          Pretty sure they are fake too...the guidi insole is usually attached with spikes and the leather quality seems very far from guidi one...have you used "certilogo app"? it's the best thing to do

                That's what I'd feared.

                I did get them from Grailed indeed. The seller has good feedback and doesn't seem particularly shady in our interactions, and while unable to produce any proof of purchase (and Certilogo only started this past AW17), indicates he'd bought them late 2016 at Hotoveli. I wonder if it's possible a fake could sneak it's way into their inventory, perhaps through a customer's exchange or somesuch?

                I'm still not entirely certain though; for the polished calf version, it would seem the leather isn't subjected to the same extent of washing/treatment more typical Guidi leathers are, allowing for the much cleaner look. That could be why the leather isn't as great.

                I can also say that the insole doesn't seem to be nailed on the 792V, and perhaps other Vibram models; I previously missized a Donkey copy off SSENSE which didn't have them either. The bizarro feel of this insole just doesn't seem right at all though (has anyone ever experienced a hard leather insole in Guidi?)

                And I just noticed that the stitching on the side of the heel cup has a notable gap between it and the throat stitching, where they converge - whereas in all the product photos, they do not have a gap. Suspicious.

                Thanks everyone for the input. I'll have to return them if I can't obtain a clear determination of authenticity.

                  Thoughts here? I've never seen a beanie produced by Paul. It seems a bit pedestrian and the texture of the fabric seems off.

                    I anyone familiar with this Webstore. They have good prices but the quality of the website has me a little skeptical.

                      Did anyone bought on https://dadmoscow.com or visited the shop in Moscow and can confirm they are legit sellers?
                      I ask because I never heard from the Shop before. I do not ask because I am assuming their stuff isn´t legit. Apologise in case this is not the right thread for this question.

                          Not legit. Notice how every size is in stock. There's a lot of sites with the same scheme and they usually pull their item codes and descriptions from farfetch

                                Hi all - first time requesting a legit check, unsure if I am formatting this correctly (added an imgur album link in the code, will amend if this is incorrect).

                                Recently obtained a Boris piece (size S) in a secondhand store in NYC. It appears to be a fairly lightweight sleeveless cotton jacket liner with a raw extended lining. Due to the nature of the store, the item came with zero information regarding season or product number, but I didn't notice any glaring omissions in the construction and picked it up for a steal price.
