How to spot fake Nike Concepts Lab Nike SB Dunk Low Lobster

Step 1: Fake vs real Concepts Lab SB Dunk Lobster rear details

Just as we’ve previously mentioned, we consider the rear details as the most reliable sign of authenticity when speaking of the Nike SB Dunk Low Lobster sneakers.

Therefore, this is why we are starting the guide on how to spot fake Nike Dunk Lobster shoes with the rear details.

First things first, let’s brief the reference real vs fake Lobster SB Dunk image linked below, and after that, we will explain the flaws on the fake shoes.

In the image with the real vs fake Lobster SB Dunks above, we have pointed out how the fake shoes, first of all, have their “NIKE” text looking too small, thick and boxy.

On the other hand, the authentic shoes have all of their letters in the “NIKE” text looking bigger, thinner and also a bit wider than the fake shoes’ letters in within the same “NIKE” text.

At the same time, the fake shoes also have their letters connected in the “NIKE” text, while the legit Lobster SB Dunks have their letters with all of the threads in place, not being connected, unlike the replica shoes.

Then, looking at the three lines of stitching found in the middle side of the shoes, it is noticeable in the real vs fake Nike SB Dunk Low Lobster image above how the replica pair has its stitches too thin.

Speaking about the legitimate Lobster SB Dunk Lows, it is easy to nice how their triple stitching is thicker than the fake pair’s stitching.

Yet another flaw within the same stitches is that the fake shoes have their triple stitches too long, and the authentic stitches are boxier, therefore looking smaller than the fake shoes’ stitches.

Lastly, talking about the double-stitching that curves all around the shoes on the rear side, we have pointed out in the fake vs real Concepts Lab Nike Lobster Dunk image above how the fake shoes have their stitching improperly shaped.

In fact, the counterfeit Lobster SBs have their double stitching looking too thick, and not only that, but also crooked, since the stitches have no pattern of arrangement.

We’ve mentioned that because on the legit SB Dunk Lobster shoes, the double stitching looks thinner and with all of the stitches in place, without having any stitch angled more or less than the other stitches, unlike the fake shoes.

With this being said for the first step of the guide n how to spot fake Nike SB Dunk Low Concepts Lab Lobster shoes, let’s move on to the next way.

Step 2: Nike SB Dunk Low Concepts Lab Lobster real vs fake size tag

Moving on to the second step of the guide on how to spot fake Nike SB Dunk Low Lobster sneakers, we are going to look at the real vs fake Lobster SB Dunks for the size tag inside each shoe.

The size tag is yet another one of the most reliable signs of authenticity when talking about the Lobster SB Dunk Lows, and we recommend that you never skip the size tag either.

In the image with the real vs fake Lobster SB Dunk Lows above, we have pointed out how the fake shoes have their size tag with multiple font-weight flaws.

On the other hand, the legitimate Lobster Dunks have their text looking thicker and more defined than the fake shoes’ text.

Up next, looking in the middle side of the size tag, looking at the fake vs real Lobster Nike Dunk image above, you can see how the style-code’s print is too thick on the fake shoes.

This time, the authentic Lobster Dunks have their style-code print looking thinner than the fake shoes’ text.

Going into the right side of the style-code’s print, you can see the date of manufacturing’s print.

The fake shoes have their date of manufacturing print looking too thin, as it uses a different font from the authentic shoes’ text.

The genuine Nike SB Dunk Low Concepts Lab Lobster shoes have their date of manufacturing print looking thicker than the fake shoes’ text.

Moving on to the “MADE IN CHINA” and to the “FABRIQUE EN CHINE” two lines of text, you can see how the fake shoes have their text using a different font than the legit shoes’ text, as well as how the fake shoes have their text too thin.

On the other hand, the genuine Nike SB Dunk Low Lobster shoes have their two lines of text looking thicker than the text found on the replica shoes.

In the image containing the fake vs real Nike Concepts Labs Lobster Dunk image above, we have noticed how the replica pair has its stitching on the logo at the wrong shaping and thickness.

In fact, the fake Lobster SB Dunk Lows have their stitching on the tongue looking too small and thick, while the authentic Lobster Dunks have their stitching on the logo a bit thinner and longer.

The next few steps are still reliable signs of authenticity but are for non-top-versions of replicas available for this item. We recommend sticking to the steps we’ve explained above to make sure you’re not drawing the wrong conclusions.

Step 5: Check the toe box of your Nike SB Dunk Low Lobster sneakers

Going to the fifth method on how to spot fake Lobster Dunk Lows, we are going to zoom out of the profile side of the shoes, because we now want to look at the toe box and its inflation level.

In the image with the real vs fake Lobster SB Dunk Lows above, we have pointed out how the replica Lobster Dunks have their toe box deflated.

In most cases and releases, the Nike SB Dunk Low shoes must have their toe box thick, with an over-inflated look, and the fake shoes sometimes tend to have their toe box too little inflated.

That is the case here as well: the fake shoes have their toe box looking too small and thin, and the legitimate Lobster SB Dunk Lows have their toe box thicker and properly inflated.

Step 6: Verify the stitching on the midsole of your Nike Lobster SB Dunks

As for the sixth method on how to spot fake Lobster SB Dunk Low shoes, we are going to look at the fake vs real Lobster Dunks for their stitching on the midsole.

Step 7: Fake vs real Nike SB Dunk Low Lobster tongue thickness

Since the Lobster Dunks are a pair of Nike SB shoes, they automatically must have their tongue thick, since they are purposed to be skated into.

The flaw on some of the fake Lobster Concepts Lab SB Dunks is that they don’t really look like SBs, as they sometimes have their tongue looking too thin.

So as to properly see this detail, let’s have a look at the reference fake vs real Lobster Dunk Low image linked below.
