Thank you!!
shannahh
@niki88nm You’re welcome! I have seen way too many fake Uggs for sale on here for close to retail prices 😬
niki88nm
@shannahh yea im kinda getting let down.. ive purchased some good stuff but i know ive gotten some fake stuff.. so Im doubting Posh's commitment to sale real stuff
shannahh
@niki88nm It can be really hard to tell sometimes!
obrienkrystal
Looking at these pictures, other than the outverted stitching... I still can't tell what all the circled stuff means 😢
sleiteritz
@obrienkrystal ditto 🤔😶
karisander79
Also there’s supposed to be 2tags inside the left boot,one which is a holographic one in the newer uggs.
shannahh
@karisander79 Correct! 😃 Good call
I had some screenshot pictures of crappy foldover style fake tags but ran out of room to post them here
shannahh
@sleiteritz Haha 😄! Sorry, I know it is a lot! I wanted to put words on the photos too but it was all just so much. Too much to comment upon for each one
Basically everything circled is a sign of fake-ness with the different boots. I have those “D” shaped suede pieces circled on a lot of photos... they all have a single line of stitching (authentic UGGs have double stitching/two lines). It is a dead giveaway
shannahh
@obrienkrystal ^^^ see above
I know it is a lot! There was too many wrong things in each photo to add words/captions on all of them
mandi_g
Great post!!!! Thank you!!!! 🎀🎀🎀🎀
shannahh
@mandi_g You’re welcome! I hope this helps 😃
apparelaffaire
THANK YOU! Ive seen sooo many fakes on here, & Alot of people cant tell the difference! This will help alot of people!
shannahh
@brysmum08 Yay! Glad it is helpful! A couple of these photos are pretty good fakes. I can see how people could be easily tricked. Many of the boots here in the collages actually ended up selling! I saw some sell for as high as $125-140. INSANE 😵

