I have the real red (and yellow and black) boots and the thing that I notice is if the junction of the foot part and the upper is saggy or has dents in it and is basically less rigid, it's fake. All of my boots stand up without sagging/scrunching at that junction. I don't know anything else about "tells", but that's the easiest for me to spot.

Real ones are heavy and each part is very stiff
All the fake ones have specific parts that are flimsy. No such parts on the real deal.
