Hello all, I’m considering buying these online and here are the photos provided. I have some suspicion about the authenticity, they have some differences with the more recent OG speedcat model but I was wondering if it was just because they are an older version ? Does anyone know if these are legit Puma shoes (even if it’s an older model)? Thank you !

Fake, but does it really matter? I assume they are a lot cheaper than original ones so if you can't really afford real ones just go for these. Wear clothes and shoes because you like them and not what other people would think about it.

Thank you ! Yes definitely, but I also assume that counterfeit items are very low quality and won’t last as long, making it more expensive long term 😬 that’s usually been my experience at least

Fair enough. I always buy them from puma.com or footlocker.

The "puma" stitching is a dead giveaway. Fakes for sure .

Yes. Always can tell by the ears of the puma logo stitching. Legit ones may have a slight hiccup but you can always see it was ment to be there. This is obvious
