Every pair of authentic Nike shoes comes with an SKU number that is identical to the SKU number on their box. If the numbers are missing or do not match, they are likely fakes. Check the tongue label. Often, fake Nike manufacturers put outdated sizing labels on the inside of the shoe.

The model number of your shoes is typically located under the size and above the barcode on the tag. It will be a six digit number followed by a three digit number (Example: AQ3366--601). Find the model number on the box if the tag is missing.

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.

1. Look for official logos: Authentic Nike shoes usually have some logos and logos on them, such as the Nike logo and other branding. You can check to see if these logos match official Nike products. On the official website, you can check images of the logo and logo to see if your shoes are the same as the original.
