The photos look genuine but the English is pretty broken and looks a little too good to be true - http://www.christianlouboutinshoesshop.co.uk/christian-louboutin-black-patent-leather-with-black-toe-pump-p-3.html?number_of_uploads=0
Real or fake?

Those 2 look slightly less suspect but am still a little cautious. Do want to get her a pair, but not at retail prices.

There seem to be loads of sites offering them around te same price, I'd doubt all are fake.
Are they last seasons shoes or something?

Some are current. None of them give a definitive answer as to being 100% genuine, although I think the last 2 look better. They retail at £450ish so its a fair wedge of a saving if they're real!

Well she's a bit of a shoe freak so she might but i'll cook up a story if need be. Think i'm go for one of the last ones cos the first link does look just a little too good to be true.

At £500 for a pair of shoes id rather have the copies! The originals probably cost the firm £5 a pair to make!

they are all fake.
Louboutin wont allow anyone to sell from a site using their name - thats from their website. They also list all websites/shops allowed to sell them so only those are real.

That I was
But still, its fairly common to find well made sites pretending to offer real goods at real prices yet when you get them things are actually fake.
