How to recognise Original adidas Superstars
The Adidas Superstars are the cult shoes par excellence and are celebrating their legendary comeback right now. But to make sure you don’t fall into the trap of the fakers, we’ve prepared a little fake check for you so you can stroll through the streets in original Superstars.
Watch out for the shoe strap
In many cases, the tab of the superstars already gives you information about original or plagiarism. It’s best to take the shoes in your hand and take a closer look at the label inside the flap. On all Original Superstars, the country of manufacture, shoe size, date of production, EAN (European Article Number) and serial number are indicated. It is also typical that the sizes are always indicated for different countries. You should also note that the serial number on the left shoe is usually not identical to the one on the right shoe. Also, check that the logo is printed on the outside of the tongue and not punched in. The exact design of the logo may vary depending on the year of manufacture and the Superstar model.
Look at the logo on the heel
The Characteristic of Original Adidas Superstars is the logo on the heel of the shoe. Take a closer look at the triple leaf in the logo: do the size and shape match the original? If not, it’s best to leave it alone. In contrast to the logo on the shoe tongue, the label should be embossed on the heel, whereas in fakes, the label is often only printed on the shoe.
Take a closer look at the sole
You are still not sure whether you really have original superstars in your hands? Then take a closer look at the sole. Because all Superstars soles have a certain pattern. Compare the grooves and the exact course of the lines with an original. You can find the necessary pictures on the official Adidas website.
Watch out for the original Adidas Superstars lettering & the stripes
In many cases, the Superstar models feature the Superstar lettering above the characteristic three stripes. Make sure that this is printed and not punched in, and that the type and size of the lettering are true to the original and correctly positioned. Help is again provided by pictures from the official website. The same applies to the stripes. In many fake shoes, for example, the stripes are thicker and therefore appear slightly squeezed together.
Shoelaces
Make sure you check the number of eyelets on the shoelaces because this can give you information about original or plagiarism in a few seconds. Children’s and women’s sizes usually have exactly six eyelets, whereas for men’s models there should be seven.
