spot fake Yeezy MNVN, you will have to flip your shoes to the rear side and check out the details on the back.

how to spot fake yeezy mnvn

In the fake vs real Yeezy MNVN image above, we have pointed out a few major flaws on the fake Yeezys’ shape.

First of all, looking at the top of the shoes from the rear side, you can see how they have a “U” shape.

The fake shoes have their “U” at the top looking too narrow, while the legit shoes’ “U” shaped patch is wider.

Then, the same flaw applies to the “U” shaped patch on the cage, in the middle side of the shoes: the fake shoes have their patch narrow, while the legit shoes have their patch wider.

Moving on to the cage’s empty patches on the left and the right side, you can see how the fake shoes have their empty patches looking too long and narrower.

On the other hand, the authentic Yeezys have their empty patches on the sides looking shorter and wider.

Step 8: Verify the quality of the 3M Reflective material

As for the eighth step of the guide on how to spot fake Yeezy MNVN, we will have to go back on the side of the fake vs real Yeezy MNVN sneakers and check out the quality of the shining 3M material.

yeezy 700 mnvn real vs fake

In the Yeezy 700 MNVN fake vs real image above, we have pointed out how. the fake shoes have their material shining differently than the legit shoes’ material.

By that, we mean that the fake shoes’ material shines too much, as it also has a different hue than the legit shoes’ hue.

In fact, the fake shoes have their 3M material shining as yellow, instead of the grey/white material visible on the legit shoes.

Step 9: Real vs fake Yeezy 700 MNVN insole printing

For the ninth and the last step of the guide n how to spot fake Yeezy MNVN sneakers, we are going to check the real vs fake Yeezy MNVN’s insole printing.

legit check yeezy mnvn

Looking at the real vs fake Yeezy MNVN image above, you can see three main flaws on the fake shoes’ insole.

First of all, looking at the letters “Y” in the “YEEZY” text, you can see how they are too thick on the bottom side, while the same letters on the legit shoes are thinner.

Then, we have also pointed out in the Yeezy MVNN fake vs real image above how the fake shoes have their letters in the “adidas” text looking too thick, while the same letters on the legit shoes are thinner.
