Flaw 1
A common error in most Alexander Mcqueen sneakers is the curvature of the collar, where most reps still get it wrong.
The curvature of the collar on Koala’s sneaker is 70 to 80 degrees upward, where it should be a smooth curve upwards on the authentic sneaker. It is hard to tell the difference when you are wearing it, but for a person with a trained eye, it gives their fake nature away relatively quickly.
Flaw 2
Let’s have a quick look at the sneakers’ back rear print. The similarity between Koala’s sneaker and the authentic sneaker is high, but there’s a tad of difference in the font weight. On Koala’s sneaker, the font weight is heavier than the authentic sneaker just by looking at the letter “Q” and is missing a stroke. This is a minor flaw and is just nitpicking on Koala’s sneaker.
Flaw 3
The words on the tongue of the sneaker have a few differences when comparing both images.
Koala’s words on the tongue are thinner than the authentic ones, and the letter “U” placement is slightly higher than the “Q”, where the alignment should be the same as the authentic sneaker tongue. Next is the letter “r” on Koala’s tongue, where the tip is not rounded compared to the authentic.

Now that I have the retail on hand, the Koala’s shoelaces are thinner than the authentic ones. The shoelace’s quality feels a little cheap. However, you can purchase better-quality shoelaces on third parties websites and replace them. This flaw isn’t a big issue.
Flaw 5
I found out that the spacing between the perforated holes on Koala’s sneakers is wider than the authentic ones, and this could be a spot in close proximity. As shown in the image above, the first perforated hole on both sneakers are the same, but the positioning of subsequent perforated holes is different.

The toe box on Koala’s Alexander McQueen shoes differs from the original ones. The originals bring out the lovely arch design that keeps your toes comfortable. On the other hand, Koala’s toe box arch is not as curvy as the original ones, but it could be hard to tell if you put them on.
Conclusion
These minor flaws in Koala’s Alexander Mcqueen sneaker and believed to have more minor imperfections. Don’t get me wrong, this is a good rep without any significant flaws. Even getting called out in public with a trained eye is hard, and you would just be getting compliments for your sneaker. Rep Preview Studio has plans to purchase this in a few different colorways for an in-depth YouTube review. As always, peace out and stay vibey.
