Verification

Verify authenticity. Confirm your grade. Protect your investment.

What Verification Means & Why It Matters

Verification is GSC’s way of giving buyers and collectors complete confidence in every graded pair. Each shoe certified by GSC is assigned a unique Submission Number and QR code that links directly to its official grading record in our system.

When you verify a pair, you are confirming that:

  • The shoe has been authenticated and graded by Graded Shoes Company.
  • The grade and details match the physical label.
  • The item has not been altered or tampered with.

In today’s resale and collector market, counterfeits, label swaps, and altered products are real risks. Verification protects buyers, sellers, and collectors by ensuring transparency, authenticity, and trust at every step.