@shannahh thank you for posting this! I too have seen a lot of knock offs on here. I’ve brought it to an ambassadors attention and she let me handle the situation but the boots are still up for sale at 70.00. I have an extensive collection of Uggs so I can spot a fake. The problem is convincing the person selling them that they got swindled!
shannahh
@mrsmurr You’re welcome!! There are definitely some good fakes out there. Some of the Bailey Bow ones especially look really nice but sadly they are fake.
I have had so many people say they specifically bought their (blatantly fake) boots at Nordstrom. Sometimes, if they have the box, the box itself will look real. I am convinced scammers may buy real boots there & return fakes in the boxes which are then resold to unsuspecting customers!
mrsmurr
@shannahh what a shame on so many counts! You would think Nordstrom would be checking these returns. I’m not sure who to even contact on Poshmark to have fakes taken down. I clearly told the last girl that she could get in trouble for reselling them but has left them up. I don’t want to come off as a “know it all” to people just have seen the legit and the fakes, it’s a buyer beware situation.
kyaanderson
@shannahh I just saw a post that was a pair in an ugg bag
shannahh
@kyaanderson This is a tricky one! I have seen some posts online talking about different Ugg bags and some being authentic. I wonder if that is an older thing? 🧐
I have ordered several pairs recently direct from the UGG site itself and none have bags, or any plastic wrap on the boots. Just the tissue paper and cardboard foot & shaft inserts.
In my collage pics here at least, the Uggs seen in the plastic wrap are clearly fake.
shannahh
@kyaanderson I have not personally shopped at an Ugg store though, so I cannot comment as to how their latest shopping bags look from a physical location. I’d love to hear tips if anyone has any!
I have seen some super funky fake Uggs on here though, wrapped up in plastic bag wrap covers with the Ugg logo on it
shannahh
@mrsmurr Yikes. That pair you just tagged me on is absolutely fake. So many notable issues with the shape, tag, and materials/workmanship. And the price?! 😮😧😱 Ahhhh
mrsmurr
@shannahh yep exactly! She took the listing down.
keepmecute511
@shannahh Hey Love I was wondering if you could help me! I’m looking for a cheaper pair if Uggs bc I live in Hawaii and only need a pair for when I make trips to visit family in colder weather. I’m not very familiar with Uggs at all and a lot of the pairs I’m coming across have a bottom sole that is different then shown on the website! Instead of the Sunburst design, they have the stripe in the middle with the little suns!
keepmecute511
@shannahh Is it okay if I tag you in one so you can let me know if Uggs with those soles are fake or if it’s just a really old pair?
shannahh
@keepmecute511 Hi! Sure, you can tag me! I’ll take a look and then reply here. Those old ones with the former sole pattern are sometimes tricky to decipher if they are authentic or not, due to the pattern wearing down over time with wear. I’ll take a look though! 😃
keepmecute511
@shannahh You’re awesome! I’ll tag you now!
shannahh
@keepmecute511 Oof. Those are definitely some tricky ones because of how old they are! The stitching looks pretty good, and the toes and boot shafts look good and seem to have the right shape. One thing that gives me pause is the back labels on the heel and how they are kind of pixelated and it is hard to clearly see the spacing on the letters in the word “Australia” (uneven spacing would be a sign of fakeness, but these are sort of blurry 🧐).
shannahh
@keepmecute511 Also I am not completely sure on how the inside tag labels are supposed to look in older Uggs. This must have been before the single strip tag listing sizes in front of a second strip tag with the Ugg holograms.
The fur looks pretty good! (it doesn’t have that fake shiny look to it)
In any event, $20 is a great price! I would take the chance on it
keepmecute511
@shannahh You are absolutely amazing! Thank you so much! I truly appreciate it! 😘
shannahh
@keepmecute511 You’re welcome! For $20, and just for use to going to cold places, I would say those are worth it 😃. And if/when you no longer want or need them, you could surely resell for at least that price or more!
awuraposh
@emmaaknox
shannahh
@thequeen1017 Oooh yay, you are welcome!! There are a ton of fakes on here
I almost have enough new photos for a whole new post of examples haha
shannahh
@awuraposh I saw those Uggs.... the fur is definitely a giveaway 😬. I would have also wondered about seeing the barcode on the outside of the shoe box, and to see if the photo of the item and item name/title matched up. And of course like you mentioned, looking for the colored stripe across the top of the barcode
caliqqqq
Off Topic question- Can u tell me if water damaged uggs can be repaired by using uggs cleaning products or not able to? It’s actually my daughters question thx!!
shannahh
@caliqqqq Hi! I have had some luck using the Uggs cleaning set to remove water stains from boots. Though with other pairs, the stains have not come out as easily. I think it may depend on how long the stain has been there for, like how set in it is.
shannahh
@caliqqqq Also there are some great videos online of people pretty much cleaning Uggs in a sink... including fully submerging in water, and even using a front-loading washing machine 😮. (Never the dryer)
On the Ugg site though, their official cleaning video shows them just dampening the boots.
I had the best luck cleaning a black pair and a chestnut pair of my own boots. Not so much luck with my purple or pink pairs though 😐
caliqqqq
@shannahh tnx you, I’ll tell my daughter 😊
sensiblesoles
Hi ladies! Great post!!! I’m glad we all have support on here and love seeing Poshers helping each other out ❤️ Feel free to check out my closet with Authentic UGG Boots as well as other designer shoes 🙂 Not only do I sell on here but I purchase lots of things as well & understand the fear of getting ripped off, thankfully it’s never happened to me. Well happy Poshing ladies.
tamielliott
Is there a way to spot a fake in moccasins/slippers? I am looking to buy several pair for my staff and I want to make sure that they are real.
shannahh
@tamielliott Hi! That is a good question 🤔! I am unfortunately not as familiar with the slippers and moccasins as I am with the various boot styles.
I would think some of the same things would apply though ... looking for stitching that looks too prominent or uneven, fur that seems too shiny/thin/fake, shoddy seams & bindings, and logos in the wrong spot or with poorly spaced lettering.
shannahh
@tamielliott What sort of slippers are you looking at? The Fluff Momma slip-on ones, or the kind where it encompasses your whole foot?
shannahh
@torii0126 Thank you so much! Your Uggs look very nice! 😃 Wishing you speedy sales
tamielliott
@shannahh I am looking for the moccasins or sort of clog style.
asis2010
@tamielliott Thanks so much for helping us out. Very king from you 😃
shannahh
@asis2010 You’re welcome!! Hopefully it helps! 😃
tamielliott
@asis2010 ?
sophy_picks
Whoaaa! Thank you for this! I always see the reported replica Uggs when I’m reviewing reported listings and I always think “No way, why would anyone waste their time making replica Uggs?” I had no idea they were this common! 😱
sophy_picks
Btw I saw you talking about the Fluff Momma’s in the previous comments.. I’ve been looking for a pair of those since 2008!!
shannahh
@sophy_treasure You’re welcome! Hopefully it is helpful! There are a ton of fake Uggs on here. When they sell for a super low price that’s one thing. But when someone is charging very close to the full retail price for a fake pair, as if they were authentic ones, it is pretty ridiculous.
And I love Fluff Mommas! I finally got the white pair a last month. They are so wild and furry but comfy as can be!
salvicutie82
OMG! Great post! thank you for the info.
shannahh
@salvicutie82 You’re welcome! I am thinking of making a second post with all new pictures ... there are so many fakes on here, it has become kind of fun hunting them down like 🧐🧐🧐 haha
salvicutie82
@shannahh Seriously! You go girl! I will come to you for authentication before I buy any uggs here lol
shannahh
@lisagwilliams Hey! I would say that pair is not authentic. I have never seen real Uggs come with the little size number stickers on the back of the soles. There is something off about the soles.... like the material is too “foam”-y looking. Also the brand label looks to be placed too high up on the back heel.
And then looking at the box, the bar code does not have a colored line across the top of it.
shannahh
@lisagwilliams But, I will say the price is reasonable if you are not looking for something authentic! If they were priced at like $125, it would be a whole different story haha
shannahh
@lisagwilliams Oh lord, and they have a hang TAG attached! Stuck right through the boot 😧😑
lisagwilliams
@shannahh Thx hun😘 I agree, the price was the first indication- but maybe that what she meant by “price reflects authenticity” Too good to b true imo- I’m only going for the og authentic Ugg’s! Ur such a doll to help your fellow poshers 😇🌈 I love this community 💕
shannahh
@lisagwilliams You’re welcome! 😃 When I read the description, that was the impression I got too. Like what it implies is that because the price is so low, that should be your big indicator about whether they are really authentic. I don’t blame you for wanting just the original authentic ones! The quality is great and they last a long time if taken care of properly!
lisagwilliams
@shannahh I agree, they last forever if you take good care of them- which is why I have an older pair for yucky days to preserve my fancier ones. Well hopefully whoever buys them knows what they’re getting! Have a wonderful night hun💕
zoeykk
@shannahh oh wow! I didn't know half of this stuff! Ty so much for posting this!!!!
jbritthb
@zoeykk @shannahh may I tag you on the ones I like from other pages and respond real or fake?
zoeykk
@jbritthb yes please do!!
shannahh
@jbritthb Hi! Yes, definitely feel free to tag me on whatever Ugg listings you’d like :)
shannahh
@lisagwilliams Oh yeah, those are totally fake! Wrong tags, overly slopes forefoot, stitches across the top edges, fur looks overly shiny/thin.... BUT, the price is pretty low so if someone doesn’t care about authenticity, it may not make a difference to them
shannahh
@lisagwilliams OMG... and I just saw the tag says “Made in Australia” 😆
lisagwilliams
@shannahh I know the tag geesh haha. It is so nuts how many fakes appear on here 🙄
shannahh
@lisagwilliams Haha! So many is right!
shannahh
@mrsmurr Oh yes, those purple boots are totally fake 😬
mrsmurr
@shannahh I know! She took them down...
shannahh
@mrsmurr I just left a long comment listing why they were fake. That hologram tag was not how they are supposed to look. The hang tag on it was a dead giveaway, not to mention the shape, size stickers at the heels, too-shiny fur, and binding stitching.
mrsmurr
@shannahh yes I tried to leave a comment but it wouldn’t allow me to post. Not sure if she took them down or blocked me.
shannahh
@mrsmurr No, she took it down I think. She said she was not aware of them being fake, and was going to take them to an Ugg store to be looked at. It would be one thing if they were only $25.... but $125 for fake boots is just like AAAAHHH 😵
mrsmurr
@shannahh I feel badly for those that truly get taken on these knockoffs.
cairebear09
@skylalaufer Here’s the post I mentioned. Pay close attention to the stitching that the bows are attached to. Real= double stitching. Fake= single stitch. Hope this helps!
shannahh
@cairebear09 Yes, always a good thing to look for! Those single-stitched “D” pieces are a dead giveaway to the boots being fake.’ Hopefully this pictures help!
I have collected almost enough photos of fake boots on here to start a couple new full collage threads haha
cairebear09
@shannahh It’s helped a lot!! This post helped pass the info on to another Posher, unfortunately delivering the bad news she had been had. 😣. @skylalaufer see above post ☝🏻☝🏻☝🏻. Thanks again for your awesome pointers @shannahh! Happy Poshing! 😊
skylalaufer
@cairebear09 thank you ladies sucks that I was played wish I would of seen this post before I bought them
shannahh
@skylalaufer Ah dang. Yes, there are a ton of fakes on here and people charging nearly full retail prices for them.... it’s nuts! Also when something is specifically listed as “authentic” when it is clearly NOT 😡.
tobyoshi1028
thank you for the great post ! I'm learning everyday from poshers like you thank thank you!
tobyoshi1028
should we report as replica when we see fakes??
shannahh
@tobyoshi1028 Hi! You could probably do that, or maybe just point it out politely to the seller. It seems like a lot of people do not even realize their boots are not authentic! It’s always a tricky situation though 😬
shannahh
@mrsmurr I had written the same whole thing out to that seller listing all of the specifics of why her boots are fake and what precisely makes them that way. She deleted the comments! Apparently she also deleted yours telling her the same exact thing - but I can see what you wrote as it calms up in my notifications feed.
Gah. That is super shady to delete comments saying the boots are fake. Some unsuspecting buyer is going to pay a lot for those and they are not authentic!
mrsmurr
@shannahh interesting I didn’t think you could delete comments. Well, hopefully people are aware. SMH 🤦🏼♀️
shannahh
@mrsmurr I think you can “report” comments, which is what I am guessing she did. But it is not like our comments were bad or incorrect or anything! It was all true! Those boots are clearly not authentic, and she is deceiving potential buyers. ESP trying to sell them for $120! 😮
mrsmurr
@shannahh yes, not sure but perhaps a complaint to customer service to alert them of the posting will get it removed. We’re these the white colored ones I tagged you in? Can’t find them now.
shannahh
@mrsmurr Hi, yes, it was a white pair in plastic bags with fake hang tags that I tagged you on. She had deleted all of my other comments and yours, except that tag. Maybe she took down the listing?? Or someone else reported it?? Idk.... 🧐
shannahh
@mrsmurr Found it. Still up, but the price is now $50
mrsmurr
@shannahh not finding them so perhaps she took them down. Just found another pair! 🤦🏼♀️😂😂😂
heatherelana__j
@niki88nm I had an account on posh called @fakemakeupexpos where I shared pictures of fake makeup and poshmark suspended my ability to buy anything or pretty much do anything but browse the app. I asked them about it and they told me they were direct quote "aware of the issue of counterfeit items in the poshmark community" but yet I see fake listings on a daily basis that I have personally reported and are still up so.. take that how you will lol
shooksters
My uggs I bought from an Ugg store in downtown Chicago, 7 years ago; have different tags then the ones in your pictures???
shannahh
@thestylecloset7 The hang tags in these pictures are all fake. What tags do you mean from your boots? Like the inside tag with the label?
shooksters
@shannahh no the one on the back of the heel that says ugg
shannahh
@thestylecloset7 That back label has changed over time. The newest ones only say “UGG”, without the Australia part. The older heel tags may also have a different background
shannahh
@thestylecloset7 Basically, you WANT your tags & boots to look different from all of these ones here, because these pictures all show fake boots! Haha (with the exception of the one classic tall boot at the end with the green check mark ✅ )
shooksters
@shannahh Thank You
lisagwilliams
@carmenrperez@meliablythe@sammy_beaver101 Those black Ugg Bailey bows are fake- just a heads up for u
shannahh
@ltr1011 Hi! I think that pair you tagged me on is authentic. The stitching and trim all look to be neatly done and even, and the D pieces have the double stitching like they are supposed to. I am not too familiar with boots with that sort of shiny material since it comes out as looking kind of floppy, but I am guessing that is how they are meant to be. They are pretty boots!
ltr1011
@shannahh perfect!!! You are amazing. Thanks for your help. It is greatly appreciated!!😘😘
shannahh
@ltr1011 You’re welcome!! And thanks so much for all of the shares 😃😃
I think those are the Bailey Bow glitter leopard boots. Seems like a good deal!
libbied
Thanks!!
aclark59
Which ones are the 8.5?
shannahh
@aclark59 Hi! These are all just photos of fake boots other folks are selling or have sold, to help warn people about what NOT to buy. I listed the different sizes for visibility. I am not selling fake Uggs for $3 haha
aclark59
@shannahh lol I was hoping!
wearitloveit
Wow your good!!!
wearitloveit
@niki88nm I bought a vs T-shirt. Nothing fancy right!!!??? But it was fake. The girl who I bought it from was so angry at me- it was scary. And to think she has my address. But the shirts design was like an iron on patch. It was weird. I reported it to vs.
natalieosorio13
Hey is it possible to tag you in a post to check authenticity?
shannahh
@natalieosorio13 Yes, you can tag me and I will take a look 😊
dcsorel
Amen!!!! Sister!!!🎉😘❤️💝🎈🤙🏻🎊💕🌺🌈🧚🏼♀️
kaytlinchappel
@shannahh maybe we should just tag you when we want to buy something lol
shannahh
@kaytlinchappel Haha! I would be happy to take a look at the listing pics if you ever come across any boots that you aren’t quite sure about 😊
rileys15
This is horrible!!! If u actually want real uggs I’m selling a pair & I promise their real lol I’m no scammer
claireskidmore3
Does UGG make boots with pouches on the sides. There are a pair size 11 for 65 dollars in a tan color. I was thinking of purchasing. If you have the time could you check them out😏
shannahh
@claireskidmore3 I think I have seen some like that.... feel free to tag me on the listing so I can look at the photos! 😊
claireskidmore3

