Step 1Get familiar with Gucci shoe seasons, styles and designers. A Gucci athletic shoe created by Tom Ford in 1994 will not have the same design aesthetic as one crafted by Frida Giannini in 2007. To verify your Gucci shoes are fake, peruse current magazines that feature Gucci's designer goods for men and women. Magazine featured on newsstands will have advertisements with Gucci shoes for the current season. For example: A Gucci shoe advertised in “GQ Magazine” or “W Magazine” will feature shoes for the current fashion season.
