Wondering how to spot fake Yeezy Boost 700 V3 Alvah sneakers? Afraid of scammers?
Then no wonder, you are in the best place to learn how to spot fake Yeezy 700 V3 Alvah.
In this article, we are going to teach you how to spot fake Yeezy 700 V3 Alvah sneakers in just a few simple steps, linked with fake vs real Yeezy Boost 700 V3 Alvah images which will let you see the flaws on the fake Yeezys easily.
The quickest way to spot fake Yeezy 700 V3 Alvah is to check the size tag and the box label of the sneakers because the quality of the replica Yeezys never compares to the retail pairs, and the box label is common to miss the correct inscriptions.
As we said above, the quickest way to spot fake Yeezy Alvah sneakers is by checking the size tag.
Besides the size tag, we have prepared many other ways to spot fake Yeezy Boost 700 V3 Alvah sneakers which we are going to show you now.
When fake manufacturers try to replicate the Yeezy 700 V3 Alvah sneakers, they are typically more focused on recreating the design of the sneakers with almost little to no attention paid to elements like the barcode.
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 700 V3 Alvah, 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.
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 700 V3 Alvah.
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 700 V3 Alvah.
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 700 V3 Alvah for authenticity, read our article here.
As for the second step of the guide on how to spot fake Yeezy Boost 700 V3 Alvah sneakers, we are going to check the real vs fake Yeezy V3 Alvahs on the size tag – the most reliable sign of authenticity.
First of all, let’s have a quick look at the reference Yeezy Alvah fake vs real image in order to see the flaws on the fake Yeezys easier.
Now that you’ve had a look at the fake vs real Yeezy V3 Alvah image, let’s move on to the flaws on the fake Yeezys.
This is one of the most common flaws on every Yeezy model’s size tag, and it is present here too.
If you look at how the letters in the “CHN” text are shaped, you can notice how the letter “C” is smaller than the rest of the letters.
Then, if you look at the letter “N”, you can notice how it is significantly thicker on the last vertical leg compared to the letter on the retail Yeezys.
Moving to the “US” and the “UK” prints, you can notice how the fake Yeezy Boost 700 V3 Alvah pair has its texts looking too thick too, compared to the authentic Yeezys.
Underneath the ‘US UK FR JP CHN” text, you’ll notice the size number text for every measurement.
Looking at the fake Yeezys, you can see how the “5” in the “265” print is smaller than the rest of the numbers.
Besides, the fake Yeezys also have their numbers looking too thick compared to the authentic Yeezy Alvah’s numbers.
Looking at the date of producing the Yeezy Boost 700 V3 Alvah, you can notice how the fake Yeezy Alvahs have their text too thick, and not only that but also placed too far away from the slash between the month and the year of producing.
Looking at the legit Yeezy Alvahs, you can notice how the date number print has the same font-weight and spacing on the date number print.
Both the real and fake Yeezy Boost V3 Alvah 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 Alvah.
This is one of the most blatant flaws met on the counterfeit Yeezys. Most of the time, the fake Yeezy Boost 700 V3 Alvahs have their “adidas” text and the registered trademark “®” symbol placed too close to each other, as to make contact.
The authentic Yeezy Alvahs will never have their “®” character placed as close to the “adidas” text as shown in the fake vs real Yeezy Alvah image above.
Please note that CLU, APE, or EVN inscriptions might be found here and you should not worry if you’ve got any of them.
All three inscriptions can be found on an authentic or a fake pair, so we do not consider this area to be a reliable spot for identifying a fake Yeezy 700 V3 Alvah.
However, what you need to pay attention to is the quality of printing here. Look out for ink blotting, fuzzy lines and other signs of poor quality of printing.
For the third step of the guide on how to spot fake Yeezy Boost 700 V3 Alvah sneakers, we are going to check out the box label of the Yeezys.
The international version of the Yeezy 700 V3 Alvah, on the other hand, features 6 countries (US, UK, F, D, J, and CHN) sizes and every one of them is in equal prints on the label.
