We’d like to mention that the guide on how to spot fake Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 applies to every colourway of the sneakers.

How to spot fake Nike Air Zoom Spiridon Cage 2 Stussy

The fastest way to spot fake Nike x Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 is to check the size tag inside each shoe, as the fake shoes never have their text on the size tag at the correct thickness, while the authentic shoes always have their text properly font-weighted.

Step 1: Real vs fake Nike Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 size tag

As we’ve previously mentioned, we consider the size tag as the most reliable sign of authenticity when speaking of the fake vs real Stussy Spiridon Cage 2s.

Therefore, this is why we are starting the guide on how to spot fake Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 with the size tag.

First of all, and as promised at the beginning of the guide, we are first going to check out the fake vs real Nike x Stussy Air Zoom Spiridon Cage 2 image below, and then, we’ll explain the flaws of the fake Spiridon Cage 2s.

Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 Real Vs Fake Size Tag

Now that you’ve had a look at the reference fake vs real Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 image above, let’s see the individual flaws on the fake shoes.

First of all, looking at the “VY” text on the top-right corner of the size tag, you can see how the fake shoes have their inscription looking too thin.

On the other hand, looking at the authentic Stussy Spiridon Cage 2s, you can see how the shoes have their “VY” text looking thicker than the one on the fake pair.

Up next, going to the style code, one line lower, we have pointed out in the fake vs real Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 image above how the fake shoes also have their “CQ5486-200” text looking too thin.

Once again, the authentic Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 Nikes have their text looking thicker and more defined than the one found on the replica shoes.

Lastly, in the Nike x Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 fake vs real image above, we have shown you how the fake shoes have their “MADE IN VIETNAM” lines of text looking, too thin.

The legitimate Stussy Spiridon Cage 2s have their lines of text which indicate the country of manufacturing of the shoes looking thicker, once again than the ones found on the fake Nike x Stussy shoes.

With this being said for the size tag of the real vs fake Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 pairs, let’s move on to the second way on how to spot a fake Nike Air Zoom Spiridon Cage 2 Stussy pair.

Step 2: Fake vs real Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 rear details

Proceeding to the second way on how to spot fake Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 shoes, we will have to flip the shoes to the rear side and check out the details found on the back of the fake vs real Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 pairs.

As you may know already, we will first have a look at the reference real vs fake Nike Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 image below, and then, we will explain the flaws of the fake pair.

Fake Vs Real Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 Rear Details

First of all, you can see how the fake shoes have their “STUSSY” text too big, wide and thick when compared to the text found on the authentic shoes.

Then, looking back at the reference real vs fake Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 image above, we have pointed out how the fake shoes have their stitching all around the patch with the “STUSSY” patch looking too thick and long.

Moving back to the authentic Stussy Air Zoom Spiridon Cage 2 sneakers, we have placed the hand-emoji pointer in order to show you how the stitching on the legit shoes’ patch is thinner and shorter than the one on the fake shoes.

Lastly, looking at the “zoom air” text printed over the air bubble of the shoes, we have shown you in the real vs fake Stussy Air Zoom Spiridon Cage 2 image above how the fake shoes have their text too small and misplaced.

The placing flaw is given by the fact that the fake shoes have their “zoom air” text placed too high, while the authentic shoes have the same text looking bigger, as it covers the whole surface of the air bubble.

Step 3: Check the print on the insole of your Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 Nikes

Going to the third method on how to spot fake Nike Air Zoom Spiridon Cage 2 Stussy sneakers, we will have a look at the insole of the fake vs real Spiridon Cage 2s.

As always, we are first going to give the real vs fake Nike x Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 image below a look, and then, we will also speak of the flaws on the fake shoes.

How To Tell Fake Stussy Spiridon Cage 2

In the fake vs real Stussy x Nike Spiridon Cage 2 image above, we have pointed out how the fake shoes have three main font-weight flaws.

First, the “zoom” text on the fake pair’s insole is too thin, and the same print found on the legit pair’s insole is thinner.

Then, looking at the “AIR” text below the line, the fake shoes have their letters once again looking too thin.

Lastly, the same flaw applies to the Nike Swoosh logo found below the “AIR” text, where the fake shoes have their logo looking too thin.

The authentic Nike Stussy Air Zoom sneakers will always have their prints on the insole at the same font weight, while the fake shoes are most commonly found to have different thicknesses for their inscriptions.

Now, let’s move on to the fourth way on how to legit check the Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 shoes.

Step 4: Inspect the Nike Swoosh logo found on the side of your Stussy Spiridon Cage 2

As for the fourth step of the guide on how to authenticate Nike Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 sneakers, we will have to flip the shoes to the side and check out the placement and the size of the Nike Swoosh logo.

In order to make everything clear, we will use the help of the reference fake vs real Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 image below.

How To Spot Fake Stussy Spiridon Cage 2

In the real vs fake Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 image above, we have pointed out how the fake shoes have their Nike Swoosh logo looking too big. Therefore, the logo is misplaced.

So as to show this flaw, we have positioned three hand-emoji pointers in the fake vs real Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 image above.

First of all, we have pointed out how the authentic shoes have their Nike Swoosh logo placed in the middle of the patch inside the cage, as the legit logo is centred.

On the other hand, the fake shoes have their Nike Swoosh logo placed more to the front of the shoes, as it is placed closer to the leftmost cage.

Then, another flaw that contributes to the placement of the logo is the thickness and size of the logo, as the fake shoes have their Nike Swoosh logo too thick.

The authentic Stussy Spiridon Cage 2s have their Nike Swoosh logo looking thinner, therefore looking a bit smaller than the logo found on the fake shoes.

Third of all, and last of all, we have pointed out in the fake vs real Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 image above how the fake shoes have their Nike Swoosh logo looking too short, bulky and thick at the top tip.

Looking back at the authentic Stussy Spiridon Cage 2s, we have pointed out how the legit shoes have their top of the Nike Swoosh logo looking longer, sharper, and thinner at the top tip.

The steps we’ve written so far are the best ways to authenticate this item.

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: Inspect the text on the tongue of your Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 sneakers

Going to the next way on how to spot fake Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 shoes, we will go on the upper side of the fake vs real Nike x Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 pairs, and we will have to verify the “STUSSY” text on the tongues.

Step 6: Check the details on the front block of your shoes

For the sixth way how to spot fake Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 sneakers, we will have to look at the sneakers from the front in order to verify the quality of the printings.

How To Legit Check Stussy Spiridon Cage 2

The eight dots found on the front block of the fake shoes appear to be too thin and irregularly painted when compared to the authentic shoes.

That is because the fake shoes have their dots’ paint a bit more over the outline of a perfect circle, while the authentic shoes have their paint exactly shaped as perfect circles.

Up next, looking at the “STUSSY” text, we have pointed out in the fake vs real Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 image above how the fake shoes have their text looking too thin.

On the other hand, the authentic shoes’ “STUSSY” text is thicker than the one found on the authentic shoes.

How To Authenticate Stussy Spiridon Cage 2

First of all, looking at the “AIR ZM SPIRIDON CG 2 / STUSSY” text at the top of the label, we have pointed out in the fake vs real Stussy Spiridon Cage 2 image above how the fake box label has its text looking too thin.

Then, looking at the “CQ5486200” product ID code at the bottom of the box, you can see how the fake shoes use a different font for their text, as it is also too thin on the fake box.