Here is the link
shannahh
@claireskidmore3 Dang it won’t let me click that link for some reason! If you just tag my username on there (@shannahh) on the listing, I can comment back here able the Boots
claireskidmore3
I tagged you did it work this time?
shannahh
@claireskidmore3 No, this seems to be the only comment I have 😶
claireskidmore3
How about now I think I missed a letter before
lcameron2056
Hi I am interested in the brown UGGs. I need help selecting them when I order 😫
shannahh
@lcameron2056 I am not selling fake boots. I don’t have or own any of these. These pictures are to show people what to avoid buying so they don’t pay full price for fraud boots!
lcameron2056
Ok that is great news! I was confused but wanted to ask just to make sure for a family I help sometimes.
applebottom3
@shannahh very helpful, thanks for sharing

@huffstuttler yes?
wendlelynn
Are these 3.00
shannahh
@wendlelynn I am not selling fake boots, this is just an informational post to help people know what to look for so they can avoid buying knockoff boots! It is listed as $3 because Posh does not allow $0 listings
shannahh
@kimberblah Here are some pictures that show more detail. I have one other post I can tag you on too if you’d like to see
kimberblah
@shannahh Thanks Shanna.
kimberblah
@shannahh You were right! The UGGS I had listed were fakes. I took the listing down. Thanks for the heads up!
shannahh
@kimberblah You’re welcome! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news though 😬
kimberblah
@shannahh No apologies necessary! You saved me a lot of trouble! Keep doing what you're doing!
discolemonade48
Can I tag you in a pair I just bought and you call tell me if they’re fake!?
shannahh
@discolemonade48 Sure, I will take a look!
shannahh
@discolemonade48 Oof. That pair is really tricky because the image quality is so poor! 😐 The lighting and boots themselves are really dark, and it is hard to see the fur and soles clearly. It does not look like there is any holographic tag, but maybe she just didn’t show it ??
discolemonade48
@shannahh darn ! I thought the stitching in the back looked like what you said the fake ones look like. from what you see do they look real?
shannahh
@discolemonade48 It is so hard to tell from those photos. I tried turning my screen brightness way up. The boots are such a dark color, and so it is hard to see the material and fur. Plus with how some of the pics are at angles, it makes it hard to see how well the heel labels line up. This could just be a old pair of the classic style boot that is more worn. When you get them, you could always take them to a store that sells Uggs to see if they can authenticate them in person!
discolemonade48
@shannahh okay thanks so much!
gaylene_wilcox
Thank you. I'm new and I have already been fooled. Going to be more careful that's for sure
lvhooks
Thank you I have been doing a lot of research and you have really put it into perspective for me
lvhooks
I have about five pair from Dillards. I think they date back to at least six years ago and they have a holographic label I’ve asked people to provide of the label and a picture and they don’t.. Have you say fake holographic labels. I bought a pair the other day and they look so real but there is no tag inside. I got them for an unbelievably low price and the lady said her daughter Tears out all tags. I can’t wait to get home I know that he’s not lying
lvhooks
What about Megan Vietnam because aren’t they made in China
shannahh
@lvhooks I would be suspicious of someone who says that their child tears out all of the tags... 🧐. Seems a bit sketchy haha. I am not sure about the made in Vietnam ones. I have heard stories of people buying real boots at Dillards and then returning them with a pair of fake boots in the box and getting a refund (while keeping the authentic boots)
lvhooks
@shannahh People are so sketchy. I have now checked all of my booth. I only paid $25 for the torn out tag on boots. I am certain that all of mine are real . I have been wanting to buy a pair on Poshmark for my daughter and I think the Bailey Bows are so questionable. Do you know anything about the uptown lace up uggs? I love them but I honestly believe they are not real because look at the bottom
lvhooks
@shannahh If any of mine are questionable I will go to Dillards they know me there that’s how many I have purchased between me and my daughter I think 13 pairs in five years. I will demand my money back because it will have the logo on it or proof of purchase I mean Are there any Bailey Bows that I should buy right now
dani_girl45005
Like the boots .my question is any years? I have severe back problems need boot with no heel.
shannahh
@dani_girl45005 Hey, I am not selling any of these. They are all just photos of fake boots other people were selling. This is meant to be an informational post to help show people what to look out for so they can avoid buying fakes 😊
kayesther
LOVE this! I used to work in shoes at Nordstrom, and we had an Ugg rep come in and show us how to tell real Uggs from fake ones. There’s some incredible fakes out there that are nearly indistinguishable from real ones, and posts like this can help a lot of people from getting scammed!
shannahh
@kayesther Yay! Yes, I hope it is helpful! I have heard stories from stores such as Nordstrom and Dillard’s where scammers will buy a real pair of Uggs, then return a fake lookalike pair in the real box to the store for a refund. Thus getting their money back AND keeping the authentic new boots. It is nuts! And then some unsuspecting buyer comes along and buys fake boots in a real box.... horrible 😠
iolr000
@niki88nm and people sell things for a crazy amount... I shop on this site and I bought the shirt for $4 and it always has been that price. On here they sell it for $32!! On here they even used the photo from the other site
eso1224

hfeurt13
@shannahh @shannahh @shannahh Hi could you help me please? I don’t think they are authentic but I can’t tell. User name : @thrftee_chicks
thrftee_chicks
@hfeurt13 I’m doing some research now and pulling tags to make sure... brb
thrftee_chicks
@hfeurt13 I added a couple pics... scan the code and it takes u directly to ugg website and they are genuine sheepskin! 🤔
thrftee_chicks
@hfeurt13 please let me know if mine are fake as I assume they are real.... where I got them I would expect only real!!! 😐
shannahh
@thrftee_chicks @hfeurt13 Sorry ladies, those boots are not authentic ☹️☹️
Makers of fraud boots can easily sew “real” tags & hologram things into their fake boots.
shannahh
@eso1224 That pink pair is authentic! And seems like a great price 😃
eso1224
@shannahh thankyou so much for your help... now I can buy them!
eso1224
Hi I need help again...lol... can you find her as @barbiemania... size 7 blue green uggs please... let me know if authentic!
eso1224
And one more @danielle_ph ... blue uggs size 6.5... let me know thanx!
barbiemania
@eso1224 my Ugg’s are authentic I just don’t wear it much. No need to tag my name on some bs
shannahh
@eso1224 Hi! So the knit blue green woven Uggs seem pretty good. The woven ones are always a bit trickier when it comes to examining for authenticity, but the knit looks even and the label stitching appears good. I just wonder about the box shown in the 1st picture —- the label seems to say “chestnut” ?! So I would wonder if that box came with a different pair of boots
shannahh
@eso1224 Hi, and the blue size 6.5 boots look great! Even stitching, good tag placement, proper shape, nice looking fur.... and an awesome price! Wow 😯
eso1224
@shannahh Thanx!...