On the bottom right-hand corner of the box label is the serial number. If the pair is a US release, then the serial number is going to end with a V02 or V03. But for international (Canadian/European) releases, the serial number will end with a V10.
As seen in the image below, in the authentic international version featuring 6 sizes, the serial number ends with a V10. However, on the fake box label which is a US version, the serial number ends with a V10, as opposed to a V02 or V03.
Please note that if you notice any deviation from this pattern, then you are without a doubt looking at a fake Yeezy 700 V3 Alvah pair.
Moving on to the fourth authenticity-check step, we have to check the way that the Yeezys are laced.
As you may be used to already, we are going to first check the fake vs real Yeezy 700 V3 Alvah image in order to see the flaws on the fake Yeezys easier.
In the fake vs real Yeezy Alvah image above, we have pointed out a flaw that is common on the fake Yeezys about the lacing.
From the wearer’s view, on the left shoe, the left lace has to be underneath the right lace, and on the right shoe, the right lace has to be underneath the left lace, on the legit Yeezy Boost 700 V3 Alvah.
This may sound confusing, so let’s have a quick look at the zoomed-in real vs fake Yeezy Alvah image in order to get this correctly.
As we’ve mentioned in the fake vs real Yeezy Alvah image above, you can notice how the authentic Yeezys have their laces properly attached to the sneakers, and how the fake Yeezy don’t, and they have the laces reverted.
Please keep in mind that the laces can be swapped and relaced even on the fake Yeezys in the authentic manner, so that’s why we don’t consider this as the go-to authenticity check – this flaw applies only to the deadstock (unworn, untouched) pairs.
With this being said here, let’s move on to the fifth step of the guide on how to spot fake Yeezy Boost 700 V3 Alvah pairs
For the fifth step of the guide on how to spot fake Yeezy Alvah sneakers, we have to go to the rear side of the Yeezys and inspect the details on both the fake vs real Yeezy Alvahs.
In the fake vs real Yeezy Alvah image above, we have pointed out how the fake Yeezys have their Adidas logo placed too high on the sneakers.
On the other hand, the authentic Yeezys have their Adidas logo placed lower than the fake item’s logo.
For the sixth step of the guide on how to spot fake Yeezy Boost 700 V3 Alvah sneakers, we are going to check out the toe box’s V-shape.
Most of the time, the counterfeit sneakers will have the grey suede area on the toe box which looks like a “V” looking a lot wider, making it look like a “U” instead, which is not what we seek for, on the authentic Yeezys.
On the other hand, the authentic Yeezy 700 V3 Alvah sneakers will never have their toe box’s “V” shape looking wider or larger, as on the replica sneakers.
Because we were previously talking about the toe box of the Yeezy 700 V3 Alvah, we are going to analyze the height of the toe box on the real vs fake Yeezy Alvahs for the seventh step.
In the real vs fake Yeezy Alvah image above, we have pointed out how the fake Yeezy Alvahs have their toe box area looking too curvy and too lifted up compared to the toe box of the retail Yeezys.
On the other hand, the authentic Yeezy Alvahs have their toe box looking less curvy and lifted up.
For the eighth step of the guide on how to legit check Yeezy Alvah sneakers, we are going to check out the pattern of the cage on the side of the Alvahs.
In the real vs fake Yeezy Alvah image above, we have pointed out how the fake Yeezys have their holes in the cage looking less curvy and bumpy compared to the holes of the authentic shoes.
For the ninth and the last step o the exterior side of the real vs fake Yeezy Alvah sneakers, we are going to check out the glowing of the GITD cage.
In the fake vs real Yeezy Alvah image above, we have pointed out how the fake Yeezy 700 V3 sneakers have their cage shining poorly compared to the glowing of the authentic Yeezy Alvahs.
On the other hand, the authentic Yeezy Alvahs shine better and louder than the fake Yeezys.
