The point, after all, of using the barcode scan test, is to weed out the majority of fakes available on the market. It’d be a mistake to believe a passed barcode test implies that the pair is authentic. The barcode scan test works only one way. Only a failed barcode test would automatically classify the pair as fake. However, if the barcode test is passed, it doesn’t mean the pair is definitely authentic - anything is possible, including a scammer taking the original box and swapping them with fake shoes.Ī passed barcode test does not automatically classify the pair as authentic. Here’s where the reader has to judge - if there are some or a lot of confirmations on Google for that code (thus, the size-colourway combination), the box is authentic. What our barcode scan function does is it generates a Google search for the UPC/EAN product code. If the fake manufacturers bought a retail US9.5, the replica US9.5 will have the correct code - but the rest of the size run will not. Sometimes, though, the barcode is correct on the fake shoe box: a broken clock is right twice a day.

If anything, this serial number is the last 0.5% in the process of perfectly replicating authentic shoes.
SERIAL NUMBER VS UPC FULL SIZE

SERIAL NUMBER VS UPC HOW TO
We’ll explain below how to do that easily. How do we authenticate through the barcode test, then? We will be checking whether our barcode matches other authentic barcode labels on the market. At the end of the day, people wear the product, not the box. What they do, in fact, is they probably buy a few authentic pairs and focus on the shoe rather than the box. They would do that if they would want to get this unique code right for every fake they produce. Think of it this way: fake manufacturers will not waste time and money (especially money) on buying every single size of the shoe they replicate. Then, there’s another one barcode for the same Yeezy Boost 350 Oxford Tan, size US11. For every size and colourway combination, there’s one specific code.įor instance, there is one certain barcode for Yeezy Boost 350, Oxford Tan colourway, size US10. Here’s why the barcode scan test is so important. Why should I use the barcode scan test to legit check? Unique serial number Otherwise, if your sneaker’s release date is older than 6 months from the moment you’re reading this, read further. If your shoe is recently released, you might want to read the “Barcode Scan” article for new releases. The first thing we recommend when legit checking an item is scanning the barcode on the box.
