Authenticity for Appearance hinges on the classic checkerboard pattern’s alignment and print clarity. Inspect each square for crisp edges, consistent spacing, and uniform ink. Check the side stripe’s color saturation and stitch density along the outsole, ensuring no misaligned seams or smudges that look rushed. Compare factory badges and dot placement under bright light, and verify repeat accuracy across panels.

Label verification relies on font shapes, silhouettes, and placement consistency. Confirm the label uses the exact font weight and spacing used by the brand, with clean, unfrayed edges. Compare serials or size codes to official POIZON reference materials, and inspect holographic features or QR indicators only visible under correct lighting. Also check stitching around label borders and ensure instructions match.