Can someone please tell me if either of these pairs are authentic?

@isabellaasdfghj Hi, it won’t let me copy & paste those links.... could you tag me on the listings?
mgentry06
I’m currently looking to purchase two pairs ! Thank you so much for the information!
shannahh
@mgentry06 You’re welcome! Hopefully it is helpful!
shannahh
@isabellaasdfghj Hi, so the picture quality on those black Bailey button boots is absolutely horrendous (blurry, super up close, strange angles), but I think they are authentic. It is hard to see the full box, but the sticker itself on the box seems legit, and from what I could tell of the blurry pictures, I think the boots are okay. And for $15 you really can’t beat that price! They do seem really worn though
raggedysue1962
@niki88nm they don't care! I have seen listings where the seller has said in the listing that they are knock-offs. And that alone is against Posh policy. But you can send this information to Posh and they do nothing about it. And if you file a claim they'll usually side with the buyer. I am doing no more listings with posh and the moving to a new company that you have no fees accept a low monthly fee that covers everything.
highclass4less
Do you have any bow tie, tan sizes 7.5-8?
theresamason
Thanks I’m looking at a possible fake right now.. I can’t tell there is no box etc..
shannahh
@theresamason Is it one you’re trying to decide about buying yourself? You can tag me on it and I can take a look if you’d like!
rashonda_ruth
May I tag you in the uggs I'm interested in buying & you tell me if there fake or not
shannahh
@rashonda_ruth Hi! Yes, you can tag me!
ggo7861
Thank you good information! !☺
shannahh
@ggo7861 You’re welcome! Hopefully it is helpful 😃
nisa2794
Hello I have a few I have some questions about, do you think I can tag you in them?
shannahh
@nisa2794 Sure! That size 10 pair with the rope tie looks authentic, just damaged
janney2017
Can you help me see if my ugg boots are real? My mom got them for me at a local th page but they did not fit me. I want to sell them here but want to make sure they are real
phicetredd
Whatvare you selling
shannahh
@phicetredd None of these are owned by me or for sale. They are all photos of fake boots other people were selling/have sold. This is meant to be an informational post to show people what NOT to buy — aka specific features to look out for on boots when you are shopping so that you don’t end up with a fraud pair. Hopefully it is helpful!
shannahh
@janney2017 Yes, if you post pictures of them I will take a look!
shannahh
@dustycandy1 here are some more photos to use as a guide when you are shopping online for UGGs. This should help you know what features to look out for so that you don’t end up with a pair of bad boots
janney2017
@shannahh can you check my profile please I can't tag you thanks
phicetredd
I just decided to really get on here and try to shop. How does Poshmark really work.
shannahh
@phicetredd Well, fist of all know that I am not selling any of the boots pictured here. This is an informational guide to show people what features to look out for when shopping online for UGGs and specifically what NOT to buy (aka if you see boots like this, chances are they may be fake).
shannahh
@phicetredd Are you shopping for Uggs? If you see any pairs you are not sure about the authenticity of, feel free to tag me on the listing and I will take a look
nisa2794
@shannahh I tagged you in 3 more I believe !
tonyaarellano
Best way to shop Dillard’s for Ugg. It’s Authentic real at Dillard’s. That’s where’s i purchased mine ugg❤️💗
shannahh
@tonyaarellano Gotta be careful with Dillard’s sometimes though.... I have heard about them and Nordstrom being places where people buy authentic UGG boots, then return lookalike knockoff boots in the real box and get a full refund (basically getting the authentic boots AND a full refund). It’s nuts!
tonyaarellano
@shannahh Really! I never thought that ! Wow people!!! What’s a terrible thefts
pippinshop12
@shannahh great tutorial to help authenticate UGGs❤️
brownie2kd
How do you know what color you get?
shannahh
@brownie2kd Hi, sorry, but you do not get any. I don’t own any of these. Hopefully this post is not confusing! It is meant to just be a guide to show people what specific features to look out for when they are shopping online for UGGs. It won’t let me list it as free/$0, because $3 is the minimum allowed amount. I’m not sure why people keep “buying” it 😬. If you ever need help authenticating a pair of boots on here, feel free to tag me on the listing!
viaalexiss
I actually worked at UGG for 5 years so I can definitely spot the fakes as well.
shannahh
@viaalexiss You would not believe the number of people on here who are selling suuuuper obvious fakes and yet insist repeatedly that theirs are authentic. It’s maddening!
shannahh
@lissetel Yes, that is fine!
cokiethebaby
Great post!!!
shannahh
@sara_bethhhh It won’t let me reply to you on that post! I have no idea why! Did she block me? I was going to reply about those boots — It’s hard to quite discern from the photo quality 😶. And the back heel label is not totally visible/clear... it is different in terms of the tag color from the first stock photo though.
This price is on the reasonable side at least!
sara_bethhhh
@shannahh my main issue was she had pictures of 100% authentic boots posted first and a few one the ones she has now . The fur was kinda shiny and didn’t look like regular ugg fur. She ended up deleting the pictures of the real uggs off the post after I said something
sara_bethhhh
@shannahh I believe Poshmark took the post down because it’s gone but I can still see her page
shannahh
@sara_bethhhh Her photos definitely appeared different with the fur and the stitching. Also the heel label colors. I wonder if someone else reported it?! I know I didn’t. I couldn’t even comment on it so Idk
ekarboots
Wow, thanks for posting this! Helps a bunch!
imperfection17
Thank you so much for this!! I was just starting to look into some on here and other sites and this is good information to know!
shannahh
@ekarboots You’re welcome! I’m so glad it is helpful 😃
shannahh
@imperfection17 You’re welcome! Hopefully it is helpful! 😃
nishasny
@obrienkrystal same 🤦🏾♀️
katiep21257
@shannahh Hi, I don’t know if you’re still doing this but can I tag you in one or two to see if they are fake or not please?
shannahh
@katiep21257 Hi! Yes, you can definitely tag me 😃
I have just gotten fed up recently with people who keep BUYING this listing thinking they are somehow going to get UGG boots for $3 haha. I’m trying to educate here!
katiep21257
@shannahh Thank you! I’ll number them.
shannahh
@katiep21257 All 4 of those that you tagged me in appear to be authentic. Those rope ones are soooo cute! Ah I wish they had a size 8. I’d be all over that hehe
katiep21257
@shannahh Yay! Thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it😊
nicole0712
Quick question... do you know is poshmark does anything if someone sold/bought fake uggs?? Would you get a refund if you can prove they're fake? I'm new to poshmark so I'm just curious.
shannahh
@nicole0712 If it is within 3 days of when you received them, you can file for a return on here and give the reason as they are not authentic
abernethyk1
Hey, can I tag you in a picture?I tried figuring out myself but I wanna be sure.
shannahh
@abernethyk1 Hi, yes - you may tag me 😊
carrielee73
@calndrgirl
cldiaz95
@shannahh hi if I tag you in a photo can you tell me if they are real or not. I already bought them so it's kind of too late if they are. If you could just comment yes or no please
shannahh
@cldiaz95 Hi, so those look okay in terms of the fur and shape. The button is kind of strange.. I wonder if that is some other Ugg style because it is not the same kind of button as shown in the stock picture. But it could still be okay and just a different variation. That’s a good price!
cldiaz95
@shannahh I didn't even notice the button. Usually it says ugg on there 🤔
realitydixie
Yes, Thinking ur buying a pair of Uggs for $3 is ridiculous. Its also ridiculous to list shoes as "Good Uggs" & "Bad Uggs". What exactly is a "Bad" Ugg? I've never seen a Bad Ugg, however I have seen a FAKE Ugg. My point, maybe u shouldn't use the word "Ugg" in ur description if its Not An Ugg. Give a description of what ur selling, with *** and a footnote stating
"Not Uggs". If ppl buy stuff without reading description of what they're purchasing, that's their fault, not urs. 🐞🍀
shannahh
@realitydixie Thank you! Fake Uggs = Bad Uggs. They clearly are not true UGG boots, but that’s the way people see them. They are tagged as Uggs, have all the UGG logos, and are being sold by the sellers under the guise of being authentic “Uggs”. So for all intents and purposes people are viewing them as Uggs.
So this is to hopefully let them know that just because something appears one way, or is tagged/labeled as such, does not make it true.
shannahh
@realitydixie AND....
I’m also trying to give a lesson in reading comprehension 😄. It’s a valuable skill! haha
shannahh
@alyssaparent Here are some more examples if you’d like to check them out! If you compare your pair to the grey classic boots on the UGG site, that may also be helpful in spotting the differences. Just trying to save you from a buyer opening a case for selling fakes!
mrsmurr
@shannahh get your popcorn! Someone didn’t like me calling her fake Uggs out! 😂 So much more my “smart a$$” wanted to say but I held the Italian in.
shannahh
@lelero_designs Here are a bunch of photo examples about how to spot fake Uggs. Hopefully it is helpful!
shannahh
@mrsmurr The kicker is that she admitted she knows she is selling fakes! That is crazy!
shannahh
@classyk2 And here are more pictures! Feel free to tag me if you are ever looking at a pair of Uggs and aren’t sure if they are authentic or not. That grey pair was a super obvious fake... poor workmanship all around
mrsmurr
@shannahh Amen! I was telling my girlfriend about this this afternoon and she called us the “Ugg Police”. I’m waiting for either the block or a snarky response, get ready!🙄
shannahh
@mrsmurr haha!
It’s such a case of deception for the buyer though. Like if the person who bought them was expecting an authentic pair, and then they come to find out they actually are getting a shoddy, poorly-made knockoff 😐. I have bought actual authentic pairs on here for that low of a price
mrsmurr
