I can't be sure but these shoes look a little &#34;off&#34;, like counterfeit Cole Haan. I have a few pair of Cole Haan shoes and these just don't seem to be the same quality that I have come to know and love from Cole Haan. They seem fine otherwise. The velvet part of the shoe looked a little weathered but I wiped it and it was fine. I'll definitely go back to purchasing my shoes from Nordstroms to ensure authenticity.
