Fantastic deal... Love my unlined Harrow. I just noticed they are all F width though.

Can someone help me and let me know if these are authentic EG shoes?

I don't know this model, but everything looks authentic to me.

Anything in particular that i should look for?

These are the bottoms

These are the bottoms

Don't know specifically, but, as I said, they look absolutely fine and authentic, also from the bottom view.

Otherwise formulated, why do you have doubts?

Price at which they are being offered to me, little under 300 USD and they are apparently new

Have never seen knock off EGs…

Don't think people are faking EG. Plus it comes with an original box, seems like a great deal if you know they'll fit and like them

I have seen advertisements for knock off EGs coming out of China. I even ordered a pair of "Galways" to see what I was going to get for whatever the ridiculous price was. What came was nowhere near a pair of EGs versus a high top "Gucci" sneaker...so I couldn't even cut the things open and compare the cheap cra*#y knockoff to actual EGs (as was my original plan). I myself have never actually seen a knock off EGs as all my EGs were ordered from reputable stores and I'm not into the vintage/2nd hand scene

 

[acconrad]

Yeah I mentioned in the real/fake thread, I think the reason for the heavy discount is that they're an odd shoe in a discontinued style. They have a lot of embellishments so it's lack of popularity/versatility is why it's being listed for so far below retail.

 

[mikevac97]

Thanks everyone, so they are most likely authentic is the conclusion?

This unusual derby looks completely legitimate. It’s likely a sample or from a small special order run.

Edward Green has produced oxfords and derbies with this brogue pattern in the 90s and/or earlier 2000s. I have seen versions of this type of shoe in person and also popping up on eBay.

Here is a link to a similar Oxford with that brogue pattern: https://theshoesnobblog.com/i-love-edward-greenand-you-should-too/

If you like them, buy them. The price seems rather attractive. Cheers and good luck!