@shannahh yep me too! In fact I bought a brand new pair of quilted leather ones today on FB market place for 70.00, daughter didn’t want them. I did! Yanks my chain when people like this chick gets all fussy about it. I’m like girl you’d be yanked if someone sold you fakes and said well ya should of looked closer.🤦🏼♀️
shannahh
@mrsmurr Ooh that’s a good price! Nice 😃
I hope the buyer of those boots either knows they are a fake or doesn’t mind either way. What’s funny though is I am pretty sure the box itself was an authentic box. The label and everything looked good. So basically she was potentially selling fake boots in a real box, and then saying it is up to the buyer to know they are not real. Despite the listing clearly saying UGG boots
mrsmurr
@shannahh I did mention that over on the post, hopefully the buyer is following. The other potential buyer did call her out too. Obviously that seller doesn’t care as long as she is getting paid. If Posh paid attention they’d boot her.😏
lelero_designs
@shannahh okay looking now ty
shannahh
@kelley101 And my other one!
cldiaz95
Hi I just tagged you can you give me your opinion on those
shannahh
@cldiaz95 Great boots! I soooo wish they were my size! That is a newer style of the boots that only says UGG on the back heel label tag and on the sole. Those look beautiful, and it is an excellent price for that style
cldiaz95
Thank you
bluehalox
Hi @shannahh I just tagged you in a listing can I get your opinion please 👍🏻👎🏻🙏
shannahh
@bluehalox Yes, that pair is legit! And such a good price
bluehalox
@shannahh you rock!! Thank you for taking the time to check 🙂
tigerkitty24
@shannahh when you get a chance, will you check out this post I tag you in. I don’t know how she has so many “authentic” pairs. Thanks in advance.
shannahh
@tigerkitty24 Hi! I am not as familiar with the slippers but they do look authentic! The boxes are definitely legit. Maybe she has some wholesale or distributor connections so can buy and sell at a lower price
heatherlea75
Oh no!!! I just bought a pair for $50 on here and have no idea if there real or fake. Will it show up if I tag you and it's already sold?
heatherlea75
@shannahh
shannahh
@heatherlea75 Hi! If you tag me on the actual boot listing that you bought, I will take a look - and then let you know here whether they appear authentic or how
heatherlea75
@shannahh Thank You! Doing it now!
shannahh
@heatherlea75 Yes, that pair is authentic! Super cute Bailey Bow boots and a great price! 😃 You did well
heatherlea75
@shannahh Thank you so much! I was so worried when I saw this! My daughter is going to be one happy girl for Christmas! Your amazing! Happy Thanksgiving!
shannahh
@heatherlea75 You’re welcome! Yes, that will be such a great present! They seem to be in really nice condition. That is one of my favorite UGG styles! And truly a super price
msdunbar83
Thanks so much! I was about to purchase uggs for my daughter.
shannahh
@msdunbar83 If they’re on here, feel free to tag me on the listing if you’d like - I can take a look and let you know here if they appear authentic or not 😊. I have seen quite a lot of $$$ fakes on her recently!
gymnastix
@amberbarr1220
gymnastix
@amberbarr1220 the uggs you just purchased from that woman are not real. Look at these pictures, her ugg’s look exactly like these. You can still cancel your order now if you click “accidental purchase”.
gymnastix
@issae the uggs you just purchased from that april girl are not authentic, her uggs look exactly like this! Cancel your order, get your money back! I hate seeing people get scammed on here.
shannahh
@carmenluvv Be warned - those “Bailey Bow Triplet” boots are definitely not authentic. If you don’t believe me or anyone else on that listing, the UGG website is a great source of comparison. You’ll see that authentic boots do not have that type of stitching around the top, and the letting on the tags is always perfectly spaced. That and the D pieces where the bow ribbons connect should have a double line of stitching.
shannahh
@tiffc1430 Here is another!
shannahh
@sksiefken Beware, if you bought a pair of those black “UGG” boots meant to look like the Bailey bow triple style, they are NOT authentic. If you are within 3 hours of purchase you can cancel the order. Otherwise you will need to notify Poshmark that you were sold knockoff boots
shannahh
@ihalphen and more :)
lacey1924
@shannahh if I tag you in some will you tell me if they are authentic or not?
shannahh
@lacey1924 Sure! I’ll take a look and let you know how they look to me 😊
shannahh
@lacey1924 Okay so all 3 of those pairs appear authentic! Super cute boots 😍
shannahh
@sylvsies One of my others 😊
lacey1924
@shannahh thank you
shannahh
@danieemariee000 more examples about how to spot fakes 😊
danieemariee000
@shannahh thank you
shannahh
@alrandall610 You’re welcome! I have a couple more of these sort of photo comparison “listings” in my closet here ... I’ll tag you on those as well 😊
If you ever want a second opinion on a pair of Uggs you are thinking of buying on here, feel free to tag me on the listing and I will take a look! Then let you know if they appear authentic or not. There are a LOT LOT LOT of fakes popping up this time of year. Be very careful with the Bailey Bow ones especially
shannahh
@alrandall610 I’m a bit obsessed and have had over 45 pairs 🙈. But I also like to buy, wear for a while, then resell! You can definitely find some great deals on here... but you also have to be careful about scammers! So I would definitely be happy to help you double check a listing before you buy so you don’t throw away good money on knockoff boots.
Is there any particular style you are looking for?
shannahh
@alrandall610 Those Bailey Bow ones really seem to be the #1 item for the most fakes I have seen on here recently. I’ll keep an eye out and tag you if I come across any great deals in that style!
Are you looking for the mini with one bow, the one with two bows, or the tall with three bows?
lacey1924
@shannahh I tagged you in one to look at for me again please and thank you
shannahh
@lacey1924 dang, why do people post only one pic?! 😩 From what I can tell they look legit, but I really wish she had more angles of it
lacey1924
@shannahh she replied when asked for more photos where it almost sounds fake
shannahh
@lacey1924 That WAS a weird reply! From her “seller”?? Hmmm.... 🤨. I know I personally would not want to buy a pair of boots on here unless I could see the exact ones I would be getting, and with multiple pictures for all the details!
lacey1924
@shannahh same here and I’ve never owned a pair of uggs so I don’t know what’s real and what’s a good buy or not
shannahh
@lacey1924 That one price on the blue boots is a STEAL - fantastic price for practically new boots
lacey1924
@shannahh I bought them. Thank your for your help. Wasn’t really looking for blue but for the price I thought I would try them
shannahh
@lacey1924 Heck yes! Glad you got them! If they were my size I would be all over that hehe
lacey1924
@shannahh ha ha my 3 year old got a pair of uggs before me!!
shannahh
@hisyelladreamm Hey be careful about those $100 “UGG” boots... they do not appear to be authentic. Just don’t want to see you get scammed!
hisyelladreamm
@shannahh Thank you. I knew they were looking weird. I just wanted to see if she’d be honest.
shannahh
@hisyelladreamm Yep, I saw that too... which I why I wanted to message you. I hate when people blatantly lie about boots being authentic! Those ones have soooo many signs of being fake ... the weird shiny fur, the boot shape, the heel tag and its placement, the foam-y looking soles, the color, binding, etc etc
hisyelladreamm
@shannahh I’ve bought a real pair on here, and I always have to look so hard to find them.
kimberlyw77
If you put a real,pair in comparison next to the pic of fake ones. Not so much explaining....
shannahh
@kimberlyw77 That’s my usual go-to! Advise people to compare their fake boots to pictures of the ones on the UGG site (or another reputable site). I have another photo post if you scroll through that does show side by side comparisons with real boots next to pics of the fakers 😊
tongyai
I thought also that UGGs only came in whole sizes?? Is this correct?
shannahh
@tongyai Hi! So some do come in half sizes. The new waterproof boots have half sizes, as do some other styles
Hopefully you’re just asking about UGGs in general and not about “buying” this post — this is just an informational listing to show what specific features to look out for when shopping online for Uggs 😊
shannahh
@kguinnane Hi, not for selling stuff I am not, just other photos on there. Just FYI this listing is meant to be an informational post for showing a bunch of photo examples of what NOT to buy. I am not selling boots for $3 😊
shannahh
@kguinnane Sure! That pair you have does appear to be authentic 😃
shannahh
@aftonmaehood And here is the final installment. This was actually the first guide I made on here, but I kept finding even more pics of fakery haha, hence the multiple posts
serenity_slime
I will bye a pair
shannahh
@serenity_slime Hello, as it says in the description I am not selling Uggs for $3. If anyone actually sold an item for $3 on here, they would end up with only a nickel (5 cents) after the Posh fee, which would not make sense. This is an educational listing showing specifically what features to look out for so you know what NOT to buy when shopping for Uggs. These are photos of fake boots that other people where selling.
blueeyes26
@shannahh I may need your input soon thinking about buying some I know they are knockoffs from the box that’s posted but idk I’ll keep u posted
shannahh
@blueeyes26 Of course! Feel free to tag me on the listing!
doxmomkaren
Your pics are hard to decipher. Are the all fakes except the one with the check mark?
doxmomkaren
@obrienkrystal same here. She needs to post comments on the pics.
shannahh
@doxmomkaren Hi! The description states what the signs of the fake boots are. In short, they are all pictures of fakes that other people were selling (except for the one with the green check mark). I’d be happy to go into more detail about how to spot knockoff boots!
shannahh
@doxmomkaren I have a couple other educational listings like this where there are comments on the photos directly.... I didn’t want to clutter everything up with words and block the features I was trying to point out haha
greeneyez228
Thanks for taking the time to post this information!!!! 💘
shannahh
@greeneyez228 You’re welcome! Hopefully it is helpful! If you ever would like a second opinion about the authenticity of a pair of Uggs you are thinking of buying on here, feel free to tag me on the listing! 😃

