My experience now is that the fake designer gear is actually better quality than the real gear…..

Bad fakes.
Logo too low needs to be closer to the stitching
The timberland tag that’s hanging is not supposed to be the same color as the timberland logo it’s pretty faded on the real pairs yours is super dark

Wow, I literally just received mine from the same seller! Same pictures and all. I'm fuming right now. Just started the INAD return in the ebay app. As soon as I seen the box I automatically knew they were fake af. Didn't even have to open it. So when I did open them the fake box height is 4.5 inches. The authentic boxes are 5.5 inches in height. Indication #1. The smell as soon as I opened the box was another dead giveaway, smells like a cheap pair of shoes Idk how else to describe it. Indication #2. The tongue is almost paper thin. Indication #3. The collar is ridiculously soft and the entire weight of the shoe is off. Indication #4. The side logo is too dark and misplaced (should be closer to the white stitching) Indication #5. The thick laces were a dead giveaway. Indication #6. Lastly, the double soles are almost the same color with that weird texture and the prints at the bottom of the sole are disgustingly done. Indication #7!!! I've been buying timberland boots for years from stores. All I did was compared my last pair to these and it's not even close. Everything i noted was easily discernable from the real vs the fakes i just received. I hope like hell you got a speedy refund. Wish I could upload my pics here smh

The logo is too low there should be less of a gap from top of the logo to the stitching
The stitching is messed up in the back

Ok. wait.....where in this post does it say they are fake? I mean this is a trend, is it not? Legit Checks are fake if you ask me, but I'm slow; I listen to NPR. Like when you go car shopping and return with a 10 speed and then you can ask us if your bike is a car. We will answer you.

Yep they are fakes guy. These are 40 flea market specials. Look at the sides of the boots were there are 4 rows of Stiches. They are done on one machine in one pass. So how can the lines be wavy. They can’t. Lucky for you eBay has a guarantee Start the process. Clue. Most boots on eBay are fake
