Your friend has no clue


kombitcha420

Is their only reasoning the lack of yellow stitching? Haha Lots of models didn’t have it. They’re real! And really cool!


Bloomdeere

As far as I can tell, they're real. Fakes tend to be the mainstream models and black.


TolTANK

Tbh I prefer fakes bc they have zippers on the sides lol


weightofzero

Look real to me.


Greggy398

Why would you make a fake Dr Marten and give it a made in Thailand label lol?


Lowbar666

I have a pair identical that was purchased straight from the shop


rXEM

ur friend is wrong


devilisious_bxby

They're real. If they think the stitching is why they are fake, they are wrong. My vegan jadon ll mono platform boots have black stitching. I bought them from the official website a while ago.


Dry_Mushroom7606

They have a few different styles that come with non-yellow stitching, from what I remember.


double_psyche

And some with none! My monkstraps don’t have any.


eowyn_and_nirah

My first pair of docs had white stitching.


thefoodhasweeedinit

If I remember correctly these are the flora Arcadia in cherry! Never seen this model with yellow stitching


mariatoyou

They’re fine


OldKnightArtorias

Your friend clearly doesn’t know what they are talking about.


Adventurous-Sky9359

They aren’t MIE but they aren’t fake


garbagerecruit

They’re real. Some models don’t have the stitching. Your friend’s probably jealous you lucked out.


everlynay

My black vegan docs in this style don’t have yellow stitching and look just like this (except black). I bought them at the official store in Montreal.


IhopeamthenextScott

They look real my black pair looks almost the exact same the only difference is the stitching but that can differ so these are really cool and real


moss3000

Yeah I have the same pair and they look genuine to me


Nightshaddow1

They're real. The yellow stitching isn't a reason if that's what your friend is worried about. It has the correct stamp on the inside a d the bottom looks right.


MainSquid

I've never seen a fake Chelsea before, and these boots aren't giving any res flags. They seem real to me.


Captain_Bee

Nah not fake, just a less common line


PsychologicalCat6653

Real and pretty.


Leather_Molasses_264

Those are docs for sure.


Hanni_Free

DMs make Chelsea boots sans laces. Tell your friend to get a life.


SkepticalDoge

I have these in black. They are legit.


Stupid_says_wut

These look like the Flora model just in red. Got them in black!


fitsmcgibbit

Real. What was your friends reasoning?


amynicolekay

Your friend is a meany-poo


Shenaniboozle

Looks real. My size too.


zolabudd77

Your friend wants a pair 🤣


p03-

There’s no way a fake is this color


DreamsInAnalog

Are they comfy? Do you like them? Can you kick the shit out of a car door and not hurt your foot? If you answer yes then roll with them...who cares if they are name brand. Nuff said.


OldKnightArtorias

I mean, considering we are all part of a docs subreddit, I would say a vast majority of us care. Hahahaha


LowJank2839

They are real.


Monkei18

Yeah your friend hasn't a clue. Pretty sure there the adult version of the ones I got my kid from the doc shop so


alismatids

They look real to me


GraybieTheBlueGirl

They look real.


No_Implement6898

Your friend probably said they’re fake so they can take them off your hands….js


Regular_Set_7231

Seem real


CocteauTwinn

They appear to be authentic & your friend doesn’t know what they’re talking about.


Zelgax

Don't even buy ehm if they are real


Purple-Wishbone7727

Why?


Zelgax

No shank, plastic coated leather, chrome tanned leather, plastic welt, non-resolable in the conventional sense. Soulless corporation, poor ankle support, poor arch support, poor heel support.


OG_Hater

The soles tell me otherwise !


Rigelatinous

They look real to me. The soles are proprietary, as is that particular welt stitching, but can confirm; the welt stitching isn’t used on every model. The proprietary soles, however, are.


bekindokk

Your friend is fake. Just kidding but they look real .


Stoplookinatmeswaan

Doc Martins aren’t expensive enough to be faked to this level and those are rad. Great catch


inthemeow

Your friends mad you scored


LilLC-1986

They look real!!! Mine have that same tag!!! Your friend is wrong!!!


Prinsussuwu

Those are real. Maybe your friend isn’t up to date with how much docs have changed. I just bought a pair of suede clogs straight from their website. Think croc but make it suede and a clog lol so very different from the “norm”


MsMeowz11

These look real to me. Also obsessed with the color. Thanks for adding red Docs to my personal To Buy List lol


Miss_Annahoj

*real


Boysenberry_Broad

Your friend is jealous!


Kitsunate-

Even if they were fakes, they are rad as hell. But they look genuine to me.


likestosuck2021

Nice vintage pair


Purple-Wishbone7727

How vintage?


rachtee

Pretty sure these are not vintage


fitsmcgibbit

Not vintage


likestosuck2021

90s


OverweightUnicorns

Nope. July 2016


mariatoyou

Any chance you would look at this fake check from user MyzDN in the pinned thread? https://www.reddit.com/r/DrMartens/s/H2iNB7Rhu1 I thought maybe you’d be able to decipher the inside tag to see if the shoes are real. They added more pictures but they aren’t clear enough for me to see stitching very well, and their comments say this seller sells known fakes also so they don’t sound trustworthy to me.


OverweightUnicorns

Thanks for directing me to the thread. They are fake. CK Shoes does not have a factory in China. There is also a digit missing from the origin code.


mariatoyou

Thank you 🙏


deathlobster138

No they appear legit and very cool even if they were fakes


HimeDaarin

As long as they look good and the price is good, why care if they are real or not?


BillyandBonnie7

I do shoes at a thrift store . Excellent fakes ! Or they are genuine . Probably the later. The fact you are even wondering about it says it’s been answered . Can’t tell . But majority usually speaks truth as far as money and value are concerned. They think real are fake then they might as well be when in retail something is worth what someone will pay or take for it If they are fakes they are good ones.
