All Nike shoes are packed inside a box with a certain label and tag. The colour and print of the box usually vary depending on the style but mainly the boxes revolve around the colors red, orange, and brown. The print on the box should have the size, serial number, and style, with a barcode.

Nike neck tags and wash tags can be used to authenticate and identify Nike clothing items, and they also function as an interesting reference for Nike's logo and tag history.

The model number of your shoes is typically located under the size and above the barcode on the tag.