gremlins55
@shannahh I'm looking for some boots I will defiantly tag you on any I'm looking at.
shannahh
@gremlins55 Sure, no problem! Just tag me on whatever ones you are considering and I’d be happy to take a look 🧐
shannahh
@laurtias And finally here is the original installment I made. I kept discovering more and more fakes on here so I ended up having a huge collection of screenshots of knockoff boots
shannahh
@sylvsies I feel like I went overboard with circling stuff in photos on this one... it was those darn D pieces and the stitching at the top edges that really stood out and I wanted to make sure that was something people checked first
sylvsies
@shannahh I don't think you did, lots of examples need to be given for everyone to fully understand. We are total Ugg guru's lol but to people who don't know at all (aka 15 year old me), they will totally fall for these counterfeit things! You are a hero for making this guide!!❤️
shannahh
@sylvsies Ugh I feel like even just 2-3 years ago I was rather clueless myself! I had thankfully bought several authentic pairs before I accidentally fell for a knockoff pair. The moment I felt all the differences in the fur, outer material, soles, and saw the crappy seams compared to the authentic pairs, I became really interested in trying to get better at spotting fakes just by looking at the photos!
sylvsies
@shannahh once you fall for that fake pair there is no going back! I've unfortunately fallen for this TWICE lol embarrassing.... Like idk how much the fake ones are honestly worth, $5 maybe? It's so sad seeing people get ripped off hundreds from absolutely crappy fake Uggs. I will totally go out of my way not to warn others like you do. Not cool. Not fun. 👎👎👎
shannahh
@sylvsies I always wonder what the fakes are actually worth and what these resellers/wholesalers pay for them per pair! I was lucky that the fake pair I bought was only $20+shipping
What fooled me on my fake Bailey Button purchase was that it actually had a double row of stitching on the D pieces. But I failed to account for the stitching along the top edges & the overly shiny fur. I think the seller had said something about using a flash with her photos... 😑
redinsc
Thank you for doing this! I had to post a picture of some fake Iron Fist flats I received so people would know not to buy from this guy. The paint even peeled off the "leather"!! LOL! He cussed me out and blocked me before I could reply so I turned him in. PM did NOTHING.
redinsc
I was even nice and told him if they're knock offs just say that, people will still buy them and even though the entire insole fell out of both shoes before I put them on, I was just going to throw some Dr. Scholl's in and wear 'em! But then the pain peeled off....LOL! But he cusses ME out! They did give me my money back and I didn't ask PM for it, but I'm sure he's still selling. He said he bought them "off of a truck". LOL!
tln121064
Great info, thank you!
shannahh
@tln121064 Thank you!! Hopefully it is helpful 😃
tln121064
@shannahh. It definitely is helpful! I just checked my UGGs and it turns out, one pair is fake! I certainly wouldn't want to resell a fake pair!
shannahh
@tln121064 Oh no! 😨 Did you buy your fake pair on here?
tln121064
@shannahh. No, they we're a Christmas gift a couple of years ago. I was just thinking of selling a couple pair on here. I'm glad I saw your post so I know I'm not selling a fake. I going to just keep the knock off and sell the others. 😉
hobredaw000
so are you giving those boots away cause i want them
shannahh
@hobredaw000 None of these are mine to give away. As it says in the description, they are all examples of what to look out for so you know what NOT to buy. Those are all photos of knockoffs others were selling. This is meant to be an educational and informational post as it states above. Hopefully it is helpful!
hobredaw000
it was
and ok
desireeshores
i would like to have them but i don’t get paid tell next month
shannahh
@desireeshores I’m not selling these! As the description says, these are all photos of boots others were selling... it is meant to be an educational guide to show you what NOT to buy (like specific features to look out for). That way you can make sure you do not get tricked into buying knockoff boots!

devotedtbowner
Hey girl! I just tagged you to see if they are real or fake.
shannahh
@devotedtbowner Those Black Bailey Butto Triplets seem legit! I tagged my other good UGG-spotting friend on here to take a look as well :)
devotedtbowner
@shannahh thanks so much😘😘😘😘
mrsmurr
@dbrockaz64 this post should be helpful along with the other post in this closet on knock offs. Please do not tag the seller you just bought boots from, she’s clueless.
dbrockaz64
@mrsmurr no worries, no tagging from me. I have a feeling she’s young...I’m not sure. I don’t want to harass her, if the boots are fake Posh will take care of it. Just a hassle.
I buy LV’s and was so frustrated with some sellers, I just started paying full price at LV!! It’s easier and less of a hassle 🙄
Thanks for everything:)
mrsmurr
@dbrockaz64 you’re welcome. I try to help people out as much as I can on here and not in gage with people like her but she knows they’re fake and keeps trying to pass them off as legit. Then people like you have to go through the return hassle. I’m certain I’ve upset her with my dissertation on uggs but at the end of the day they’re fake. 🤦🏼♀️
dbrockaz64
@mrsmurr holy cow!! The girl that sold me the fake UGG boots is a little crazy! She has some friend that keeps sending me messages on all of my listings telling me we need to talk… She’s trying to tell posh that I ruined her boots and that’s why I want to send them back… I just got them 30 minutes ago I’m telling you she’s a little crazy of a seller! And the boots are clearly not real the UGG label is glued on 🤦🏻♀️
shannahh
@dbrockaz64 Her black boots definitely appeared counterfeit just based on the photos alone, and @mrsmurr and I can guarantee that chestnut pair is also counterfeit. She keeps trying to say that because they are a couple years old, the label is different. No. It is because they are knockoffs. UGG never made labels like that, nor do they make cheap, shiny, faux-looking “fur”. Are you filing for a refund?
shannahh
@dbrockaz64 you can chat in to UGG using their live chat feature on the website (do it soon because they close at I think 5PM mountain time zone) and send them photos of your boots. They can verify (lack of) authenticity, and then you can use the screenshots from your chat transcript in your notice to Poshmark when you file for a return stating that the item is a replica/knockoff. That is rather creepy she is having a friend comment on your listings.... yikes 😬

