In my many years as a shoe lover and collector I never really bothered to know the difference. I always bought any design that I felt was new or matched my taste. Most people work with a budget some go for the label tags, they want to rock designers and flaunt it.
A shoe doesn’t have to be very expensive to be authentic. Was it designed for you or you’re going out of your way to purchase what you don’t really need or like. Can you put them in your shelf and come back after some months and it remains intact.
You need to know there’s a big difference between synthetic and real leather. Some shoes weren’t designed to be kept in a place that is moist, some were made by materials that can easily tear and peel off. When you pick up a shoe and you see handmade written on it. You should know it took a lot of craftsmanship to bring that to life. It was solely designed for a purpose and to have a longer shelf life.
I feel you should buy something that will last longer than buy a cheaper item that tends to be replaced in short period.
