Along with every step of our guide on how to spot fake 58 Club Gulf Dunks, we are going to link reference real vs fake 58 Club Gulf Dunk images, and our images will hopefully help you easily differentiate between the real deal and the fake pairs.
To put it shortly, the fastest way to spot fake Nike SB Dunk Club 58 Gulf sneakers is to look at the size tag, as well as at the details on the back of your Dunks, because the replica Club 58 Gulf Dunks never have their text at the correct thickness. Don’t worry, spotting fake Club 58 SB Dunk pairs is not that hard.
For the first step of the guide on how to spot fake Club 58 Dunks, we are going to have a look at the real vs fake Club 58 Gulf Dunks for their size tags.
The same as how we’ve previously mentioned, we consider this the best way to spot fake Club 58 SB Dunks, because the fake pairs never have their text properly detailed.
In the picture with the real vs fake Gulf Dunks above, you can see how the fake size tag is totally different from the one seen on the authentic shoes.
Looking at the style-code’s text, you can see how the fake shoes have their “BQ6817-401” SKU text looking too small and too thick, and with too much space between the characters.
On the other hand, the authentic Nike SB Dunk Low Gulf sneakers have their style-code’s text looking thinner and with the characters placed closer to each other.
As for the “UPC” text and its numbers, you can observe how the fake Club 58 Gulf Dunks have their text using a font that’s too thin when compared to the legit font, which is thicker.
Now as for the bottom left corner of the size tag, the fake Club 58 Dunks have their letters too small and thick but also spaced out too much (in the “MADE IN VIETNAM” prints).
Back to the legit Nike x Club 58 Gulf Dunks, you can see how the “MADE IN VIETNAM” text looks bigger, thinner and how the characters are placed closer to each other.
Moving forward to the second step of the guide on how to spot fake Nike Club 58 Dunks, we are going to have a look at the real vs fake Club 58 Dunks for their details on the rear side.
The details on the rear side include the “NIKE” stitched text and the three lines of stitching that are horizontally parallel to each other.
In the picture with the fake vs real Club 58 Gulf Dunks above, we have pointed out how the fake shoes have their “NILE” text too small and too thin.
Looking at the genuine 58 Club Dunks, you can see how their “NIKE” inscription is bigger, thicker and more defined than the fake one.
Regarding the three lines of stitching in the middle of the shoes, you can see how the fake pair’s threads are too long and thick, while the authentic shoes have their stitches shorter and thinner.
Proceeding to the third step on how to spot fake Nike SB Dunk Low 58 Club Gulf, we are going to have a look at the suede material.
Precisely, we are going to talk about the shades of the suede on both the real vs fake Nike 58 Club Gulf Dunks.
The image with the fake vs real Club 58 Gulf Dunks above shows you how the fake shoes have their suede’s shade improperly detailed.
In fact, the replica shoes have a colour that looks washed out, as it is too light and too little saturated when put side-by-side with the legitimate Nike Gulf SB Dunks.
Speaking of which, the authentic shoes have a saturated and a more alive shade of blue, while the fake shoes have some sort of a baby blue shade, which is not as colourful as it is supposed to be on the legit Dunks.
Moving to the fourth method on how to spot replica Nike SB Dunk Gulf sneakers, we are going to have a look at the fake vs real SB Dunk Gulf pairs for their stitching on their Nike Swoosh logo.
So, zooming in both the fake vs real Club 58 Gulf Dunks, let’s quickly check the shape, the length and the thickness of the threads which craft the Nike Swoosh logos.
In the picture with the real vs fake Nike SB Dunk Low Gulf shoes above, we have placed the hand-emoji pointers so as to show you how the stitching on the fake shoes is too long and how the threads are way thicker than what they are supposed to be.
The legit Nike Gulf SB Dunk pair has its threads on the Swoosh looking thinner, smaller and shorter than the ones on the fake shoes.
Therefore, the stitching on the legit shoes tends to be less visible than the one on the fake shoes, where the threads are way too visible due to their size.