@shannahh She is now sending posh comments stating that I ruined her boots and sending pictures of labels that aren’t even the same boot! I’m telling you this kid is a little crazy, at least I think she’s a kid, she has another friend commenting on some of my other listings saying outrageous things… They are insane, I can’t believe I bought from her!
dbrockaz64
@shannahh yes, I applied for a refund, and she is fighting it...The sunburst bottom is off too...
shannahh
@dbrockaz64 You can tell Poshmark that multiple people already verified the boots to be knockoffs, and that you asked the seller to cancel but she went ahead and shipped anyways. I am positive she knew they were fake. I told her like last week or quite a while ago and she deleted the comments. So that shows her intent right there 😐. Is she seriously posting fake photos (of authentic boots/not her pair) and trying to claim you are scamming her by showing photos of a fake pair???
shannahh
@dbrockaz64 Chat in to UGG, submit all of the photos, get verification and then you will have all of that in writing. You also have in writing on her original post where she was told they were not authentic and yet insisted they were anyways, purposely trying to mislead you
dbrockaz64
@shannahh yes!! She is
mrsmurr
@dbrockaz64 good lawd! I too think she is young along with all her other junior high lunch friends. I agree with @shannahh get all the ammo you can and give it to Poshmark. I had to go through the list of her minions and block them. They were posting garbage on my closet. SMDH!

Thank you for your comments and tips to help others. I just received a pair of UGG boots and after seeing them in person, I believe they are fake. I value your opinion. I will tag you and if you could let me know. I'm suspicious with the sole (top), placement of the label on the back of the boot. There is no padded lining for your foot and the halo-gram label is different than other UGG boots I have. Thank you!
shannahh
@oaks6ers Hi! So that pair you just tagged me on is definitely not an authentic pair of UGG boots. It looks like they were going for a replica of the Bailey Button Tall boot. Some signs of yours being counterfeit are the stitches around the top edge, the size # stickers on the back heel, and the sole imprint like you have mentioned. It is poorly stamped and the dimensions are incorrect
shannahh
@oaks6ers Basically the sole imprint like you mentioned has way too much/wide of a space at the top and bottom, and the two boots do not appear symmetrical with their imprints. Also the placement of the back heel label seems to be a bit too high up.
So your boots do not have a hologram and QR code at all? Or do they just look fake?
oaks6ers
There is a hologram in the left boot but when I compared to authentic UGG, the label and the QR label are in the wrong order. Do you have suggestion on getting refund for this? Contacting seller first or Poshmark? They were listed as "UGG" which is a registered trademark and brand name. Would be different if she posted as suede ladies boot. Thank you....MUCH appreciated!
shannahh
@oaks6ers If you are still within your 3 day window from when you received the boots, and have NOT accepted the order yet, you can you into the purchases section and there GS a place to click “problems” with the order. One of the choices is that the item is not authentic
shannahh
@oaks6ers And then you would list all of the features that indicate they are knockoffs and not authentic UGG boots as advertised— the stitching around the top edges should not be there, the sole imprint is incorrectly & unevenly spaced and not symmetrical between both boots, the inside tags are wrong, etc etc. You can even add to the case screenshots of authentic Bailey Button Triplet boots from the UGG website as a point of comparison
oaks6ers
Yes I just received item this morning. I took photos of authentic UGG vs fake to support claim. Took a ruler to show the distance of the label and the curve of inner sole when you lay boot on its side (this was dramatically different). Authentic UGG when you would lay on its side and play a ruler on the inner sole side it is almost flat and opening. Filing under "not authentic". Thanks again.
z_ladybug
Thanks for the info! Unbelievable that anyone would try to buy from this listing! You could solve that, though, by editing the listing and choosing the “not for sale” button. 🙂
shannahh
@z_ladybug Hopefully this has been helpful! The problem with marking it “not for sale” (as I have in the past) is that it does not come up in search results at all then, and people who were looking for the post could not find it upon searching. So I figured it would be best to just keep it as the lowest amount so it can be located!
z_ladybug
@shannahh oh! I never thought of that. Good to have this info available to all.
roxann_stumbo
@shannahh They steal the boxes as well though. I've been a Store Manager for 20+ yrs and it is STILL JAW DROPPING what/how they steal AND the lengths they will go through to get it ...or sell it in this case! 🤯
shannahh
@roxann_stumbo Yes, I agree!! I see quite a fee fakes on here that actually have authentic boxes. It’s nuts!
I have also heard of people buying authentic boots from places like Nordstrom with their great return policy, then returning lookalike fakes in the original box, thus keeping the authentic boots for themselves AND getting their money back 😬

Good post thumbs up

@cutecrazygirl Hi! This is an educational post of photos to show what specific features to look out for when shopping online for Uggs. It won’t let me list this as free/$0.00, because $3 is the minimum allowed amount. If you ever need help authenticating a pair of boots, feel free to tag me on the listing and I will take a look!
staceysells05
Hi. Hopefully I did it correctly, but I just tagged you in a pair of Ugg shoes. How do you tell if shoes are authentic or not? It’s so sad they go to such trouble to make fake items. I can’t imagine how much money they could possibly make on them.
shannahh
@staceysells05 Hi! So I am not as good with the non-boot or slipper identification, mainly because I have not seen many actual fakes for those other styles of shoes. That pair you tagged me on appears to be authentic. I have never seen a fake pair before in that same style with the crystals. The boots seem to be the most heavily copied, as well as the slippers and some accessories
In any event, it seems like a good deal! Wish they were my size, I would have swooped them up haha
staceysells05
@shannahh thanks for the time you took to look at them. For the price and for how adorable they are, I guess even if they were fake they were worth the price. 😉😏

So If They Don’t Say “Ugg Australia” On The Heel, They Aren’t Real’💙.?
shannahh
@queenv_216 Hi! A lot (if not all) of the newest models actually just say UGG on the heel label tag. But there are a lot of other ways to tell differences between real and fake ones. I’d be happy to help if you are not sure about a pair!
bonsterb3
I think I got a fake can you help me confirm??? They are way too lightweight compared to my real uggs!!
shannahh
@bonsterb3 Hi! So some of the very new boots with the “Ugg-Pure” Wool are surprisingly lightweight. And also kind of cheap feeling in my opinion compared to the older UGG classic boots. But, some fakes are also weirdly light too!
Could you post pictures here of your pair? I’d be happy to take a look
bonsterb3
I posted as not for sale demonstration purpose only. Thanks so much ! Shame I really like them!!
bonsterb3
Thanks ! I posted not for sale ... demonstration purpose only.
xxcg
I bought a pair of uggs marrais from this site. they are almost an inch different and I can't get the left on . seller claims its a "fit" issue. I have really enjoyed my shopping here until now..
shannahh
@xxcg Eek, really? Maybe the pair you got is a knockoff one 😬. The fakes can definitely have weird heel heights and funky sizing. Did you just recently get it? Are you still within the time frame to request a return?
xxcg
I got them last Friday, immediately refused them and sent pictures of the difference. got a robot reply/ seller then changed the size on her listing. nothing from support about a return label even with my repeated pleas!! I am a seller on another site and would never do this to a buyer!!!
shannahh
@xxcg Ah no! That really sucks 😬. So you put in a return request on here? Sometimes it seems like it can take a few days to get a full response from customer service for your inquiry. It is definitely frustrating to wait! And I can see how it could be harder if the seller went and changed the listing size info ☹️. I wonder if things are delayed this week since Monday was a holiday ....
xxcg
letting my credit card handle it now. never had to do that but I want these boots out of here and lesson learned about devious people!
xxcg
finally got a response and return label. thanks for listening. and your sharing of all this great info on uggs,
shannahh
@xxcg Yay!! I’m glad you’re going to be able to return them 😃
xxcg
thanks again. I'm going to be shopping in your closet!
shannahh
@xxcg Thank you!!! I hope your return goes smoothly for your boots from here
mariannebernard
Hey!, thank you so much for this post, it really helps. I found some ugg on poshmark could you tell me if they are real or not ? In any case, thank you again :D
shannahh
@mariannebernard Hi, yes! I can take a look at them and then let you know here how they look. Just tag me on the listing 😊
shannahh
@szou189 Hi! I just saw those UGGs you tagged me on.... that pair is tricky 🤔🧐. The things that I wonder about are the width of the shaft part (it looks really narrow) and the strange font on the shoe box. I want to send that listing to one of my other friends on here who is also really good about spotting fakes and see what she thinks
shannahh
@mrsmurr Hi, I sent you a picture of a listing for @szou189 .... wondering what you think about that pair of UGGs! I didn’t want to have a bunch of comments on the sellers listing itself. It’s one of those pairs that just has an odd look to it 🤨
shannahh
@mariannebernard Hi again, yes that red Bailey Bow pair with the stripes appears authentic. It is a newer model with the back heel tag that just says UGG and not Australia also. The top edges, stitching, fur, coloring, shape, etc all look good. I’d see about the pricing though - maybe the seller is open to offers 🥰
mariannebernard
@shannahh awesome !
Thank you so much for taking your time to help me! You are awesome 😘
shannahh
@mariannebernard Awwwwa yay 🥰, thank you so much!! 💜

