Christian Dior B30 sneaker / trainer by Ice cream
Ice cream has always been a popular choice in the replica market for Dior sneakers, especially the Dior B30 in black. In this post, I will review the flaws of their version and provide the seller’s reference link at the end.
Flaw 1
Point 1: The double stitching above the midsole is wider on the Ice Cream pair and narrower on the authentic pair.
Point 2: There isn’t a visible white line below the character “C” on the authentic pair, but the Ice Cream version includes it.
Point 3: Building on point 2, the authentic pair lacks a white line where the Ice Cream version has one.
Point 4: The toebox shape differs; the authentic pair’s toebox is well-defined.
Point 5: The black patch above the DIOR logo is closer together on the authentic pair, whereas the Ice Cream version has more spacing.
Flaw 2
Point 1: As noted in Flaw 1, the stitching is wider on the Ice Cream version and narrower on the authentic pair.
Point 2: The stitching on the Ice Cream pair isn’t as tightly knit as on the authentic pair; this flaw is subtle and might be considered a minor nitpick.
Point 3: The Ice Cream version features white lines in places where the authentic pair does not.
Point 4: The black patch above the midsole is longer on the Ice Cream version and shorter on the authentic pair.
Point 5: The mesh is narrower on the Ice Cream version and wider on the authentic pair.
Flaw 3
Point 1: The CD emblem differs between the pairs in terms of line thickness, border stitching, materials, and shape.
Point 2: There isn’t much gap on the authentic pair, yet the Ice Cream version has a noticeable gap.
Point 3: The mesh quality differs; the Ice Cream mesh has holes that are larger than those on the authentic pair.
Point 4: The midsole lines are more prominent on the authentic pair compared to the Ice Cream version.
Flaw 4
Point 1: The emblem differs between the pairs; the text on the authentic pair is much bolder, and the lines are visible. It seems like the emblem protrudes from the Ice Cream pair but not on the authentic pair.
Point 2: The Ice Cream toebox is slightly pointier compared to the authentic pair.
Point 3: The overall shape of the sneaker differs; the authentic pair has an hourglass shape, while the Ice Cream version resembles an oval shape.
Conclusion
Overall, the Ice Cream Dior B30 in black colorway is decent but not the best. I wouldn’t complain if I got my hands on it, but the pricing is steep compared to other sellers in the market, even though Ice Cream is known as a top-tier seller of Dior sneakers. This pair would be hard to call out in public as it requires close inspection. I plan to purchase this pair and will review it again once I have it. As always, peace out and stay vibey.
