Authenticate on the go

In a rush and can’t check the full guide? Use this list instead:

1. Check Size Tags:
   • Inspect the size tags inside your Off-White Hyperdunks. Replica Off-White Hyperdunk pairs often have size tag text that appears either too thin or too thick.
2. Verify Medial Text:
   • Examine your shoes for medial text. Fake Off-White Hyperdunk pairs typically have varying font weights and inconsistent kerning between their letters.
3. Inspect “THE TEN” Insoles:
   • Look at the “THE TEN” text on the insoles of your shoes. Counterfeit Off-White Hyperdunk pairs often have this text improperly shaped and font-weighted.
4. Analyze Rear Stitching:
   • Inspect the rear stitching of your shoes. Fake Off-White Hyperdunk pairs tend to have stitching on the rear side that is too thick and too long.
5. Examine Orange Tab Stitching:
   • Analyze the stitching over the orange tab. Counterfeit-produced Off-White Hyperdunks may have stitching with improper weighting, while genuine pairs consistently have stitches of the same weight.
6. Check “FOAM” Text on Midsole:
   • Examine the “FOAM” text on the midsole. Fake Off-White Hyperdunk pairs often have text that appears too thin with excessive spacing between the quotation marks.
7. Verify “SHOELACES” Text:
   • Authenticate the “SHOELACES” text on your Off-White Hyperdunk sneakers. In many cases, counterfeit Off-White Hyperdunk 2017 pairs have text that is too thin and positioned too far from the aglet.
8. Inspect Box Label Text:
   • Examine the text on the box label of your Off-White Hyperdunks. Fake Off-White Hyperdunks usually have text on the box label that appears too thin.