Whats wrong with the uggs?
shannahh
@staceyrodrig853 These are all photos of Uggs that were being sold by others that show what specific features indicate that they are NOT authentic. I am not selling any of them myself. This is meant to just be an educational and informational photo listing to show what to look out for when shopping online for UGG boots 😊

THANKS and I applaud the time you took to expose the shady stuff. Any input on how to clean real one that are dirty? Again thanks Emily
shannahh
@sdmom2014 Hi!! I am so glad this is helpful 😃. There is a great UGG brand care kit that you can buy which cleans the boots very well. I think you can get it on Amazon and it is not too expensive. It comes with the cleaning stuff, as well as protective spray, and a freshening spray things. As well as a brush, if I am remembering it correctly. I bought it a couple years ago to clean all of my Uggs and it worked nicely!

@htimse Hi!

you can definitely tell the quality by the craftsmanship. unfortunately, many people care more about an exposed label on their wares than a quality piece. Great, informative post. ❤
lindsaynixolexx
I got a pair of bailey bows for 80$ brand new in box from a shoe store on here that I think went out of business. Sometimes a cheap price tag doesn’t always mean it’s fake. And a lot of the time you can tell when uggs are fake.
thatgemgirl
Thank you for this post! 💀😂 ppl have actually been purchasing this post?! Hilarious!
pradapurse
@vickey229 this one is better. Ugg never does plastic.
shannahh
@lindsaynixolexx Oh yes, not all price tags are bad depending on where the boot is from or what the tag itself actually looks like. These particular tags shown that are punched through the boot itself are no good. It’s crazy to punch a hole into a $$$ boot anyways 😄. I agree — in person it can be a lot easier to feel out the fakes based on shoddy materials and weird faux fur

@dbrockaz64 I've been reading thru the comments and I'd appreciate if you could tell me the name of the seller who was such a problem with the ugg boots, just don't @ them. I like to read thru things like this and follow cool people and block problem people. thank you much.

@xxcg would you please tell me the name of the seller, just don't @ them? I like to block problematic people when I hear of them. ty.

I might have bought fakes. The UGG back of heel tag was nicely stitched but I just realized it only said UGG and not with the registered symbol. I am new to Uggs. Maybe you can take a look. I bought red bailey with a velvet bow.

@blor88 Hi! Those look good! That is a newer style based on the back heel label and sole imprint pattern 😀. Great price!!

I’ve never purchased Uggs before, but have a pair in the way and now praying I didn’t get taken. 😳🤦🏼♀️
This might seem like a dumb question but I was noticing that some of the boxes in the pictures say “made in China” obviously they are a product out of Australia. Is this a for sure no-no or are do they outsource production through China? Just curious. Thanks. 😊
shannahh
@surfmom23 Hey! So UGGs actually are made in China.. that “Australia” part is just the name of it. The “UGG” boot style itself is a generic type of boots of that sheepskin style. Did you buy your boots on here? If you want to tag me on the listing, I can take a look and let you know here if they appear authentic or not
surfmom23
@shannahh hi there! Thanks for the reply! No I bought them on Masseys due to this reason and then after reading through the comments realized I might have been swindled anyway. I went onto their website and the photo of the booties I bought said UGG on the bottom of the sole so I think I’m good. 😊 They are the Reid booties and incredibly hard to find a grey pair in a 7.5/8 so I was excited to snatch up the last pair for $80!
surfmom23
What do you think about these?? $30 🤩

Hey! Thanks for taking the time to post all this. I tagged you on a pair that’s different from all these. Can you check them out and let me know if you think they’re real? I’m a newbie to uggs. Thanks!

I have a question maybe somebody can answer for me?🤷🏼♀️
I saw a post on UGG sizing a while back, and some were saying a size 6 in kids, fit like a size 8 in women's. I was curious if this is true, and it is! But my question is, if a 6 in kids fits like an 8 in women's, how does a size 7 in women's fit??
All other shoes, I wear a 7.5
The 6 in UGGs I have, is a wide, and kinda snug. If I go up to a 7, would it feel like a true 7 then, and be too small for me, since I wear a 7.5 in other shoes?
shannahh
@nikwissman UGG sizing can be tricky! I wear a 7.5 or 8 in “normal” shoes. I’ve only owned one pair of the kids UGGs, and they are a size 6. They fit me just fine! The classic UGG boots (like the basic plain ones) have run larger in my opinion. In those I usually get a 7. In some of the fancier styles like the Bailey Bow UGGs I get a size 8. I would recommend trying different pairs & styles on in person at a store, then maybe ordering that type online if you find a better deal!

You’re the best for this!!! Thank you

I just wanted to tell you thank you for making this post! I’ve been trying to find a pair of Bailey bow uggs to match my daughters.. I won’t wear them very much so I wasn’t trying to spend over $200 on them… there is a page on the ugh website for counterfeit products and it’s super helpful too.

lazyblueberry
Hi there! I know you’ve got a billion comments on this post but was wondering if you’re still willing to be tagged in listings to help people verify? Totally understand if not! ❤️
shannahh
@lazyblueberry Hi! Yes, you may certainly tag me in some listings. I will take a look and then let you know here 😊. I’m going to bed soon so I may not get to see them until the morning
lazyblueberry
@shannahh aww thank you so much! I really appreciate it!! I’ll tag you now but totally okay to wait!
shannahh
@lazyblueberry Both of those looked great so I just went ahead and replied on the actual listings 😄. If they had been sketchy I would have just replied here. But they both seemed perfect and authentic! I just wonder about the silver sharpie marks on the soles of the one pair…. Maybe that was to prevent returns from where ever they got them?? Idk!
lazyblueberry
@shannahh Okay awesome! Thank you so much again!! I really appreciate it… I don’t usually buy pricier items on Posh so I wanted to be absolutely sure. And I def don’t have the knowledge you do! Have a great night and hope you and your fam have a wonderful holiday season! ❤️🙏🏻
shannahh
@lazyblueberry You are very welcome! I am happy to help! Thank you 💕🎄

Saw your post. You have an eye for something I would never know about. Where do people buy fake UGG for resale? I cannot imagine any USA company would go out of their way to do a copy cat brand when they would easily be suid.
horseforme619
@shannahh wow people !! get with it!! r u serious!! stop asking if u can buy !!!
she is trying to help us SPOT FAKE ones.!!! She is not selling anything!!!! give me a break!
anyway. thank u for this post . I will pay more attention to it now!
horseforme619
what if they have tags in both boots? and also do they have to have that holograph in the left boot? The one I have has a tag in both boots. and then there's a red marker line through the barcode on the box & also a red marker is a tag on the inside. what do you think does that sound like a fake to you? if you're able to see this .Thank you so much!
horseforme619
also does it have to have Australia under the word UGG? the ones I got at the store don't.
poshbear8
hi, thank you for making this- so helpful!! could you help verify a pair of boots for me? (I'll send a link if you are comfortable with clicking, if not I can just send the post title/seller?)

if this isn't the most confusing post ever I don't know what is?!?! it would be more helpful to have a fake vs real pic side by side vs all the hullabaloo with colors and circles all over the dam place!!!

I just bought some on Posh (same ones as I had before) and they look a little different and are bigger and yet they are the same size. I’m so confused. Can I send someone some pics to help me determine if they are fake?
